John is a fantastic house and this is an excellent property and rental experience. We were in town for a long weekend to attend a wedding in the area, as part of a multi-city trip, and my wife and I were looking for some space for us and our two German Shepherds, with access to a beach. The house is exceptionally clean and well thought out for a home rental experience. Everything is bright, sharp, and stocked to quickly acclimate so you can quickly get to enjoy the relaxing setting. The design/placement of the house maximizes the view of the water from every room and the decks/balcony. The access to the beach is incredibly convenient and even at a busy holiday time the beach itself was not crowded at all. The neighborhood is great to walk, jog, or bike around and provides some magnificent views itself of ponds and other inlets. If you have a dog with you John has you covered, and our two were very welcomed and thoroughly enjoyed their stay! The house itself is very convenient to a small seaside village with some good restaurant options and convenience/antiques/curiosity shops. It’s also a quick ride into downtown Newport for everything it has to offer. It was such a nice alternative to a traditional hotel and we would absolutely come back to this listing again!
