Marla's place was a wonderful find. Tucked away against the side of a hill at the end of a dead-end street, the cabin provided a perfect getaway. It is newly renovated and Marla has impeccable taste. From the dishes to the rugs to the art on the walls, Marla's cabin exudes comfort and peace. The kitchen is exceedingly well-stocked with all of the utensils and pots and pans that one could need. The two bedrooms are small but more than adequate and there is plenty of closet space. There is a secluded patio at the back of the house but my favorite place to hang out was the wide front porch. The cool breeze and morning light made it a perfect place to read a book and relax. The cabin is a short walk from the river and a short drive from Narragansett beach. There is lots to do. Newport, with its impressive mansions and countless restaurants, is nearby. But with all of the tourists in the area in the height of the season, it was nice to have a retreat. We were looking for a place that combined privacy with access to history and activities: Marla's cabin had both. We highly recommend it.
