LTR Downtown Mansion Walk to Everything, Parking, Indoor Outdoor Living

Seriously disappointed. The listing promised a 10 bedroom house, but several rooms were either empty of furniture or marketed as a single bedroom which was actually shared, forcing our group to squeeze into spaces that didn't match what we paid for. The backyard and grill, advertised for socializing, were filthy and unusable. We were never told the owner would be on-site the entire time utilizing the main kitchen and additional bedrooms in the house, which completely ruined our expectation of privacy. On top of that, multiple sinks, toilets, and showers didn't work. When I called the owner to discuss these issues upon arrival, he was shockingly hostile-cursing, making written and verbal threats, and even threatening to call the police. Worst of all, he wrote me a text threatening retailiation if I wrote a bad review or asked for a refund, which not only is an insult to me but undermines VRBO and the rental process. He later would go on to make claims that we were engaging in illegal activities, such as underage drinking (the ages of the guests in the house were all 25-40 years old- most of us married or engaged), claimed we trashed the house (we did no such thing- the house was filthy upon our arrival and we left it in much cleanlier condition then we received it in). Overall it was an unwelcoming and unacceptable experience. We paid a significant amount for this property and didn't get what was promised.

This house was the PERFECT location for our stay in Newport. We walked to town everyday and could even walk to the beach and cliff walk. The house was exactly as described, with beds for 17 people and lots of bathrooms and hangout space. The only difficulties were that the house was definitely old and had not been unkept so well. One of the toilets didn’t flush right and one of the sinks didn’t work and a bunch of the outlets were confusing to use (they were on smart outlets and we could not get them on). The house was also not equipped with any shampoo conditioner or body wash. But overall the house was perfect for our group and we loved our stay!

Extended Family gathering...great separation of generations by floor ... Wonderful common gathering area for family time in the evenings. Great location for exploring Newport.

This is an amazing property, impeccably maintained

Great home for family gatherings etc. with lots of privacy avaialbe the only downside id the kitchen is small so plan accordingly, once you figure out a way to navigate the kitchen space its perfect!!

We had a group of 14 stay at the house and it was perfect for a large group. Great location and beautiful property.

We rented the Inn for our friends sons wedding at Castle Inn. We are all HS friends from the sixties. It was perfection. We spent all our time on the timeless porch when we weren’t scheduled. It was heaven on earth. ♥️♥️♥️

Quiet neighborhood but an easy walk to restaurants, boats and shopping on the wharfs. Lovely architecture and history in every room. Yoy can spend hours just enjoying all of the period pieces the owners have furnished this home with.

Charming gardens for a group family photo!

Historical, beautifully appointed, and perfectly located to downtown and a harbor side wedding. Nick was helpful with suggestions for caterers for a welcome party for wedding guests that we hosted at the property. It fit our 70 people easily with all the nooks and crannies In and around the house. It made our weekend better than I could have imagined.
