About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Waterfront, Dog-Friendly Cottage on the Cove. In safe, quiet neighborhood.

The cutest cottage on the cutest cove with a brand new dock! Whether you’re into rosé & summer sun, hot chocolates in winter, a week off or a weekend away, Cove Cottage has water front views to help you relax, unwind and enjoy the best of Aquidneck Island.

One hour from Boston, and just 25 minutes to Newport, you have endless possibilities for what to do. We prefer taking advantage of the selection of restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance. Take out the kayaks or paddle board around the cove, explore the Sakonnet River, take a quick trip to Tiverton Four Corners for local shops, or Little Compton and Westport for some breweries and vineyards.

Dog friendly home - and we highly recommend Portsmouth Dog Park, or taking advantage of the dog friendly beaches for long walks with your pup.
*Please note, dogs accepted only.

Just a friendly low key neighborhood with a lot to offer! And a ton of opportunity to relax and unwind.
