As good as it gets
We arrived to the quaint island of Jamestown with very high expectations and they were met in every way! Steve was such a large part of making our visit the best it could be; he was available to help with all of our requests, but also gave us our privacy, being the perfect host. For those that have never visited Jamestown, it is the perfect getaway for those who enjoy great food, beautiful scenery, and small town charm. We honestly did not need to leave this delightful island. Everything is within walking distance from Jamestown Cottage by the Sea: downtown, Mackerel Cove, victuals, great pizza, a breakfast cafe, the harbor, and even a florist, are all within walking distance. The cottage is spacious, clean, and beautiful, falling in line with the enchantment of Jamestown. Would we go back? As soon as possible!

Fantastic property, wonderful stay!
We had the perfect stay. The house was clean, quiet, and fully equipped with all the essentials and more. Everything was so well organized and we were never at a loss for finding anything we needed because everything was labeled so clearly. The pool, jacuzzi and fire pit were a nice addition and the house lived comfortably with multiple sitting and gathering areas. The convenience of location to the park, shops, beach and restaurants was paramount. The host was incredibly responsive to questions and worked to accommodate all our needs both before we arrived and during our stay. We look forward to coming back and would definitely choose to stay here again!

My adult children came in from all over the country for a family get together. The house was fantastic- immaculately clean, well appointed, super comfortable seating and beds. High quality towels and sheets and the host was great! Super responsive. Oh and the back yard with the pool was awesome. 10 out of ten on every aspect of the stay!

A great visit to Jamestown!
My family of five, including 3 young children, had a wonderful stay in this lovely home with the most welcoming host. The house is clean, cozy, and stocked with everything we needed, and the outside area is perfect for summer fun. The location was great, and the kids especially appreciated the ice cream shop just a few doors down! Thanks again!!

Family Vacation
Perfect location! Short walk to get breakfast or a coffee in the morning and in the evenings an even shorter walk to the ice cream shop. My kids loved it. They would walk into town to get pizza. I finally felt relaxed on a family vacation since there was plenty to do in and around Jamestown as well as Newport. The pool float that Steve bought for us was fantastic. I would float and read my book. Would highly recommend.

Perfect Holiday Cottage
This cottage was perfect for our Thanksgiving holiday. Even though we did not do the cooking, we certainly could have. The kitchen was nicely equipped and Steve even offered to make a special set of dishes available for us. Steve was very attentive to every detail. Check in was super easy, everything was clean, and the showers were stocked with toiletries. There is a great outdoor space with pool, hot tub and fire pit table which we did not use due to all the other activities we had planned but I would love to come back some day.

A great fall weekend stay just outside of Newport. Family of 5 slept comfortably. Very clean! It is obvious that Steve takes a lot of pride in his home. Communication with him was great throughout our weekend, making sure we had what we needed. Always love communicating directly with the home owner rather a business!

Family weekend at URI
My family of five stayed at Steve’s cottage home this weekend. Everything was perfect. The house was clean, spacious and in full working order. Steve’s labels and instruction manual was very clear and helpful, yet he still checked in with me to see if there was anything we needed. It was a rainy weekend, but my girls and I still got to enjoy the hot tub! Thanks for being the ultimate host, Steve! This Rhody Ram Fam will be back! 🐏💙

Steve is a fantastic host. He keeps you informed every step of the way. My family and I returned to Jamestown to disperse my husbands remains back to his happy place. Steve was very compassionate and made our stay very comfortable. It was a great respite during a difficult time. It also was close enough to all the amenities and provided an opportunity to share my husbands childhood with his children and granddaughter. Thank you Steve for everything! All the best to you.

Steve was a phenomenal host. He was attentive, flexible, helpful, and earnestly wanted our family to have a relaxing and memorable week. The property itself is well located and the pool and hot tub in the backyard were great, especially with kids.
