A Perfect Family Beach House!

Enter the first floor of the home from the large deck with a covered gazebo, the first floor of the home boasts a wet bar with serving windows, extensively furnished wrap around leathered granite countertop kitchen, spacious living room with comfy furniture, a queen size pull out sleeper, a queen size bedroom and a bathroom with shower. The second floor has 3 queen bedrooms, a bathroom with shower, and laundry. The home is completely furnished with linens and towels, books, video and board games, guitar, TVs in each bedroom and living room, high speed internet, window AC in each bedroom, large deck with a covered gazebo and a separate patio fire pit, both with substantial seating, as well as beach chairs, beach carts and coolers. The property is mostly surrounded by beautiful primitive stone walls with mature trees, soft grass around the house area, with an extended side yard where you’ll find a relaxing platform swing and a slack line obstacle course for all ages/abilities among the mature trees. There is a vegetable and herb garden for your convenience, with crop dependent on conditions and useage.

Providence is 40 minutes away with the TF Green Airport 30 minutes away. This home is a short 1.9 miles (4 min drive) to East Matunuck Beach, one of the nicest beaches in New England, with a straight on view of Block Island and a long large rock jetty to climb on and watch the boats leaving Galilee (Block Island Ferry), and ideal for fishing. The Matunuck Oyster Bar is a 3 minute drive around the corner with other restaurants across the street and past the beach into Jerusalem, and the public park with basketball and tennis courts, soccer and baseball fields and a playground are just a short stroll away. Oh yeah, there’s also a 6 person hot tub and outdoor gas grilL, 2 fire pits and a large side yard with a slackline obstacle course for the kids...and adults. This house is the PERFECT family beach house getaway!

Football Weekend
We came down to RI with family and friends to see my son perform in the URI marching band. This house was one of the most well appointed houses I have ever rented. It was clean, cozy, & comfortable. The owners have thought of everything from toilet paper to wood for the fire pit!! The house manual was well written with clear instructions especially for the hot tub, which was glorious after a long day. I would highly recommend this house and hope to return in the future.

This was the perfect home to spend time with extended family we don't get to see often. There was plenty of room for the 10 of us, especially with the outdoor space. The location was perfect as well. We hope we can do this again in the future.

Family Vacation
We vacation yearly as a family, including children and grandchildren. This property has everything you can need and more. Having little boys, this yard makes relaxation easy. You are able to sit on the deck with family and watch the children run around and play. There are so many beach items and play things in the garage for them. The house is comfortable and lovely! Thank you!

Hidden Gem
We loved our stay here! The grounds are absolutely perfect for a family. A huge back yard with a fun swing and obstacle course! The deck furniture is under a large gazebo so we were able to enjoy even the rainy days outside. The inside of the house is beautifully updated. It was the perfect size for my husband and I, our two young children and extended family. The location of the house was very conveniently close to multiple beaches and restaurants! The owner Brian was also very quick and easy to communicate with throughout the stay.

Outstanding property and owner!
We rented this house for my daughter’s graduation. What an awesome choice - fully equipped and very clean. The owner was amazing too. Super responsive. We were looking for a full length mirror and I asked if there was one in the house. There wasn’t - but the owner showed up in an hour and brought one to us! Very much appreciated. Would rent this property and from this owner again and again!

Our stay was wonderful. We have a girls weekend Once a year and we are always looking for the perfect home. This house was as close as we have come. We need at least two twin beds in one of the rooms as we are 6 adults and some like to sleep alone otherwise we would for sure be returning to this home every year. It had everything you could need for a perfect vacation right down to condiments and toiletries such as shampoo/conditioner. Makes packing a light job. This house gets an A++!

Birthday Celebration
My family planned a weekend to celebrate my birthday and we couldn’t have been happier with this house. It is beautiful, nicely decorated, has everything you can possibly need and extremely clean. We are a family of 8 including a 3 and 6 year old. We loved going in the jacuzzi and the kids loved the obstacle course. Unfortunately we lost one day to rain so we were not able to enjoy all of the outdoor amenities they have in the garage. I wish we could have stayed an extra day! The house is about 30 minutes from Newport which makes it very convenient. Some of the reviews mentioned the close proximity to Route 1. Yes, the house is on Route 1 and it is close, but we didn’t see that as a problem at all and didn’t really notice the noise from the traffic. We highly recommend this beautiful home. Thank you for renting your home to us.

Lovely home
We stayed for a weeklong end of summer family vacation and really enjoyed our time. The home is lovely and stocked with more than you can even imagine from cookware and utensils to board/yard games and beach accessories. It is right off the highway, but you really don’t even notice as the yard is large and fenced so the passing traffic wasn’t even noticed. The fire pit was a hit with the kids and the frosty mugs in the freezer were a nice touch for the adults upon arrival. Brian was quick to respond to any questions and was very accommodating. The only thing we wished we had was access to a walking or riding path accessible right from the home so we could have used the bikes so graciously provided by the host as we don’t have a bike rack for our car. This did not have a negative impact on our stay at all since there were plenty of other things to do. The location of the home was very convenient as it is just a short drive to multiple beaches, restaurants, Icecream stands, shops and the Block Island ferry. We had a wonderful family vacation at a wonderful home. Thanks, Brian!

A Wonderful House for a Family Get-together
We had a wonderful week with our 2 adult daughters, their spouses & 2 grandchildren (ages 9 & 12) at this VRBO. The house is lovely: very clean, is VERY WELL supplied (including lots of high quality cookware & unbreakable glassware & serving platters,+ paper products & lots of kitchen basics such as spices). It has very updated appliances, bathrooms, flat screen TVs, outdoor grill, hot tub and sooo many outdoor games,(including the slack line set-up in the shade., sports equipment, bikes & beach amenities of all types. We were also quite satisfied with linens & towels & the washer /dryer are quite new & well-located. I especially enjoyed the physical property--it is a beautiful large yard with lovely stone walls & large trees and native plantings. The deck, the fire pit with striking blue Adirondack chairs, the level grass play space, the grilling area are all very attractive separate spaces with with plenty of room for a large group in each. The views from all around this well-tended house are so pleasant--very green, restful & bucolic--a New England style yard & garden with varied terrain and LOTS of space! The owner was very responsive & helpful re: a few questions throughout our stay. No complaints other than slightly difficult access from the adjacent highway (which is out of the owner's control & does NOT have any negative effect on enjoyment of the house or yard). All of our family agreed this house deserves the highest rating.
