Wuskenau Beach Parking Pass Included. Air conditioners in each bedroom.

Halfway between beaches and arts downtown of Westerly with restaurants, three theatres, live music, outdoor park, library, etc....

Quiet and relaxing vacation spot still close to all amenities, halfway between town, listen to the wind in the trees all day, rain or shine from the large three-season porch.

This house is not luxurious. It is simple, tidy, comfortable, well-loved, and relaxing.

In Summer: Halfway between Main Street downtown or Westerly and 5 beaches, including Wuskenau (pass and parking pass provided), State beach of Misquamicut, natural Napatree point, and Taylor Swift's favorite expansive East Beach.

In Fall: Near Clyde's Cider Mill, Olde Mystic Village, Westerly theatres and restaurants.

Perfect for families of older kids, not the right place for toddlers under 5 (old house, not childproof). Walking area down sidewalks on East Ave (both sides 1.5 miles, total 3 miles with Moore Woods walking area 1/4 mile straight walk away from house).

Air conditioning in bedroom window units only.

House includes all amenities as if it were your vacation home- spices, soap, towels and linens, basic cooking needs, etc... Great place for a quiet getaway.

Not a house for graduation parties or lots of drinking as it is a quiet neighborhood with quiet neighbors. No animals (even small ones) due to other renter's allergies.

Convenient to Boston, NY, Watch Hill, Mystic, Newport , Westerly, Casinos, New London, Block Island, etc...

Located in Westerly RI, this charming cape is 3.5 miles from Misquamicut Beach and the beaches of Watch Hill Rhode Island. Near golf, kayak rentals, and 1 mile from the center of Westerly's quaint New England Main Street America town featuring famous Wilcox Park, Granite Street Theatre, Shakespeare in the Park, RiverFire and more.

This home is in the perfect spot for touring New England- 45 minutes to Newport and Providence and Casinos. 15 minutes to Stonington CT fishing village. 20 Minutes to Mystic CT. Travel 30 minutes North up route 1A to tour the fishing villages of Galilee, Point Judith, and more. 1 1/2 hours to the heart of Boston. 3 hours to New York City. 20 minutes away catch the ferry in New London CT to famous Block Island or travel farther to Martha's Vineyard- all close enough for a day trip.

Atmosphere: This cottage is not luxurious- it is well-loved. It is a rustic cape cottage near everything that families have used for years as a flophouse going to and returning from the beach. It has all of the original wood cabinetry and charm of a New England cottage in a coastal town. Second bathroom in basement is rustic and intended for washing sand off from the beach.
This is the kind of place my family likes to say 'it's ok to track the sand from the beach into the kitchen' where we sit around all day on the porch playing cards with the kids, listening to music, grilling and telling stories. Bedroom rooms have air conditioning units. We hope you enjoy and love it as much as we have.

    A lovely cape cod house centrally located and close to beaches, restaurants, and shopping. The house offers privacy and is in an extremely quiet location. The host was easy to connect with and very gracious. I would definitely stay there again.

    House is roomy - more space than we even needed - which is very unusual for vacation rentals. Great location, near Westerly town and also easy drive to beaches. The porch on the back was wonderful and there's a big back yard. Comfortable beds, nice bedding. It felt easy to stay there, with all the things we needed. AC in bedrooms was great. No AC on main floor, which I worried about but it was fine if we closed windows/curtains during the day and opened them at night for air. One random thing - could not find a way to get outside water/hose for hosing off beach stuff, etc. No big deal though. Hope to return!

    We had a great time at this beach house. Plenty of space for my husband and two kids. Luckily, we had wonderful weather so mostly stayed at the beach, however the home comes with games, books and even ping pong. We loved having first floor laundry. This house is in a great location easy to get to the beach and rt1 for some shops and supplies.

    Once again, we loved our time in this cozy cottage. The space is clean and comfortable. There’s plenty of space and extras such as plenty of towels and kitchen spices that you may have forgotten. The location is very convenient. This week was the holiday and there were triple the number of people out than we normally see on our now 5th vacation to Westerly. Still, we had no issue with beach parking on the 4th of July and a lovely time was had by all. Plenty to do: bowling, shopping in Mystic/Westerly/Watch Hill, beaching, a day trip to Salem & to Providence, drive in at Misquamicut beach. We love and adore this house and are so thankful Anne was able to accommodate us. Btw, if you are concerned about lack of central air, don’t be. Fans kept us cool downstairs and the window a/c was absolutely icey cold at night. Thank you, Anne!!

    Nice 50/60’s home. Has 2 baths, the bath downstairs is very rustic. It was about 4-5 miles from the beach.
