Westport wins again !
This was our 2nd time staying on this beautiful property. Can’t beat the location and the peaceful nature of the neighborhood helps all of us relax at the end of a day on the beach. Scenic and quiet.
Our hosts are extremely communicative and made us feel at home.

Nice house and location!
We spent a lot of time relaxing on the deck with the calming water view. In the heat of the day, the shadier screened in porch was a nice option. The house is well air conditioned, which was great.
Horseneck beach is a short drive - We also took walks at Allens Pond Wildlife sanctuary at the end of Horseneck Road. Farmland stretches all along the road to the beach. There are plenty of small produce stands throughout the area, cute shops, cafes, and restaurants in Westport and Little Compton. We love the area and had an excellent stay in Chris and Laure’s place!

Westport Gem!
We had the best week! The house is cozy and comfortable. The deck and porch provide the BEST views of the Westport River. The location of the house is so convenient and an easy drive to anything you need. Communication with the hosts was great and easy. We hope to book this house again next time we come back to the area! Highly recommend

Stairs are very steep.
Great setting and views. Nice quiet neighborhood. Easy checkin. Clean. Kitchen was well stocked.
Our only issue was the steps were very steep and we didn’t notice that in the listing.

This property is great for multi age families. Our family shared the main floor but we had top and lower level sleeping areas that worked out nice. The yard is wonderful and spacious especially when little ones need to play off energy. Its a very quiet neighborhood and centrally located.

The house is just as advertised and the view is amazing. Kayaking and paddleboarding out to the island in the river was a highlight for the teens. Worth renting a SUP or kayak from Osprey for the week. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful views and Nature all around!
This is a comfortable quiet house that makes you feel at home the minute you walk in. Living-dining areas open and airy and perfect for hanging out. Drawback for my self and 3 friends was that only one twin bedroom is located on main floor. Master is up one flight and 3 beds are in a finished basement area which is damp and chilly. A working humidifier runs constantly and must be emptied 3 times per day. Both bathrooms are only accessible via stairs including one basement stair which is quite steep. We were 4 ladies in our 70’s so this feature was not the best. If you are in this age group and are not comfortable with stairs then this house is not for you. Otherwise it was a lovely stay and a welcome retreat from the pace of NYC.

This spacious house is bright, open and with wonderful views up and down the Westport River. We appreciated the extra sitting areas as well as the sunny deck and covered screen porch.

Amazing views from a cozy home
Can’t say enough about the tantalizing views of Westport River from the comforts of this cozy home! There was ample space to spread out or gather. The house was well-kept and amply supplied. Chris welcomed us warmly and responded promptly to our questions. Commune with nature in the surrounding beaches and trails. Enjoyed our week in Westport!
