Spacious Suite, Private Entry, Sleeps 4, Kitchenette, LR/DR, GasGrill, Huge Yard

Hawthorne House of Newport is located in the city's south end (Fifth Ward). This private three-room suite is located in the city's south end in a quiet residential area historically known as 'Fifth Ward'. This private three-room suite is situated in the "sweet spot" halfway between the beach and downtown. We are celebrating our 29th year in 2024!
We accept only one reservation at a time, so there are never any other guests on the property. Guests can expect full and private access to the suite – indeed, our reviews speak well of our careful attention to guest privacy.
Note that all short-term rental properties in residential zones must be owner-occupied as per decades of city ordinances. That said, our property was specifically designed to give separate privacy to guests. In fact, this suite is the only guest space in the building or on the property – thus, it is private for you and is never shared with other guests or with the owners.
The suite's separate entry is just off the main foyer of the home. Nicely furnished and equipped, the suite includes a deck with gas grill, well-supplied kitchenette, free Wi-Fi, and off-street parking. (We have never charged fees for cleaning, wi-fi, parking, or other such amenities to our guests!) The suite sleeps four (a queen bedroom and a separate living/dining room with queen sleeper sofa – we can also provide a pack 'n play). The bath is accessed from the hallway between the living room and bedroom, convenient to both main areas of the suite.
This neighborhood is within walking distance to four nice parks all of them dog-friendly (Murphy Field, Ballard Park, Morton Park, and King's Park), as well as a family-friendly beach (Gooseberry Beach). We are also within walking distance to downtown heading north and to the Breaker’s Mansion and Cliff Walk heading east. You can easily access Newport's dining, shopping, and the area’s famous attractions!
Children will feel especially welcome and comfortable. They will be delighted to find a large family yard perfect for running and playing – as well as a swing set, sliding board, and outdoor toys. The nearby parks (three with playgrounds) and family-friendly beach are noted above.
This home was built using the concept of universal design. It is accessible for most wheelchairs; please ask us for specifics. Well-behaved doggies allowed; please ask for our 'Pet Policy'. Among the many thoughtful conveniences, your suite also includes free off-street parking in the driveway (space for two guest cars). Oh, did we mention your helpful hosts? Feel free to ask us for shopping, dining, or sightseeing suggestions. As native Newporters, we are well acquainted with our famous hometown and its surrounding areas.
LOCATION: We are within walking distance to central downtown (1.2 miles), a private family beach (0.6 miles), Salve Regina campus (0.5 miles), Breakers Mansion (0.9 miles), and Cliff Walk (1.0 miles). We are 1.3 miles from Fort Adams State Park. This is a great central location.
Wheelchair / Other Mobility Needs: For most guests with mobility needs (walkers, canes, standard-sized manual wheelchairs, etc.) or for those who can easily stand and pivot to transfer, this suite should prove accommodating. May not be suitable for power wheelchair users – please call us for specifics. We are, of course, happy to move (or remove) furnishings or scatter rugs as per your requirements. Floor plan (with measurements) available.
