Turtle Junction, owned by my family for the last 20 years, is an idyllic Block Island home that holds great memories with room for many more! This house is in a perfect location, walkable to town and the ferry (less than a mile), yet in a secluded and private neighborhood off of High Street, just North of the school. The house sits on a nature-filled lot with a fantastic deck overlooking a beautiful and accessible pond.

The exterior of the house was recently redone with new siding,roof, windows, skylights and doors, and deck while the inside of our home boasts the rustic charm you’d expect from a Block Island home. The house is 4 levels with the basement level containing a bedroom with a full size bed, a full bath, and laundry area. The main level hosts the kitchen which offers a small table, gas range, dishwasher, and a refrigerator with an ice maker. There is a coffee machine, as well as a Keurig. The main dining area features a large farmhouse table that seats 8 (with 2 extra chairs available) and opens to the family room that has a flat screen TV with a DVD player and ample seating for 8 to 10 people. The third level includes another full bath and two bedrooms; one with a queen size bed and the other with a set of bunk beds. The largest bedroom is on the 4th floor and contains a queen size bed, plus a gorgeous view of the pond off the back of the house. There’s a large deck off of the main level that contains a picnic table that seats 12+, along with a few Adirondack and lounge chairs, plus a gas grill. Also outside is a recently updated outdoor shower as well as a hose to get the sand off after a great day at the beach.

There are beach chairs, toys, coolers, and lawn games available for use. There are also books to borrow, board games, cards and puzzles if you get tired of spending your days in the sun. We have several kayaks for use in the backyard pond and bring your fishing pole! You’re sure to catch some sunnies, bass, perch and of course, turtles.

The benefits to our home's location are endless! The ferry, several restaurants, bike rentals, hotels, bars, shopping, and even a farm with a petting zoo, are less than a mile away. The Block Island school, with a kids playground and an outdoor basketball court, is .25 mile walk as well. The historic Spring House Hotel and The Atlantic Inn are also walking distance and offer manicured lawns with adirondack chairs for a place to chill out, sip a cocktail and watch the boats go by. The best beaches are just past town, so about 1.5 miles to the closest sand. Best of all there is a sidewalk for the entire walk to town offering safe passage for all. We know you will enjoy our property and all the island has to offer as much as we do!

    Our family loved the privacy and rear view overlooking a large pond. The house offers a unique 4 level layout with the kitchen, dining & family rooms that take advantage of the pond. Drive to old harbor was 5 min or short 20 min walk, great location! Jon (host) was extremely responsive!! Strongly recommend!!!

    a definite repeat experience!The home was stocked with everything we needed to enjoy the island outdoor activities and meals. This is a wonderful place for spreading out with lots of nooks and crannies and big tables plus seating for coming together.

    Lovely home, had everything we could possibly need. Such a pleasure. The downstairs floor does get damp during these heat waves and humidity, but that is my only complaint. And we love that it was dog friendly.

    The house was great, large to fit the whole family, has a wonderful deck overlooking the pond. We made good use of the kayaks and all the lawn games in the shade. Jon was helpful and answer all our questions. Would stay here again. Thank you Jon.

    We loved staying at Turtle Junction a little over 2 years ago and could not wait to return. What a great stay! Turtle Junction never disappoints! The property is always super clean, has everything you need in the kitchen to be comfortable preparing meals, and there is plenty of room to relax. Jon is always available to answer any questions and is a great host. We can’t wait for our next trip!

    Our stay was beyond perfect! Warm days and cool nights with a heat wave taking place on the main land made it the perfect week on the island. The property is as advertised and so much more. Minutes from downtown, it provides you with a home away from home feel that is next to none. Having the pond and canoe seconds from the back deck steps provided many evenings of fishing for our kids. The fact that our 2 dogs were allowed at the home made the trip that much better. We’ll definitely utilize this property again for future vacations!
