Family and friends find its superb location to be the perfect vacation house rental for shared fun, reunions, and simply being in the City by the Sea.
Simeon Potter House was fully restored in 2004 and is the proud recipient of the 2004 Historic Preservation Award. Since then, we have welcomed both bed and breakfast guests as well as short term rental guests. With careful attention to safety, the house is fully protected with a state of the art fire sprinkling system. Each bedroom has heated towel bars, marble, and individual heat/AC.
When you stay at the Simeon Potter House for a vacation house or holiday house rental, all bedrooms, are equipped with wireless Internet, phone ports and flat screens - all seamlessly blended into this lovingly restored 18th century sea Captain’s home on the bay. New to the discerning traveler, meticulous attention is given to the specific requirements of the guest. In addition to maid services, the skills of a chef for one or all meals can be arranged.
This establishment uses hygienic cleaning methods as well as surface and air purification to sanitize. One feature of our special B&B suite: has a private entrance, yoga room and many amenities. We will help you plan . . .
Parking is never a concern for our whole house rental guests. The driveway can comfortably fit 2 small cars or 1 SUV. For those using street parking, there’s plenty available along Washington Street! Just a quick note: after 6 PM, make sure to have a Newport sticker or a 37 Marsh Street Guest Parking Pass.
We’re excited to welcome you to Newport! When you arrive at the house, we'll greet you with a warm welcome and give you a friendly tour of the home and yard. We’ll make sure to answer any questions you might have along the way!

What makes this property unique
NEWPORT BAY VIEW HOME
Guests have access all areas of the property; head outside...The Danish concept of hygge is about enjoying an atmosphere and ambient sense of coziness by capturing the simple pleasures of life. The privacy of the garden provides this space for closeness and within the pergola is seating for close-knit conversation and delighting in the divine creations of farm to table. The surround is a theme of refreshing green foliage, add a water trickle to encourage mindfulness and now you have hygge; think of it as a bit of your childhood. This will be a magical surprise
