9 Reviews of Property 263551 in Westerly, Rhode Island

An incredible vacation despite Hurrican Sandy! The owner worked with our schedule and ensured the house was ready. He stayed in contact with us during Hurricane Sandy and ensured we had everything we needed. Great views and close to many ammenities. Our boys especially love the pond and many canoe rides around the islands.

We will defintely be back!

My family and I had a wonderful week last week!!! The house was clean, the view was beautiful and everything we needed was available at our fingertips. My husband and I had 3 teenage boys with us and there was enough room in the house for all of us. The two bathrooms worked out great. The bedrooms were nice size and the beds were comfortable. It was a short drive to Atlantic Ave and the beach. The owner met us there and showed us all the facilities and amentities so we felt right at home in no time. We would definitely go back and stay there again.

Ted was waiting for us to arrive on Sunday night and explained all facil of the house, heater, lights, etc. He called the next day to make sure we settle in OK. The house description is correct as stated on the website and met our expectation. Beds were comfortable and my wife stated the best sleep in years. We didn't cook anything more than popcorn so referred to local diners from the menu available at the house. Highly recommend Gentleman Farmer in next town over.

This house had everything we needed and was close enough to the Groton Sub Base that our son could commute on duty days. The house sleeps 6 comfortably and we had nearby family coming and going during the week for day visits so at times we were up to 10 people which was plenty for the floor plan.
Yard and view was very nice it is set on a back bay on between two nearby beaches. A quiet neighborhood across the street was perfect for walks with our dog. A large kitchen along a modest sized living room allowed us plenty of room to gather however we were blessed with unseasonably warm temperatures so we frequently took to the deck. Beds and linens were very comfortable, we all slept well. The bedroom with the twin bed was a bit cramped but the two others were nicely sized. We had some noise one morning from landscaping at a newly built house next door mentioned by others but that project appears to be wrapping up very soon. The neighbors we met were friendly.
The house has some age on it along with a fair share of quirks but nothing that effected our enjoyment. The bathroom and some of the systems are dated. An eclectic mix of 50's and 60's furniture in amazingly good condition is a bit crowded into the living room. The place has lots of character and would best be avoided by anyone who prefers a sanitized condo or rococo show place. The Amtrak station was easily accessible (20 min) and one of our group flew into the Providence airports which was 40 minutes down the road. There is a Walmart within 5 minutes along with abundance of shopping and dining opportunities.
Another reviewer suggested and we agreed it was more like renting an uncle's house then renting a dedicated VRBO rental, the owner's passions are evident throughout the house. The owner is great and it's been a pleasure to get to know him. We will very likely return if our son remains stationed in Groton. Thank you Ted.

My husband and I, and my son, his wife, and their infant stayed here for a few days while attending a nearby wedding. The location is quite nice; it's very close to the beaches; not far from casinos and other touristy spots. The front of the house has a large deck and a big front lawn bordering the water-- a very peaceful setting. The house itself was very clean and "homey"; it actually felt like visiting a relative. There were some very minor maintenance issues that probably arise from the end of a busy season. Everything was labeled: linens, towels, garbage, etc. Stuff like garbage bags, paper towels, toilet paper, etc., was all supplied, as well as soap and shampoo.
As was mentioned in previous reviews, the owner is very responsive and easy to deal with. I would stay here again if I were in the area.

Another great week. Always fun at Ted's. Just wish the contractors next door wouldn't start work at 6:45 a.m. But it got us up early to have a full day in...lol.

Stayed August 15 to 21, 2010. Ted is incredible. The house was as promised and my family had the best vacation they had in years! He is very concerned that his house guests are happy and comfortable and makes every effort to make that happen. I am hoping we are able to rent again next summer and for longer! Thank you Ted for letting us come back to New England and enjoy it so much more.
