We were in town for the Newport Jazz Festival and enjoyed our stay at Laura's place. She was quite responsive and helpful. The outdoor shower was amazing, a very fun touch. If you have time, be sure and try the fried clams at Anthony's, take the Ocean Drive, and do the Cliff Walk.
We also highly recommend The Walrus and The Carpenter Oyster Shack in Jamestown...nice drive and the oysters are so fresh!
