House was very nice and well appointed. Perfect space for three couples. It was nice to just head out the door and walk everywhere. We appreciated the parking passes and lovely flower arrangement. Perfect weather too! All in all a lovely week in Newport. Thanks to our hosts!

Perfect location for wedding weekend
I picked this property for my future son in law and groomsmen. A long time Newport visitor, I loved the location across from Pat O’Brien’s and on the wharf. The groomsmen were slow to move out on check out day which was annoying. My VRBO app glitches so I had no idea. Bill called me and let me know, he was very understanding. Overall, I highly recommend the property. Bill was very communicative and friendly.

Location was great
Just remember there is a pub close bye so you will get some late night street noise on the weekend. We stayed the 2nd weekend of the 4th so maybe busier than normal. 8 adults & 3 kids fit perfectly in this well maintained house.

Great house in the middle of it all
Great layout for multiple families. Even though it is right by a popular pub you can hardly tell with the sound machines in all the rooms.
