The family is already talking about 2026 Beach house vacation! Being from Fairhaven originally makes the availability of Leeward Way extraordinarily special. The neighbors are friendly, and we help remove seaweed from the beach during the week. There are many restaurants, but we usually prefer bringing seafood to cook at the house.

Great beach location!

The layout of the house was great! It is 100 steps to the beach. The landlord was easy to work with and responsive.

Great spot on the beach, nice area and nice hosts

We had a great time. The best thing about the property was that it was unlike most rentals because everything worked as described. I don't think even one item was a disappointment. It had good dishes, working utilities, good furniture, enough bathrooms, it was well-supplied with everything. We left some stuff behind to accomodate for stuff we used. the pictures were good and not deceptive. It could use AC, but being on the beach the need is less than elsewhere. Our hosts were nice and did not bother us, it was a very pleasant place to stay for a week and relax with the family. The beach is actually 100 feet away, but there were not other properties between the beach and the house and the place was very private. Thanks, Don

Great location, home, ocean, beach, people, kayak, fishing, design, wild life, and much more!!!!!!!

From the beginning the communication was great!! Perfect location to the ocean, beach, Boston, Newport RI, the Cape, Plymouth, and so much more!! It is rare that you find a place that is better then what is explained - this was one of them. I have stayed at several home rentals and most we ok and came close to the descriptions. This was the first that by far exceeded our expectations! I almost do not want to give a good review here since it may be harder to rent this in the future and the rental cost may increase - but this is too nice not to share!!! There is every thing you need here. The kayaks were great!!! We saw a seal swimming up the coast. The bike trips in the area was amazing. We for about 16 miles on the area dedicated trails that was rewarding in views that you would never get any other way! GO TO WEST ISLAND!! The beach was great, the nature trails were wonderful, and the culture was refreshing. Met several families and all treated you with warm open hands! Great neighborhood! Saw deer right in the back yard! We took the row boat out twice - this is a little hard to move and does have water come in from the center mast connector - but still was good. Interior is great and love the decor! Beds were great. Room layout was nice! Kitchen was very function! The ocean breeze was perfect and flowed with ease when you wanted it and opened the ample windows and doors. We will be back!!!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing you home!

Pushed up our vacation to June to coincide with family celebrations of anniversary, wedding and birthday. The owners were gracious to accommodate our dates. Thank you! This house is perfect for our family from accommodations, the yard/neighborhood to the beach. Until next year!!

Times of Donald

Time was spent doing what Donald P Leaver would want us to do, just by simply spending time together.We enjoyed a classic clam boil where the kitchen was amazing.We played crochet where the yard was way too fun to set this up the traditional way.This place was located directly across from downtown NB where our beloved Dad dedicated his work life to Com-electric..

Can’t wait to go back next year! The home and location are perfect for our extended family vacation. Everything is clean, the kitchen is well supplied for cooking meals on site with enough seating inside and on the deck. The ocean view of the bay is perfect for pictures and memories. Thank you for a great vacation 2024.

Fantastic Beachfront Location

The location was very convenient to everything! The views are incomparable!! Panoramic views of the bay; just gorgeous. The only downfall was that the cleaning was lacking. Cobwebs everywhere; left over soap bars and containers in the showers as well as mold on the shower curtain. Woken up by the smoke alarm going off at 5 am found a spider inside that caused alarm to go off. Had two more instances of spiders one in my bed at 5:30 am and another dropping from the ceiling on me in the kitchen. Just think the cleaning crew needs a pep talk to get the place ready better. Towels were old and very worn. Also found the request to wash and dry linens and towels before the 10am checkout to be unrealistic.
