Christine was a great hostess; she is local, responsive, checked in with us to make sure everything was OK, and responded quickly when we had a plumbing problem (sent a plumber the next morning). The house is on a very quiet street, with a large back yard, surrounded by greenery, yet just steps away from Monahan's Seafood Shack. The owners offer the option of renting their beach passes for Narragansett Beach, or you can pay by the day. It's about a 20-minute leisurely walk to Narragansett beach, but it's just a 3-minute drive, with paid parking at the beach-- or there is "first-come-first served" free parking along the way, if you don't want to carry your beach gear. The house layout was great for us, with 2 bedrooms on each side of the house, so that we could be near our grandchildren without being awakened by them. One set of bedrooms does require going up 7 steps, but if that is a problem, the other two bedrooms are on ground level. The house was well-stocked with kitchenware as well as some toys and games. We would definitely go back again.
