History
We are native 'Newporters'. Although both moved away after college. . .there simply is no place like home. We eventually returned home to our families and our roots. We first lived in a three-family home on the other side of the park and began welcoming guests there in 1996. A few years later, we were ready to build the current Hawthorne House . . . designed specifically with guests in mind. In fact, we asked our guests to tell us what they wanted - and we incorporated their suggestions into the design of the guest suite! Your suite is as private as you would wish. Or, if you are looking for sight-seeing or dining suggestions or if you would like to chat, we are happy to oblige! This is a beautiful residential neighborhood - close to parks and a family-friendly beach, downtown dining and shopping, Cliff Walk, and more. You will enjoy your own deck and gas grill, a large, lovely yard, private entrance and off-street parking.
Specialties
Our travels have taken us to many lovely places - but our fondest memories are of the people who made an extra effort to be kind, to be helpful, and who were genuinely warm and welcoming. We hope to provide that same experience for you.
