We had a great week at this property. When we arrived we were amazed by how stunning the area was. The house is even prettier than the photos. It's remote which we loved as we are musicians and enjoyed playing music in the back yard. The beds are all very comfortable. Linda was so attentive to any questions that we had. It is a good distance from town so bring a car or be prepared to use a taxi, which is very easy to do. We loved our week at Linda's house. You will too!

Great house we had a blast

Our family enjoyed this house, a great place to gather with family .

First off, we love Block Island and loved our time on the island. The house's yard was also great for our young children to explore. But we had a few major issues with the house, which shouldn't be a surprise to the host because we communicated them throughout our stay. First, the communication with Linda was often delayed (I had to reach out to her the day before our trip). She was often defensive when we had questions and frustrations particularly with the cleanliness of the house and the location of various things (such as a remote control for the tv). There was no house guide or book or anything to help us with any FAQs that might come up with a house that isn't your own. The kitchen was very grimy, with cabinet doors loose, and the dishwasher falling out. She offered to have the cleaning person come back during our stay - which didn't seem fair to the cleaner and would be disruptive to us. There were about 7 lights that had missing lightbulbs, which she again offered to have the cleaning person drop off. We felt that these were home owner issues and not something for a cleaner to have to manage mid-week. Many fixtures were in disrepair (light fixtures, toilet paper rolls, etc.). The outdoor tables and chairs were filthy and many were broken, making them unsafe for our kids to use. We also had to bring ALL of our linens, which she communicated one day prior to check in. I had to ask repeatedly if there were blankets for the beds or if we had to bring those, as well. With four children, this meant adding a giant suitcase and a lot of extra cleanup and work for us. Lastly, the house is on a VERY rough road with deep ruts. This has been mentioned in previous reviews, and not dealt with. The road was so deep that our car kept bottoming out, so I had to drive around them scratching the car all over the place. The photos in the listing are nice but deceptive - they must be at least 10 years old since the outdoor pergola is overgrown with vines and unusable. Again, love Block Island. Very disappointed by the house that was listed and the communication with the host.

Great house. Peaceful and very comfortable. Block is always an amazing place. The driveway has very deep ruts. The bottom of my car (Honda Civic) kept scraping. This was the drive way not a road. Ended up stuck and needed a tow out of the driveway. But hey all vacations have a story, right?!

The check in process was extremely easy! The house has 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 2 living rooms both with couches in them! The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could ever need. Remote with a beautiful back yard. Wasn't hard to find with the directions given a GPS will bring you right to the location! Perfect for bonfires, grilling , plenty of space with 2 living rooms both with couches! 2 full bathrooms came in handy when getting ready in the morning. I do wish the house had screens to open the windows as it got hot. The host was over accommodating, made check in easy and great, made sure we had what we needed as well as suggesting places for mopeds and bikes along with hiking! We saw deer time and time again which you don't catch on the island as often if it wasn't for this house being tucked away. If your looking to have a group of people for a weekend or longer trip to block island this house is great! It's perfect for staying up late as they have backyard lights and 2 different patio/deck areas. Bonfire pit, grill with propane I mean it was just an amazing birthday weekend! You won't be disappointed in this beautiful island cottage! Thank you for our stay!

We arrived at night, which made water-filled potholes in the driveway a bit scary to navigate. It was a few weeks before the main season and the house felt like it hadn't been lived in for a while. On the other hand, the setting is pastoral, verdant and peaceful. I'd recommend it for people who want a quiet getaway.

Booked this house for my sister's bachelorette weekend and it was the perfect place for all of us. Plenty of room, has a cute outdoor patio, and is secluded from other houses which we loved. Also, Linda was available to chat the entire weekend and was soo friendly! Highly recommend Linda's house for anyone interested!

We had a lovey time. We always do. The house was not clean when we arrived but the owner got someone there the next day to clean. The outdoor dining table had broken chairs. 2 were okay for a house that sleeps 8. Basement was grim for laundry. Otherwise good.!

We had a wonderful week at Linda's house, I wish we could have stayed longer! The house was clean, peaceful, quiet, and comfortable. Highly recommend it for those looking for a quiet and woodsy place to stay on BI.

Nice layout with open kitchen and living room and another family room with TV. First floor bedroom ideal for elderly. Enjoyed the option of yard with deck and sun or terrace and under tree shade. It was a treat to see the birds around the property and listen to their singing.

Linda's property was breathtaking! It's a beautiful house that is in one of the most beautiful parts of the island, surrounded by nature and gorgeous stone walls! Perfect cottage to rent with family or friends - the yard is a great place to hang out and it's only a short cab ride to the restaurants/bars. We'll be back!!!!

Everything worked out great the house was perfect as to what we were looking for and Linda was awesome

This lovely house is pleasantly secluded, offering peace and quiet as well as a pastoral setting. I can only imagine what it must be like in the summer with all the trees! The house is impeccably clean with a stylish and cozy interior, and the master bedroom is quite comfortable. I had a bit of confusion with the TV, and Linda, our hostess, was readily available to help me figure it out. She couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. If you’re looking for a cozy cottage with plenty of room for family, lovely amenities, and a wonderful responsive hostess, look no further. I’ll be returning for a longer stay without fail.

We love coming to the block , having said that the accommodations were extremely poor . The house stunk . I mean really bad the smell it was the worse in the kitchen as soon as you walk in to the home . The upstairs shower didn’t even work . There was a constant dry whistle or venting occurring about 20-35 minutes all the time at night was the worst we thought it was a fog horn but it wasent . We will never stay is such a shorty place again . For the price we paid we expected a clean well kept house that was taken care of . Not this shanty . I feel bad .

The house is lovely, shabby chic in style, albeit a bit remote down a few dirt roads in the middle of the island. There is a nice backyard but no views. New appliances and recent renovations made the house feel clean and fresh. The homeowner was very gracious and easy to communicate with. We were just 4 people so plenty of room, but it does sleep 8. Beaches are all a bike ride away.
