About this property

This cozy cottage embodies all that Block Island was, while being close to everything Block Island is today- 100 yards to town, 200 yards to ferry, 300 yards to beach. Situated on the property of one of the island's oldest inns this quaint 3 bedroom bungalow was designed and hand built by one of Block Island's most cherished architects. Nestled on a hill, you'll be away from the hustle and bustle but immediate access to it all. Walk to breakfast, walk to lunch, walk to dinner. Plus, Ocean Views from both 2nd floor bedrooms!

Fabulous Stay!

We stayed for a quiet, end of summer vacation, and it was perfect in every way. It was our first time visiting Block Island and will definitely be returning to this sweet home! The beds were very comfortable. Gorgeous, peaceful location and close enough to walk to town, which everyone loved! Our host, Douglas was very easy to communicate with! Thank you!

The White House!

We arrived early and the extremely nice cleaning people let us use the bathroom and drop off a few things, it was so appreciated especially with an 18 month old! The owner called soon after and let me know the house was all set which was wonderful. It was a perfect sized home with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and an awesome outside shower. The backyard was all fenced in which was perfect! The air conditioning was great as there were some very hot days. I was grateful not to have to bring my own linens and there’s plenty of toiletry given. The bath towels were so nice too! The walk to the ferry and shops is so close by. Also the farm is close too and was so fun to go and pet the animals. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and hope to go back next summer. Thank you!
