"Hostess with the most-ess" was a phrase coined for Nicole. She arranged to be home when I arrived, showed me the place, put the pool heater on (I had a lovely swim at the end of a hot day), and made sure I knew where everything was anyhow to use it. She loaned me a bike to ride to the beach (fantastic small beach). She stocked the kitchen with everything anyone could want from popcorn to peaches to pasta and sauce. The bathroom had plenty of stock should I need toiletries. There is a TV and lots of Rhode Island tourist magazines. Everything was sparkling and shiny and soft and fluffy. The place is so quiet. This is a true find!
