We rented this place for my all of my groomsmen plus a few other for wedding weekend and it couldn’t have been a better experience. Matt had the place super clean, updated and even left out some drinks for my guys. We felt like we could relax and enjoy ourselves and matt did a great job of communicating his expectations so that we could be respectful of the home. Overall best experience.

What an amazing stay! Matt’s place comfortably slept myself and 6 girlfriends and was in excellent proximity to the beaches and lots of activities in downtown Newport! We really enjoyed having a nice big yard, great deck, and use of the fire pit. The house was clean and well stocked with the essentials. Matt was an excellent communicator and had so many great suggestions for dining and activities in the area. I would highly recommend this property to anyone, it was the perfect place for a weekend getaway with a group!

I stayed here with a group of 10 girls for the weekend. The house had everything we needed and fit all of us. The backyard was huge. Matt was very accommodating and provided us with recommendations for activities and dining in Newport. The weekend we stayed was very hot and we were not aware there was only one window AC unit and two fans. Each of the bedrooms had a ceiling fan, but the temperature in the house was very uncomfortable. Especially with a house full of people making it warmer. It's fine that the house didn't have central air, but with a limited number of fans I just wish I had known to check into this before and would have brought some more. I was also disappointed with state of the house upon arrival. The condition of the house was not as we expected based on the pictures including the water feature was run down, outdoor cushions dirty, moldy coffee maker, wet carpet from carpets being shampooed shortly before we arrived. Overall we had a great weekend with the house being in a central location to downtown Newport. Thank you!

I rented the home for 4 nights for a family reunion consisting of 4 adults and 5 kids (4 of which are teenagers), and my overall impression was disappointing. Matt our host was great and very accommodating and communicative throughout entire process, but we were dissatisfied with our overall experience because we did not enjoy the condition of the home. The photos show a very clean, updated and tastefully decorated space, however there are areas that were not. Some were dirty: carpeted indoor staircase, the outdoor furniture, garages, trash receptacle areas, wasp nest), some were broken or not working properly: (front entry step hazardously detached, broken or missing window screens, some towels/linens (ripped or bleach stained), dishwasher and dryer would not close without being propped), and due to summer high humidity and NO central air conditioning, the basement living area felt damp and had a musty, pet odor (there is a dog cage in dining room), and only 1 of our children was willing to sleep or stay in the basement and ended up crashing on the upstairs living room floor for 4 nights. Before posting this review I contacted the host with a complete list of concerns, and my in-laws shared their own experience of dissatisfaction separately. I have been using short term rentals for years, and Matt has all the qualities of an excellent of host. I believe he is eager and committed to remedy the issues above. With attention to detail, clean up and fixing these problems, I think he has the potential to make his rental a great value for your Middletown/Newport experience in the future.

I stayed in this house with a group of girls for my sister's bachelorette party. The house was just a short uber ride to downtown Newport and the yard was great for hanging out and playing some lawn games. We fit 10 of us. It was a bit of a squeeze, but we didn't mind since we are all friends. The best parts of the house are the living area and the backyard. The house owner, Matthew was very nice and super helpful. He gave multiple helpful suggestions of things to do in Newport and was very quick to answer any questions that we might have had about the area or the house.
