I certainly do not wish to take away from the 5 star reviews left before our stay, however, had I known some specifics prior to booking, I’m not sure I would have stayed here. Each family dynamic is different and this may be the perfect home for some but it was unfortunately not what we expected. I will start with the positives, though. The owners/property managers were very attentive and quick to respond when a need came up. The outdoor space is also lovely. Exquisite landscaping, freshly paved driveway, and a nice deck as well as front porch. The location is also perfect. An easy walk to local bakeries (Slice of Heaven, Village Hearth) and other restaurants, quick walk to the playground which was a blast for my sons and then a short drive to the market and to the beach (Mackerel Cove is the best!). The interior of the home, however, was much older than we anticipated. The stairs are not uniform heights, causing all of our guests to use more caution. And yet it still resulted in my young son falling down at one point. The sinks are also very small in both bathrooms that I couldn’t wash my face over the sink without water getting all over the bathroom floor. Lastly, there were ants. Large carpenter ants as well as small ants throughout the kitchen and dining room which made eating and cooking less pleasant. We have been vacationing on Jamestown for nearly 20 years and unfortunately for the price per week, we did not feel satisfied with our stay.

This place was perfect—even better than the photos! Very charming and decorated with an artist’s eye. It was also really well-appointed, with everything we could possibly need. The road it’s on is a little busy, but it wasn’t an issue. We would definitely come back to Cherrystone!

A comfortable property in a convenient location for the local bars / restaurants. The house was clean with comfortable beds.

This house was the perfect house for our family. Quiet neighborhood, everything we needed close by in the house was the perfect size, clean and comfortable.

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage--it's truly charming! The cottage was centrally located and we were glad to be able to walk to so many places. A cafe, grocery store, ice cream shop, and the main drag with restaurants and shops were all within 1/4 to a 1/2 mile. We also chose this cottage for its proximity to Jamestown's fantastic playground. Just a five minute walk, we visited every day. We spent a lot of time outdoors exploring the island's beautiful beaches, forts, farms, hiking paths, and other scenic sights, including the spectacular sunsets/moonrises at Beavertail! The closest beaches are 10-15 minute walks away (East Ferry and Mackeral Cove)-both are great for younger kids. The cottage was quite comfortable for our family of three. The beds were comfortable, the linens were high quality, the kitchen had everything we needed. The a/cs on the 2nd floor kept the bedrooms cold. The listing does not note that there is no a/c on the first floor; however, Genevieve graciously installed one at our request. It was much appreciated as the weather was unusually hot. We would love to stay here again!

We stayed here for a few days for our trip to Newport and loved how close it was to Newport but fell in love with the town of Jamestown. The house was close to everything in town, and Genevieve was so accommodating! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

We truly enjoyed the property. The location was great and loved the indoor and outdoor environment. It was roomy enough for my family of five and the kids like their own space. Genevieve was helpful when little issues arose and was very attentive. We will definitely be back next summer. Thank you!!!!

A clean, well landscaped property. Walk to town. Very easy.
