Ideal location
The property was very accommodating for our family of 10. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. I refrigerator with water and ice is so helpful. The shed provided everything we could have needed for a great beach day. Great location!! Close to everything!! Very clean. Lisa-Beth was very friendly and quick to respond to any questions.

Awesome beach house!
Lisa's spot was perfect for our group of 6 adults and one child. All the rooms are well sized, and the house has everything you need. All of the common spaces are cozy and allowed for lots of hang out time inside and out. Lisa made sure we had propane for the gas grill and the kitchen had anything we were looking for. The spot is in an ideal location near Scarborough beach and Narragansett generally. We would love to come back next year!

Charming cottage for families with grandchildren
We enjoyed this cottage very much. The kitchen is great for those special vacation family meals. The downstairs bedrooms are very spacious and the upstairs is great for children. We spent a lot of time in the yard and used the grill most nights. The short walk to the beach is a plus, too.. We will definitely return.

Clean, cozy and great location
This place is walking distance to the beach and close to many restaurants. Even though it rained most of our trip, the house made up for it by being spacious enough to entertain our energetic 2 yr old! :)

Great family beach get away
We had an amazing weeklong gathering with our daughters, spouse and 2 grands. Loved the location, so close to the beach. We especially enjoyed the front porch with the ocean breezes and view of the ocean. Our two grands had lots of fun playing in the grassy backyard. Can't wait to go again.

Comfortable and convenient little house at the beach
We enjoyed the place quite a bit. The front porch was a lovely evening spot and the kitchen was well stocked. The walk to the beach is definetely the best part. The outdoor shower could use some updating- its more like showering in a tin shack, but overall, a very nice place to stay.

The house was clean, bright and perfect for our family.
We enjoyed our visit. Everything was more than we expected. Loved that they had all the chairs and umbrella all in a carrier to take to the beach, which was a short walk. Everything was perfect for our family vacation. Would highly recommend this house. The front porch was awesome place to relax in the morning and at night.

Very nice house! Plenty of room!
Overall we had a very good experience. There were 8 of us and plenty of space! The week we had was extremely hot and humid so as a result I would only suggest that there be an air conditioner downstairs as well as the one that is already upstairs. The one upstairs did not do enough for the downstairs. It was in a great area right across from the beach. Loved the porch out front too!!

Great beach vacation!
We rented the house for a family beach vacation, it was wonderful! We were very comfortable in the house, we had 5 adults and one small child. The beach accessibility was the real star of the vacation, you can see the beach from the porch and be on it in about 3 minutes time. Lisa was great, she provided great info about places to see and things to do. The neighbors were all very friendly and sweet. I think my only complaint could be that the upstairs ceilings slope a bit, I hit my head a few times, but I think we can agree that was mostly my fault. Overall it was a great house with comfy beds, accommodating owners and neighbors, and a great proximity to the beach. We hope to stay there again soon. Thanks to Lisa for a great stay.

Clean home, accomodating owners, great location.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the "adorable beach cottage" on Scarborough Beach. The owners were very nice, thorough and accommodating. The house was stocked with amenities for cooking, comfort, and the beach. The house was clean with plenty of beds for everyone. If I had to find a negative I'd say certain areas could use some updating but everything was functional and overall we were very happy there and can see ourselves booking again in the future. Big thank you to the owners for having a great house, being easy to communicate with and running a excellent vacation property.

Very relaxing vacation and property
Diane and I had a wonderful time at Lisa and Brian's property. We went to Scarboro Beach everyday and enjoyed the beautiful weather. Most of the time we went out for dinner; Aunt Carries's, great steamers, George's for two nights on Galihee Island and the Coast Guard restaurant which was fantastic. When we did stay at home, we enjoyed a cocktail on the front porch which was delightful, also nice neighbors. Brian had the grill ready for us to cook in the backyard which we did. Lovely backyard but could probably use some outside lighting unless I missed it. Refreshing outdoor shower. All in all, a very nice relaxing vacation and amenities were very good.

Nice week at the beach
The house was nice and in a great location. It could use a little facelift and some paint but it was comfortable for our family. The location is great, a quick walk to the beach and there's a new trolly route which has a stop just down the block and takes you around to the block island ferry & also to the other end to Narragansett beach. Really nice week overall.

Perfect!
This was our 3rd visit to the Scarborough Beach area with our family and our absolute favorite vacation so far! Each year we have stayed at a different location, trying to find that perfect fit.....I truly believe it was achieved this year while staying at 9 Desano Drive! Being so close to the water the cottage receives wonderfully cool breezes all day that keep it very cool. The upstairs rooms are easily cooled by the portable AC unit that the owners provide. We were all so comfortable at night! The neighborhood was lovely and we felt comfortable allowing our children to ride their bikes/scooter up and down the one-way drive. The walk to the beach was short making it easy to walk back during the day and walk our dogs or grab more snacks, etc, without missing out on beach fun. The cottage is also a short walk to the old missionary ruins to the left of Scarborough Beach which our family had discovered last year. We walked down there at night with the dogs and had so much fun (but beware of ticks! we brought several home with us without knowing!). We only wished the backyard was a bit bigger and maybe had a fire-pit, but that is reaching deep to find any fault at all with this incredible rental. Hoping to rent there again!
