Waterfront Beach House

Waterfront single family home located on Sakonnet river in Portsmouth, RI. Quaint home on ocean front location allows for enjoyment of waterfront amenities. Close to sandy beach, restaurants and Newport, RI.

The home is a 1940s cottage. The house has updates except for the bathrooms which are dated. There is a step between certain rooms as the house had several additions.

Sakonnet river is a salt water bay that extends to the Atlantic near Newport. Great for boating, kayaking and windsurfing. On a rocky shore that provides water access and views but is not a sandy beach.

Golf: Several golf courses in the area.

Polo: Saturday afternoon polo matches.

Newport: 15-20 minute drive to Newport shops and restaurants.

Amazing sunrises!
This property was beautiful, clean and very well equipped for our stay. We saw some amazing sunrises from the deck. The location couldn't be beat! We would love to stay there again.

Awesome Rustic Beach Cabin
We had a wonderful stay in Portsmouth! The place was the perfect size for a family of four. Our kids had a room that was well removed from the main living area so the adults could stay up late without disturbing them. Also, walking along the water at night was a real perk along with finding lots of sea glass and shells. It was a little odd to come home one day and find a For Sale sign in front of the house, but the owner was prompt at getting back to us with an explanation. Overall it was a great location!

Bayside Stay
Such a nice place to stay with my friends! A great view to have for a morning coffee and a fantastic location. Newport was only a 15 minute ride away, and you get to come home to a quiet and nice home. We actually revised our plans to have more time to relax by the bay. Will book again!

Nice Cottage
Cottage has great view overlooking the sound. Plenty of shells along the beach. This is a cottage, low ceilings and very small bathrooms. The interior is dated and well used but clean. Bed was very comfortable and kitchen well stocked. Location was great, less than 30 minutes to Newport, Breakers and CliffWalk. Would stay again.

Can’t beat the view!
Location is great. Not really much within walking distance (uphill). Lots of restaurant options within a short drive. Newport is not too far away as well. Temp was mid 80s and the two window AC units were just able to keep up. As stated, the bathrooms are small and dated. The whole place would benefit from a good cleaning.

Unbelievably beautiful location
Well equipped, comfortable cabin from 1940's, cute decor. Beautiful location and surroundings. This property is not at all handicapped accessible and may be difficult for older adults to maneuver around inside, outside, and entering from outside. Bathrooms are very small, not handicapped accessible, and would probably not be great for larger people. A deep cleaning would be beneficial. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The stellar location and view was unbeatable.

Few improvements but great place to stay
We had a really good stay. Our first impression of the house was that it looked much bigger on the pictures and the ceiling much higher but it’s a small renovated cottage. The view was amazing, the location was great and the house felt really cozy and comfortable. Price was reasonable compared to other places. The property could use a little bit of love and maintenance ( squicky beds on the second bedroom, second bathroom door doesn’t close and i can’t stand in the bath being 6ft, Portable AC is only in the living room and doesn’t cool off the rooms…)

Great Location
The location of this property is unbeatable! After booking I sent the property manager 3-4 messages with no response at all. We were able to work things out but had there been any issue while we were there I am not confident we could have reached anyone. The home is old as stated but could also use just a little TLC to make it even better. Overall j would stay again but I think a deep clean, some new shower curtains, and carpet cleaning would go a long way

Can’t wait to go back
The perfect get away for a family of 3. Everything you could want/need inside 10 minutes (grocery store, CVS, beverage store and even a few small restaurants). We enjoyed beautiful sunrises every morning and great shade from the tree next to the porch in the afternoon. We even lucked out with a fireworks display across the water that was very nice. We could not recommend more.

My mother and I stayed here for 6 nights and 7 days. The cottage was right on the water with access to a small private beach where you could collect seashells! The cottage was very cozy and located in a quiet safe neighborhood. We had a pleasant stay!

The grandkids love being so close to the water which they were in every day. Some cosmetic items are as follows:1) the upper bedroom and bathroom doors do not close; 2) the rugging needs to be cleaned professionally or replaced; 3) the front living room has a musty smell. Everything worked fine. Thanks for a good stay.
