About this house rental
Sweeping water views with the sound of crashing waves and gentle ocean breezes are the highlights of this upscale family home located in the private beachside community of Crescent Beach Cottages.
With three separate bedrooms (queen, queen, twin) and another set of twin beds on the updated lower level, this home comfortably sleeps 8.
The home is clean and bright throughout. All bed quilts, comforters and pillow shams are provided freshly laundered for each guest. Bath mats also provided freshly laundered for each guest.
The first floor of the house features a queen bedroom and a twin bedroom which share a full bath.
The second floor features the kitchen and large great room with two seating areas and a half bathroom. Enjoy preparing meals in the bright kitchen with views of the water and conservation land. The kitchen is fully stocked with plates, glasses, flatware, serving utensils, and pots and pans (including a large lobster pot). Appliances include a traditional coffee maker, Keurig coffee maker, toaster oven, blender, hand mixer and Magic Bullet smoothie maker. Granite countertops, electric stove, dishwasher and new refrigerator round out the gourmet kitchen. The great room offers a TV with DIRECTV. The large upper deck off the great room offers sweeping ocean views to the east where you can enjoy amazing sunrises and views to the west to watch the deep orange sunsets. Outside, there is a table for dining, two relaxing rocking chairs and a Weber Grill for outdoor cooking.
The third floor features the master suite with a queen bed, walk in closet, a peaceful sitting area and a separate upgraded bathroom with tub and shower.
Back on the updated lower level, there are two twin beds and a sitting area. The washer and dryer are located on the lower level with a walk out entrance available.
Just off the first floor porch, there is a private outdoor shower with hot and cold running water. Also provided for the tenants use are a variety of beach items. We have eight beach chairs, at least four boogie boards, one beach umbrella and assorted sand toys. No need to drag those necessary items with you - they take up too much space in your car!
The beach is literally steps away from the back porch down a private path. This section of Crescent Beach is south of Mansion Beach with amazing surf and north of Scotch Beach and the popular Town Beach.
The house is located directly across from the Block Island Club which offers weekly memberships that provide access to tennis courts, kayaks, paddle boards and sailboats. A trip to Andy's Way is a short bike ride north and the downtown area with restaurant and shops is located a short ride south. The house offers easy access to many attractions in town.
Finally, when you decide to take a break, the family home is stocked with an assortment of puzzles and family games like Scrabble, Clue, Monopoly and more!
From a safety standpoint, carbon monoxide detectors and a brand new monitored smoke alarm system has been installed throughout the house.
We are interested in renting to families and couples that will take care of this home as if it were their own.
Absolutely no tenant dogs are allowed in the community and renters are expected to respectful of the neighbors in the upscale community. There is parking for two cars on the driveway.
Block Island is our most favorite destination! We would be excited to offer advice for newcomers to the island. We hope you decide to join us this season.
PLEASE NOTE: During June, July and August we have a 7 night minimum, with SATURDAY as our turn over day.

Kim and her husband are the best hosts! This is our Fourth year staying here and it was almost perfect once again…. The house, the location, the beach….normally we come in August and the basement bedrooms can be too hot and stuffy but this year in July they were a cool and quiet respite from the party going on next door until midnight on the Fourth….we knew to expect downtown Block to be crazy during the holiday but did not expect the neighbors to be screaming until midnight. That was THE ONLY downside to a beautiful and peaceful retreat. Thank you for the memories once again Kim!! Miss The Block already💙

We rented this lovely property to attend a family wedding at Sullivan House. It was conveniently located to all wedding activities and town. The host was very communicative and helped calm our nerves as we dealt with travel and Hurricane Lee. It turned out to be a lovely weekend.

The location of the property with easy walking access to the beach is perfect. Since it’s private access we had a ton of room on the beach all to ourselves. The house is spacious giving plenty of room for 8 of us. We really enjoyed our week and hope to stay here again.

Absolute Perfection!
The property was in an ideal location. The path to the beach was out of a romance movie. The view was breathtaking and the home was clean and inviting. There was plenty of utensils and spices so we could stay home and cook while we took in the view. The property owner was easily reachable in the event we had questions. We are so grateful for our stay here and we look forward to another visit in the future.

The Brush beach house is perfect for a large group!
I rented the Brush home in BI for my sister’s bachelorette party and we had a blast! The only thing more amazing than the location of this house is Kim, our host. Our return ferry got cancelled multiple days due to gale force winds. We were so fortunate no one was booked right behind us and Kim was kind enough to let us stay while we figured out our options. She really cared about our situation and her knowledge of the island was very helpful. Rain or shine, this fully stocked house has everything you need to make your stay unforgettable. I am so grateful for Kim’s hospitality and will definitely return! Thank you for everything Kim!!!

Beautiful property and super-helpful host
Absolutely gorgeous location up on Corn Neck Road. Unbeatable views greater than 180-degree water view because of height/location. Home was extremely clean, well decorated, had everything we needed. Couldn’t ask for more. Kim (host) was spectacular- easy to connect with and filled with tons of helpful information. We stayed in April, so Island was pretty quite but even in high season this home would be an extremely peaceful and relaxing place to stay. Would gladly come back.

Perfect house for 8 guests
The location is great, far enough away to be quiet but 30 minute walk into town via the beach. I stayed here for a 3 night weekend trip with 7 friends. The house is clean with everything you need for a vacation stay. Kim was responsive and helpful. Highly recommended.

Short walk to best beach
The best part of our stay was that the house was a very short walk to the best beach on the island, enabling us to take many trips back and forth required by the children.

Amazing location!!
We had an incredible stay at this property. The location is unbeatable with just a short walk to the most beautiful beach. The house is perfect with just the right amount of separation between the bedrooms and the main living area on the upper level was perfect for enjoying the view of the ocean and town, and the deck. The house came stocked with beach towels, beach accessories and plenty of cookware in the kitchen. Kim was always communicative throughout the entire process and I rate her very highly as a host. I highly recommend this property.

Superb Property
This beach house is everything one could want in a vacation home. Its location, just a short walk down a private path, is perfect to make quick trips back to the house as needed and still maximize beach time. Our family found everything we needed in this well appointed house including beach chairs and boogie boards. Even the bed mattresses allowed us a solid nights sleep to prepare for the next day of fun beach activities. We loved this house with one of the best locations on the island.

Thank You Kim
Kim’s Cozy Crescent Cottage was perfect for our COVID Respite. Kim, the owner, has provided every amenity needed and she even welcomed our daughter at ferry when we couldn’t come over right away after storm due to power outage and COVID concerns....In the crazy time of social distancing, this was THE PERFECT SPOT... quiet sandy beach, BI club watersport amenities across the street and everything we needed to enjoy dining in the cottage. Looking forward to next year and beyond...Truly Grateful for Kim and her Crescent Beach Cottage
