Harlow Hill is exactly as described, but better. The decor is modern and inspiring. The linens and towels are top quality, and everything - the floors, the bathroom, all surfaces - were very clean. The peacefulness of the location is not overstated and the house position allowed us to enjoy both the sunrise and moonrise during our January weekend stay. The kitchenette, while spare, had everything we needed for our short visit, and the smart layout of the space made it feel generous and very comfortable for four people to enjoy without getting claustrophobic. At one point, the four of us sprawled across the living room twin beds reading, chatting, and taking in the front window view of the fields, and we agreed that it was like watching an Andrew Wyeth painting come alive. Our host was incredibly helpful and responsive, and though we did hear children's voices on the other side of the wall a few times during the day, it made us feel like family and it was not intrusive at all. We had brisk, windy weather but felt cozy and warm inside the entire stay. The proximity to Newport and touristy-type adventures made everything easy, and we appreciated the host's recommendations for dining and hiking. All in all, this is a great place and I'd be glad to return anytime I visit this part of Rhode Island - winter or summer!
