The Living room/Dining area features a large table for six and a comfortable sitting area with a sleeper sofa. A half bath and the large deck finish off the first floor. Ascend the staircase to the two bedrooms with their unique angles & high ceilings, The Master has a queen bed, dresser, and custom built-in closet. The other bright bedroom has bunk beds. The intimate bath with small soaking tub completes the second floor. There is also a large finished basement with a sleeper sofa and space for indoor games and puzzles (of which there is a substancial selection). The first and second floors are air conditioned with a system that was recently installed. Situated on the top of a hill 3.5 miles from Charlestown Beach, the 5+ acre property has its own walking trails and offers tremendous privacy. Off the front porch there is a new outdoor shower, kids play set, a fire pit with seating, and a hammock. On the back deck there is a sitting area, grill, and a large open air dining space. With just enough lawn area to play games, this house makes a great getaway!

Beautiful cozy place in the woods

I stayed here for a week while attending a canine search and rescue seminar. It was a great home base for the event and I would stay here again.

Peaceful spot in a great location

We just spent a peaceful three weeks at The Hideaway and loved every minute of it. Great private location close to several cute towns and beaches, convenient to Wakefield and Westerly, and not far to Providence. Responsive, gracious owner. We plan to come back to The Hideaway as soon as we can! Even our dog loved it. Thank you.

Comfortable stay

Property was very nice- a little too much house for one person, but very quiet comfortable. The bed was large and super comfy-which is big with me. I have a very nice stay!!

Hidden gem

We had a wonderful stay at the Hideaway. It’s so private but so close to beaches and restaurants. The beach pass that is provided is a big plus. The house itself is really cool and the grounds are beautiful. Hope to be back soon

Another great vacation

This is our second stay at The Hideaway in as many years. We loved it just as much as we did our first trip. The weather wasn’t great, but that makes the fire pit that much better! We were able to use the outdoor shower (and it’s a nice outdoor shower!) and I’m so glad we got to see the turret. This house is so livable and comfortable, the area is great, and Katrina is so easy to contact, helpful, and gives great insight into local sights.

Beautiful hideaway

We love this house! House is off the beaten path and very private, but beaches are still just minutes away. Outdoor shower was amazing. So cute. Everything well thought out including a garden hose right next to the front porch to rinse off any beach sand. We will be back!

Idyllic cottage

What an amazing property! Accurately named the Hideaway, we felt like we were far from civilization nestled in the woods. We were actually minutes away from everywhere we wanted to visit. Perfect central location! The beautiful well maintained house had everything we needed and was comfy and cozy. The grounds were beautiful and our pup loved it too! Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us, we hated leaving!

Little sanctuary

With the bonus of near perfect weather during our stay, we thoroughly enjoyed the “hideaway,” a unique home set in a very lovely space with outdoor seating, yard, woodland-like borders and a short drive from the beaches. Kitchen has what u need and the beds/room can easily accommodate a smallish family. All the windows make it feel bigger than it is. The house did have a noticeable sot smell, maybe someone used the fireplace before us? But it wasn’t unbearable. we’d gladly stay here again.

Stunning

Photos just do do this property justice, it is beautiful, quiet, and very private. Katrina was wonderful and our stay was so much better than we hoped. The driveway is long, steep, and gravel, but well maintained so take care if you have a very low car. Our AWD SUV never slipped a tire even on a heavy rain day so just be aware and don't let this cause you to miss out on this hidden gem. Can't wait to come back.

The Perfect Getaway

We had high hopes for this trip, and The Hideaway exceeded all of our expectations. The property was exactly what we needed. Secluded and quiet with all of the amenities. Our daughter loved playing on the playground, the grill was used daily, and we never showered inside because why would you when there’s an outdoor shower? Between mornings at Blue Shutters, cups of Del’s on the beach, ice cream at Brickley’s, clam cakes and chowder at Iggy’s and Monahan’s, we checked off every box for a perfect trip to southern Rhode Island. Thank you Katrina for being a wonderful host. We hope to visit the Hideaway again in the future.

The Perfect Hideaway!

We had a fabulous time, getting away for several days for my husband’s birthday! The house is stunning & most welcoming. We didn’t want to leave! We, especially, loved the views from the beautiful windows both downstairs in the living room, and upstairs in the master bedroom. It was a special treat to see the snow fall one day when we were there, and see the trees & the woods with a coating of snow. We look forward to our next trip back to a most relaxing, comfortable and beautiful hideaway. Thank you, Katrina & Tom! Most Sincerely, D. & M.

Great location and beautiful home

This home is in a great location to visit RI any time of the year. While we stayed in the fall, we were still able to enjoy the local restaurants and the shoreline. The uniqueness of the home added to the enjoyment of our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet and the trails in the woods on the property. The owner was very communicative and helpful with any questions we had. Highly recommend this home for an amazing stay in South County RI any time of the year.

Quiet, lovely property but near everything you want

We really enjoyed our time at this property. The house and grounds are exactly like the pictures. The property feels very private, but is literally a 2 minute drive to restaurants and stores. Katrina was easily accessible before and during the visit, so everything ran smoothly. I also want to note (because this is a pet peeve for me) that there were plenty of supplies, like paper products and hand soap, and the kitchen was nicely stocked. We loved our stay and would be happy to go back!
