Quintessential Cottage in Matunuck

Walk to the Beach from this sweet 3BR, 1 BA cottage!!!!! The Matunuck Beach village has a laid back surf town vibe that is very safe and family friendly! We have a full service grocery store, a farm stand, surf shop, laundry mat, ice cream stand, restaurants, bars, a pizza shop, and a great little "mini Broadway" theatre. Our beach is family friendly and has nice grassy lawns for activities, small play area and pavilion with showers and restrooms. We provide a beach parking pass for our local beach aka "South Kingstown Town Beach." Guests are to bring there own beach towels. For all you "outsiders", you'll love this area! Trustom Pond National Wildlife Refuge is just 2.5 mi. away. Bring your kayaks and paddle around Potters Pond, right at the end of our street! Ninigret National Wildlife Refuge is only a 10 mi. drive away. All kinds of boating and water activities abound, deep sea fishing and tuna fishing charters. Don't forget the high speed ferry to Block Island! So much to see and do, you'll need weeks to enjoy all of what RI has to offer!

Quiet, cozy, and comfortable beach cottage
The house is pristine clean. The kitchen and bathroom are nice and updated. The host Kathy was very responsive. Bedrooms are small but there are 3 bedrooms so plenty of space for a family of 5. Nice location - very quiet neighborhood and walking distance to Matunuck beach, the market, ice cream. Perfect for a beach getaway.

Great vacation spot!
Very clean and nice! Location is close enough to walk to beach if you choose. Far enough way away from the center of town which can be busy.

Great Family Vacation
Took the family to this location at the end of the summer right before school and everything was great. House was perfect for the 5 of us and our dog. Close walk to ice cream which was a daily treat for the family. An easy walk to the beach to look for shells.

Miss Daisy's Cottage is The Place To Be
Cottage is spotless from start to finish. There's everything you could need, just replace it if you use it all. State beach parking pass included, you can sleep up to 8 people in this 3 bdrm, 1 ba, extended cape. Wrap around porch with propane tank grill and outdoor shower with hot water.. They even have a baby gate! Beautiful neighborhood with immaculate landscape, and delicious local eats. Highly recommended 10/10.

Great place and host
Kathy was such a great host. One of the easiest to communicate with I’ve ever booked with. She was kind, informative, flexible and available. The place itself was spotless and very nice. Felt homey and quiet, great qualities for a quick relaxing get away. Location couldn’t have been better. Super short drive or very easy walk to the beach or the town’s amenities. Would recommend this spot and host to anyone.
