'Starboard Watch' is a quaint seaside cottage located 50 yards from the water. A comfortable porch offers a great view of boats entering and leaving Sakonnet Harbor, along with the coast of Newport in the distance. There are two beaches within walking distance (.5 and .8 miles). Other beaches and restaurants are a short drive away.

The Sakonnet point area of Little Compton offers a beautiful setting for seaside relaxation and recreation. The Point is a common destination for roadbikers and those simply out for a Sunday drive but limited access means the area is calm in the busy summer season, and very quiet and serene during the shoulder months.

Enjoy fishing off the rocky shoreline or harbor breakwater, or maybe just crabbing with your kids. Ride your bike; swim at the beach; walk 'the Loop'; or just chill on the porch with a good book. You won't find a more affordable elegant setting than Starboard Watch on Sakonnet Point.

    Wonderful stay! Clean, comfortable, wonderfully provisioned kitchen, fabulous location. Dogs loved the yard and walk to Lloyd's beach, as did we! We loved our one rainy day in front of the fireplace, as well. Hope to come back next year.

    My family and I enjoyed our stay in the cottage. The home was spacious and the six of us felt there was plenty of space. The bedroom and bathrooms on the first floor was perfect for my older mother. She was glad not to have another set of stairs to navigate. The house is old and has a lot of charm and quirks. We spent a lot of time on the porch overlooking the water and enjoyed it throughout the day especially at sunset. The town is very quiet and you need to drive about 15 minutes to restaurants and markets. But that keeps the town quiet and off the beaten path. There’s a secluded beach within walking distance and the owners had beach chairs to use. There’s a beautifully kept lawn but you need to bring your own yard games if you want to utilize the lawn. I’d definitely stay again in the future.

    House is a quintessential beach cottage. Exactly what it should be.

    I want to gate keep this place because its SO special, but because the owners seem beyond kind, I also want the word to be out there that this home is perfection. The location couldn't be more perfect, overlooking the sea on the porch was divine and we loved our morning walks to the beach. The home has everything you need and then some, and although its a bit bare bones (in the best way), you will be more than comfortable. Couldn't recommend a place more!

    Great location. This rental is so well organized and charming. We love our stay. The view and ability to walk or bike to several spots was perfect. Will rent again!

    My wife and I along with 2 adult children had a wonderful trip to Little Compton. We were blessed with incredible weather which made the views even better than expected. The cottage was a perfect place and size for our family to unwind, enjoy the ocean breeze, and do all the things we wanted to do while visiting. It was an easy walk to the beach, as well as down to the harbor. Great for us, we'll definitely go back.

    4 old friends and 1 young dog spent July 4th weekend in this absolutely delightful cottage. The house is even lovelier than the photos let on -- stunning views, cozy in the best sense, with lots of bedrooms that are each so appealing it's hard to choose among them. We cooked in on our first night, ate on the porch and watched the fireworks across the bay. It was mostly cloudy the remainder of our stay, but we walked to Lloyd's beach one day, drove to the town beach on another, and loved both. We dined out, played games, drank wine, went for walks and laughed a lot. Warmest thanks to Buck for providing the ideal setting and making it all so effortless. He's a wonderful host, answered our few questions quickly and kindly, and left a welcome note and bottle of wine for us. We are already dreaming of a return visit!

    A perfect house for a family gathering. Near 2 beaches, huge lawn for kite flying and kids to be outside and great view of harbor and Newport off in the distance.
