Obsessed with this property!

When we first showed up to the house, we were blown away by the long tree lined driveway, the huge back yard, the beautiful view of the pond, the quaint back pergola area, and by how cute the house was in general. We had 10 girls for a bachelorette trip and we could not have been happier with our stay. The open kitchen and living room area were great for cooking breakfast and lounging. We used the kayaks multiple times and enjoyed the fire pit one night. We had a lovely dinner out on the back porch. There was plenty of space for all of us. And the house was very well stocked. The property manager Anne was very responsive and helpful. She gathered firewood for us before we arrived and set out fresh flowers. We had a beeping fire alarm and we got help changing it within 10 minutes! We went into Newport area a few times and ubers would take 20 minutes to arrive but we all agreed we would rather stay in such a wonderful house and be a little farther from our activities. I would absolutely stay here again! I loved this house so much!!

Great Location and Communication

We were a family of 14 ages 7-74 The outdoor space was wonderful and provided so many fun filled activities. The inside space was great but bathrooms could use a little updating. The property manager was very responsive with all of our needs. Note to others - the guest cottage first floor bedroom is an open area with no privacy. It worked well for our group that had a family of 5 staying there. We had a wonderful time.

Family fun in Tiverton

The property was great, being so close to the water was so nice. 10 degrees cooler down by the water. The kayaks and all the games were so nice to have. The house fit us well and so glad there was air conditioning. Anne was wonderful to work with. Our family had a great time.

Magical vacation home and location in tiverton Rhode Island!

We had a fantastic time. There was 10 adults and two little babies with us. Michael had everything that we could possibly need or want. We used the kayaks everyday, we cooked in the kitchen every night because there was so many pots and pans ,coffee machines utensils you name it. We ran around on the front yard and flew our kites because there was enough room and no wires to interfere with the string. The dock is a wonderful place to have morning coffee and so is the deck outside with the pergola. The beds are all exceptionally comfortable and the house was spotless. Michael was very easy to communicate with as was his property manager Anne who brought us flowers and supplies the first day. Michael offered to get us a beach pass but in the end we just ended up driving over to second Beach instead of using the Little Compton beaches. Maybe next time we will explore South shore Beach more. Heiger's ice cream is a must and about two blocks down walking distance. So many times we vacation in Newport and there is not enough parking. We had four cars and had plenty of space. Included are two very nice hammocks to attach to the trees outside and a fire pit with enough seating and one night's firewood included. Thank you!!

Perfect for large groups - would highly recommend

My entire family enjoyed our week at this property, which is no easy task given we have an age range of 7 months to 56 years old and everything in between (there were 12 of us). There really was something for everyone here. The house is very well equipped for cooking, activities/recreation, and relaxing. The surrounding area has lots of different options as well. The property manager, Ann, is extremely responsive and attentive. The only thing worth noting that wasn't fully clear in the description is that the two queen beds in the guest house are not in discrete rooms - one is located in a loft space (adjacent to a bedroom with 2 twin beds) and the other is located in the main living space on the first floor. This was not a problem for us as my daughter's family stayed in that house, but it's worth noting. My kids have already asked if we can vacation at this house again next year!

We booked this property for a multi-generational family trip, it was the perfect setting and location for all ages. We loved having easy access to all the local attractions.

Tiverton Compound on the water .. great Memories for us!

We were celebrating our daughter’s graduation from college with family and friends for a long memorial day weekend. The property’s location and view from the house was incredible. We took advantage of full access to the grounds, including water activities and sporting games. The yard was expansive and also made for some memorable graduation photographs on the waterfront. Everything was provided throughout our entire experience and it was very convenient overall living. Our guests also had a very positive experience and were impressed by the house and our hosts’ attention to detail. The house And it’s adjacent structure very comfortably fit our party of 10 people . Good communication from the owners and property managers as well. Our family will never forget this past weekend in Tiverton . We can’t wait to return to celebrate another milestone!

Great waterfront location

10 of us gathered for Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time. The water views and sunsets are spectacular. The house fit us all comfortably (beds, big dinning room table, etc). (Note that the guest house downstairs and upstairs loft are open spaces so you need to adding rooms accordingly.) Anne, Terrence, and Michael were great on communication. Would definitely come back.

A Real Gem

Our group of nine had plenty of space to cook and hang out and relax in this house and guest house. We loved the layout and the proximity to the water and took cold plunges each morning! There were only a few minor things we could mention that might help the next guests; the toaster didn't work, there was no tea kettle (we recommend an electric kettle), and the doors to the backyard were sticking and hard to open. The people who stayed in the guest house were unfamiliar with mini split for heat so some directions on how to operate would be good as well as some extra towel racks. We really loved it and would definitely come back! Thank you!!!

magical weekend gathering

We celebrated my daugher's wedding with a small group of family and friends in this absolutely lovely spot. It was everything we dreamed of and more - a comfortable, extremely well-appointed and very attractive space that allowed us to celebrate in-doors and out-doors over a long weekend with about 25 people (some of whom stayed elsewhere). The garden and sloping lawn down to the water was just magical - even in the rain. There was a fire pit for late night smores, and plenty of lawn games for everyone's enjoyment. Anne, the property manager, was incredibly helpful and made us feel very welcome. We feel very lucky to have had a chance to celebrate in such a special place. Thank you!!

Awesome family reunion!

We had an awesome experience at this beautiful property for our family reunion - 12 people aged 3 - 62. The listing described the location, amenities and property very accurately. We used the kayaks and paddle boarded daily. My husband was able to fish in our motorboat which he launched at a nearby public ramp. We played cornhole and croquet and used the fire pit almost daily. Lots of big family dinners and games at the big tables. Highly recommend the historic four corners area for shopping and dining. All in all - we had a terrific time and loved our time in Tiverton. The host/owner and property manager were wonderful to work with. Thank you!

Amazing family vacation

We had a wonderful week at Michael’s place. Anne and her husband were more than accommodating to our large group of 13. We had ages 1.5 to 82 and everyone had a great time. We cooked and baked together in the large kitchen. We went to the seafood market down the street daily and the ice cream shop at the end of the driveway. We explored the beaches of Little Compton, Tiverton and Newport. We even spent some time in the darling town of Bristol. We had one rainy day where everyone played games. We kayaked every day. We even bought a few games and left them for others to enjoy. Thank you for the incredible family vacation.

Owner & Manager are not professional

We were delighted when we first arrived especially when we saw the amazing view. However once we entered the guest house we noticed the beds, floors and bathrooms were not clean. The bathroom had hair under the bath mat and on the walls. The floors had hair, dust, and dirt easily visible. The beds had bugs. We were told the sheets were cleaned but we still saw some hairs and bits of dirt in the bed along with the bugs. We reached out to the property manager about the unclean guesthouse. Anne said she would reach out to their cleaning person. We couldn't figure out how the Queen sleep sofa/futon pulled out that was in the listing. The house manager, Anne's response was that she was not sure about the sofa, but the house sleeps 14. The sofa was just a sofa. It didn't pull out to sleep on it. Then we had yet another hiccup, the hot water faucet in the hall bathroom of the main house did not turn on. It just kept spinning. When I reached out, still kindly even after all of of these inconveniences while on vacation, she unintentionally responded to us instead of the home owner by saying, "This one will never be happy. Next time you want to discount a June 3 day rental let me know so I can go on vacation." Yes, when we booked months prior we did receive a slight discounted rate that the home owner agreed to because we were staying mid-days. We were astonished by the text from the house manager. I reached directly out to the home owner to make him aware of the circumstances. He c

This house was perfect for our large group of girls. We loved having the backyard to hang out in and the picnic table is great for eating outside. The pictures do not do the property justice! Even though we didn’t have the best weather, some of the girls were still able to take kayaks out! The inside has plenty of space for everyone to spread out. The kitchen had everything we could have ever needed for our meals! They had thought of everything. I would absolutely make a point to return to this house.

Our Daughter got married at a venue close by. The Tiverton property hosted friends and family for the long weekend. Some of the bridal party were able to get ready for the wedding while enjoying the ambiance and atmosphere afforded us at such an incredible location. Everything about the house and property only added to what was a great wedding and wonderful weekend of family and friends.
