Our extended family Renton had an excellent return stay at this wonderful property, which has all of the amenities and a great location. You won’t be disappointed!
We had a blast. The house was perfect for our large family and Susan and Howard were super responsive and extremely friendly hosts. A short walk to the shops, a playground, and great food. Less than a five minute drive to a great little beach. Super close to Newport. Overall, very convenient, was a fantastic stay!
This property is fantastic! The actual property is more impressive in person. It was very conveniently located in Jamestown. Short walk to all the restaurants and beach. Great BBQ, huge pool and fully stocked kitchen was a huge plus. For 12 people there was even space for everyone to have quiet time when needed. Howard and Susan do a great job renting out their house and were always available to answer any questions. We will be back!
We had a fabulous family week in Jamestown in this beautiful historic home! Howard and Susan greeted us when we arrived to answer any questions. The home was conveniently located making it easy to walk to the village, the playground and the harbor. Short drive away from Mackerel Cove Beach and the Beavertail Lighthouse. The kitchen was well stocked to cook family dinners and the outdoor BBQ and pool were amazing! There was plenty of space for the family to spread out for quiet time when needed and a wonderful gathering area for all. It was truly a privilege to stay in this beautiful home!! Thank you!
Beautiful home, amazing accommodations, and the best hosts for our week in Jamestown. The house is pristine, in a great location and should everything align next year we will plan on staying again. Thank you guys...it was great
The Zwick’s were perfectly friendly and accommodating hosts, even gave recommendations for needs of our injured guest and transportation inquiry. The house was roomy well appointed. Would stay again!
This property was perfect for a larger family. Everything was exactly as advertised. Susan & Howard are fantastic hosts and so accommodating and responsive! We are already booked for August 2024.
Shoreby Hill provided a tranquil retreat for my family. 10 of us stayed a week and enjoyed staying on the property or walking into town. The property had everything we needed and Susan & Howard were gracious and responsive hosts. I couldn’t recommend the property enough. Plenty of beautiful inside and outside space with an amazing pool and a perfect location. We hope to return.
This property is gorgeous! Quiet and peaceful with a beautiful inground pool and huge front porch with comfortable lounge chairs to read a book. The ocean is a short walk down the hill where you can ride the ferry or rent a kayak. We loved spending time at the property. Too pretty to leave!
Had a wonderful weekend with girlfriends at this amazing property. The house was very comfortable and spacious, quiet and centrally located in a beautiful neighborhood. Quick walk or drive to town. The front porch is a dream. The lovely homeowners were there to greet us and made sure we knew all the ins and outs of their home prior to our stay.
We had a delightful four days at this elegant, comfortable, and welcoming home. The owners are most hospitable and see to every comfort. This house is wonderfully situated and features abundant, lovely indoor and outdoor spaces. It feels like home away from home. Great kitchen! Excellent features for the plugged and unplugged. The town is charming and walkable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and recommend this home wholeheartedly.
Very nice (and large) front porch and pub for socializing, and a nice pool area in the backyard. A bit dated, but clean and nice overall, and a short walk into the village. The owners are responsive and helpful with any questions. We love Jamestown and have close friends in the village. It's a wonderful place to vacation, and you can pop into Newport on the ferry without any trouble at all. Highly recommended.
Our extended family and dog had a relaxing and fun week together at Shoreby Hill. The house is large and very comfortable with a great front porch, heated pool, grill, and numerous places to sit both indoors and outdoors. The property is located in a very nice quiet neighborhood that is within walking distance of the town. The closest beach is readily accessible by bicycle or a short car ride. Newport is just over the bridge about 15 minutes away. We really enjoyed our time at Shoreby Hill and hope to return in the future. Thanks to Howard and Susan, who were great hosts!
This was our 2nd year vacationing at this beautiful family house!
This home is so comfortable for my family of 8 adults and 4 grandchildren. Plenty of space to get away from and spend time with each other. The heated pool is a plus -we all enjoyed it throughout the week. There are 2 beaches very easy to get to. Restaurants in Jamestown and Newport are wonderful! I would love to rent it again for next summer however we have a family wedding to plan! In essence, if you have a large family I highly recommend this vacation home - plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms- second year in a row and my family enjoyed it even more than last year!!
Thank you Howard and Susan for being truly great hosts!!
We had a total of 8 adults and 4 children at this lovely Shoreby Hill Standish home. Throughout the week everyone was very comfortable -plenty of rooms to escape if you needed to -and the gathering rooms were spacious for my entire family to enjoy our time together. My four grandchildren were ecstatic the entire time spending hours in the heated in-ground pool and just hanging out playing games and being silly!!
The adults couldn’t help but feel relaxed in this spacious home. It had plenty of space for all of us to be together in any of the rooms. We also went to two different beautiful beaches only 20 minutes away- easy commute. The owners are wonderful people and so accommodating. They made you feel right at home. I can go on and on but in essence this home was ideal for my family of twelve! I have already booked it for July 2022!
Great experience here. House and neighborhood are lovely, very short walk to small Jamestown harbor, ferry to Newport, and several small restaurants/coffee shops. Howard and Susan were great hosts. Would be particularly good spot for an extended stay. Highly recommend!
5 older women gathered to celebrate a milestone birthday. We chose well! The house is lovely. The location is outstanding. The host was extremely accommodating and welcoming. We would highly recommend.
