Perfect cottage in Newport!
Lori’s cottage was the perfect spot for a girl’s trip in Newport. It was stocked with every amenity we could ask for and was a convenient location to get into town or the beach. It was super quiet and private- we really enjoyed the outdoor furniture and shower! Easy communication with Lori before and during the stay. Will absolutely be staying here again on our next trip.

Terrific cottage, terrific spot
One could not ask for more than a cozy cottage, a friendly and helpful owner, in a lovely part of the world. We listened to birds sing, watched the sun rise at a nearly by nature preserve, turned the beautiful, nearby church yard of the historic St. Columba chapel, and drove to the nearby, sandy Middletown beaches. It's a beautiful area, if you enjoy nature and nearby good markets and restaurants you cannot go wrong to stay in this comfortable and well stocked cottage set in a beatufil yard with great furnishings.

Perfect place for 3 of us, from the moment we booked until the moment we left, the hostess was gracious. This was a great home base to explore all of what Newport has to offer. It is a well equipped cottage in a private location.

Great cottage in an ideal location
My wife and I have stayed at many HomeAway properties and this cottage was one of the finest. The location was ideal, near great beaches and excellent sights in Newport. The cottage was very comfortable and well stocked. We will tell our friends and family about our wonderful trip to Newport!

Great spot!
We had a lovely stay at Lori's cottage. It is tucked away for the utmost privacy, but close to the beaches and Sweet Berry Farm. Loved sitting on the porch and looking at the garden and using the outdoor shower! Would definitely recommend!

Peaceful getaway
Lori’s cottage was a wonderful place for us to escape to for a few days. We loved the location. 10 minutes from plenty of attractions. The cottage is comfortable and extremely peaceful. Took every shower in the outdoor shower taking in the sun and birds. We highly recommend her cottage if you’re in need of some down time!

Great Stay and Tranquil
I want to say that this property is quite the gem. It was within a nook of town that really made you feel a part of an escape. Yet, you were still close enough in short drive to get to city life if needed. The space was big enough for everyone and we were able to spread out comfortably. I really appreciated the cleanliness and the smores packet. The beds were comfortable as well.

Fantastic house in great location!
The house was perfect for our little family. The location is amazing — quiet but super close to the Middletown/Newport Beaches. It is amazingly well stocked — and has everything anyone would need — from comfortable beds to fast Wi-Fi to every utensil and appliance imaginable. Lori is a great considerate hostess. Five stars.

Great experience
We had a great time staying at Lori’s rental in Middletown. This was our second time renting her property. We stayed with our 3 young children and it was great! They loved the fire pit and s’mores. The outdoor area/pergola was great to sit outside at when we got takeout. The location is wonderful and close to everything. Would absolutely recommend!

Peace and Tranquility
The cottage was exatly as advertised. Peaceful, quiet, right up next to a larger bird sanctuary. We walked down to the beach and enjoyed coffee in the backyard early in the morning. Remarkably a hurricane came through and owner was responsive, helpful, supportive and did all she could to keep us safe and comfortable. We would absolutely stay here again.
