Loved the deck overlooking the pond

This is a conveniently located cottage that meets all your basic needs if you plan to be out and about exploring Block Island! It is exactly as advertise and the property owners, Glenn and Karen, are friendly and responsive. It is stocked with kitchen necessities for cooking and comes with a very nice washing machine/dryer combo, but do plan on bringing all consumables (paper towels, TP, soap, etc), as these are not provided. We booked this cottage for the second week of September when the nights were cool, so sleeping was lovely, but I'm not sure how it would fair if the summer nights were hot, as it is not air conditioned. However, many fans were provided and it gets a lovely breeze. There is a nice deck and a grill is provided if you want to grill out. Views are lovely and the area is quiet.

When least expected, nature makes itself known. Keep your eyes peeled.

It’s a great location that is private yet easy to get places and all the taxis know where you are! Easy for bike travel as well.

Had an excellent time, loved the peace and quiet. Away from downtown, cute cottage

The Island is just BEAUTIFUL. The location and carriage House was serene and EXACTLY what we needed for a family getaway. We cannot wait to return!!

We loved being on this part of the island and having a peaceful cozy retreat at the end of the day. The setting was beautiful and the cottage was just right for our family of 4. The healthy lawn was great for our boys to run around on. It’s an easy bike ride to town, though the ride to bring out the trash is about 8 miles round trip.

Great place for two people. Beautiful setting. Great sunsets over the pond. Drinks on the deck. Comfy bed. Excellent hot water. Wi-Fi: poor to none…but that’s not unusual on the Block. Hosts are super responsive. Highly recommend this place!

Well who would expect a Nor'easter in May but then again it's Block Island. Our stay was extended by 2 nights due to no ferry service but if there is a place to be stranded then no better than BI. Having previously rented here before, we looked forward to our return trip. The perfect location and size for our getaway. Karen is awesome to work with and always available for any questions.

My boyfriend and I had such a wonderful time at the carriage house. We felt right at home and loved the private location on the lake. The interior design was beautiful and up to date with everything we needed to enjoy a comfortable stay. Glenn and Karen were both very sweet and prompt in responding to any questions we had. Every morning was like waking up in a dream and it was very hard to leave on our final day! We will definitely be back to stay next time.

We had a lovely stay at the Sweet Retreat. The house was perfectly situated on a small pond with wonderful wildlife. There were many birds/ducks/ducklings and we saw deer walking in the pond in the early morning hours. The house was comfortable and clean, and very peaceful. We can't wait to return.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the Carriage House. It was great place to unwind and recharge. The deck was also a great place to have our morning coffee and to watch the sunset. Glenn stopped by the first day to introduce himself and make sure we had settled in okay. Karen was also very responsive to any questions we had prior to our trip. We would highly recommend this rental.

We had a wonderful time during our stay at the cottage. We loved the location and the view of the pond. We would definitely stay again.

Karen’s cottage is a wonderful secluded location that being Block Island is still close to all you could need! Only complaint was that the WiFi didn’t work which is not a big deal when you’re in such a picturesque place!

Cozy cottage with everything you need. Back deck offering privacy for evening cocktails and a quaint pond with lots of fish & turtles to steal your attention! Great spot for a family recharge.

Great

The cottage served our needs well. Great location. All items functioned properly, owner was especially helpful with extra blankets during the cool nights. The pond in the backyard was a bonus, we loved seeing the turtles, would recommend bringing an inflatable boat or kayak.

Donna was so kind when we met her. My husband was recuperating from surgery and this cottage was truly a sweet retreat!! It was beautiful and calming and had a beautiful pond right outside our door to fish. We will definitely come back in the future.

Great time at BI. Cottage was exactly as described. Location was perfect for easy access to all of BI sites and restaurants. Definitely would stay at the cottage again.
