Wonderful Newport home

We had a mixed-age family group for a weekend wedding. Plenty of spaces to hang out en masse or as separate groups. Patio, deck and garden looked lovely - although we had rain every day. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Ideal Location and Beautiful Home

The home is an absolute delight and was perfect for our family that wanted six (no bunk bed) bedrooms and a location close to Newport, the beach and dining options. The backyard seating area with gorgeous grass, flowers and flowering shrubs was a treat, as was the wraparound porch and large kitchen and living area. The owner was very responsive to a situation we had with a shower and shared really interesting background on the home. I highly recommend this property.

We had a great stay. The only thing is that this listing states there are four bathrooms. In actuality there are three in the house and then one outside so to say it is a six bedroom, four bathroom house is a bit misleading.

Our family of 13 stayed here for my son's wedding. It is in a great location and it was walking distance to the venue. The wrap around porch was SO nice to sit on in the morning enjoying your coffee. The interior was up to date and nicely decorated. The hosts were easy to get in touch with if needed.
