Spacious 5 Bedroom home on Westside of Block Island

Great house with clean rooms in a quiet neighborhood. The kids enjoyed the spacous living room and the wrap around deck.

House was uncleanly overall. Dishes had a funky smell to them. Previous resident left food in lobster pot on stove. Master bedroom downstairs smelled like there was a sewer leak recently. Massage chair in living room did not work and had exposed wires. Deck chairs were broken, while owner had new ones in wrapped in plastic in basement. Deck was nice and grill was clean.

We had a wonderful time on the Island. The house was perfect, location. We liked the open living area and kitchen the outside deck was awesome.

Multiple bedrooms and air conditioning, plus a huge deck. Must bring your own sheets, towels and other supplies. Landlords responded and quickly fixed an unexpected plumbing problem.

Great stay. As advertised.

House was clean and had a large open air conditioned living/kitchen/dining room that held all 9 of us comfortably. The beds were comfortable and we appreciated the cotton quilts provided. Location is great, along a dirt road that meanders out to the ocean and large grassy yard- good for kids. Split units helped with inherent dampness on lower level; the owners fixed the dryer as it was clogged up, and a light on the deck. Could use more wastebaskets, more forks, and the bathtub drain didn't hold. We loved Block Island and had a great visit!

We loved staying at the wonderful octagonal house on the west side. Its layout, big yard, great deck and location were perfect for playing relaxing and enjoying the various beaches as well as the spots in town that we like. We hope we can return!!

Our family and friends stay at the house for a week in July. The location was perfect for us as we had our boat at Champlins Marina, which was very close! The house is spacious and was perfect for our 3 teenage children for each of them to have a friend and we had another couple as well. There was tons of space for everyone. Each room has an individualized AC unit, which is amazing. There were a few issues that were typical of older houses and the owners were very prompt with taking care of them. The grounds of the house are huge! Perfect for a family gathering. The wrap around porch is also very large and we did some stargazing out there! The house is a mix of modern updates and old farmhouse feel, but it had everything we needed. The outdoor water pressure is a really strong...fair warning! :)

We stayed here with our grown children and grandchildren. Five bedrooms allowed for personal space for all so this house was ideal. The setting is beautiful and the house was clean. The furnishings are a bit dated, but comfortable. Communication with the hosts was excellent. They were quick to reply and helpful. The location is quiet and easy to get to. We would stay here again.

Overall our trip at this location was just mediocre. While the location, the size, and outdoor space met our needs, there were many issues throughout our trip that made things stressful. There was a terrible strong musty smell on the first level. Two of the bedrooms are on the first level so our first night of sleep was difficult. Thankfully we were able to open the windows and get fresh air into the house. We had an issue with mice in the kitchen of the house. We are not naive to the idea that a mouse might be in the basement, but having one in the kitchen eating our snacks was alarming. The owner gave us a mouse trap and the mouse was caught. The fact that we had to catch a mouse on our vacation was certainly not enjoyable. The most challenging part of the trip was having the owner of the house (staying in a garage apartment) on the premises without us knowing before hand. We found out once we had already arrived. If this information was listed in the Vrbo ad, we would not have rented. This information absolutely should have been divulged ahead of time. We rented a house for the privacy and felt that this was compromised given that the owner came over more than once to tell us to turn the ACs on to help the dampness and also accused us of “touching the WiFi”. We consider ourselves very respectful and clean renters and didn’t like the constant feeling that we were being watched. The house could use a deep clean and some maintenance to make it more enjoyable for renters.

I booked this for my family to stay at for my wedding weekend. Susan was very communicative and my family reported a wonderful stay!

My husband and I rented the house and invited our families. We absolutely loved the spacious house - especially the open kitchen and wrap around decks. It was a quick drive to the beach and plenty of grass area for the kids. The house has plenty of room for everyone and on site laundry which is a huge plus. We cooked the entire trip for 10 people and found everything we needed in the kitchen to accommodate the process. Susan was very friendly and accommodating as well!
