Historic Dowd House

Lovely, eclectic house with all the amenities we needed for our ladies’ weekend getaway! Be warned there is no beach access as it’s on a cliff overlooking the ocean, but gorgeous views, the hot tub area is perfect and fit all 5 of us , there are 2 kitchens (one must be the original and is dated but we used the newer main one), nice separation of space so we all had our own bedrooms, and easy 15 min drive / access to Newport.

This historic home has more character than any house we’ve stayed in yet. Its perfectly set up for multiple or large families. The beds are comfy, the living room is also! The custom shell fireplace is just so much fun and the selection of games and puzzles was great for the rainy times. The kitchen is set up perfectly fine and had everything we needed to make multiple family meals. The fenced yard with hot tub is not only adorable but safe, which is great when you have kids and pets traveling with you. The walk to the beach is short and very easy. We absolutely loved our stay here and while it is not a brand new updated home it more than made up for that with the character in the build and the love that you can see in the decorating and furnishings. We loved it

It was wonderful to walk in after a couple hour drive to a clean knotty pine rustic home with a full view of the ocean out of all but first floor bedroom. The home had awesome views, the beach was a challenge to access currently and we did not go there. The hot tub was enjoyed by a few of our party and we all enjoyed sitting in the wind protected spa area for chats. There is most all you need on site except food and drink! Ton's of games, cushions for the chairs and wood if you wanted to make a wood fire in the fireplace of the large side of the duplex. Recommend this property to any parties up to 8. We had 6 adults and there were no complaints about the beds, showers, bathrooms at all. Fantastic service by Meridith! Thanks for letting us know about the ability to park two vehicles under cover by the alternate access. We have already recommended to friends that vistit the coast for use! Thanks!

Perfect for a thanksgiving gathering

This quirky cozy house was perfect for our thanksgiving celebration. We were a group of 7 friends with a couple dogs. The house is a mashup of a more modern, more open side and a cozy more cabin side. But most importantly for our group was the fact that there are two kitchens. This was fabulous for thanksgiving and would have been great to know in advance. We really loved the quirky vintage vibes of the older part of the house. It was really lovely to sit around the fireplace playing games (they have lots of games!) watching the ocean. We would absolutely stay here again. Although erosion has eaten away the beach access there is a public acess just a short drive away (you can walk it but a short portion is along the highway).
