It’s a great rustic antique cottage that’s a great deal for Block Island. We rode out a tropical storm this week and this old house took on everything the weather could dish out.Close (but not too close) to the ocean. We love “Pots and Kettles” Beach, which is a quick sheltered walk away.

I love this place so much. If you are looking for a typical, fancy air-conditioned place this is not it. The house feels like it is part of the island.

Relaxing stay

Host is wonderful. Cottage was spacious, comfortable with beautiful sunrises and sunsets at the north lighthouse(short distance from cottage by bike/jog/walk/car). We will be back. Loved our stay!

Another lovely stay at the Littlefield house

We always have a great time here. (This is our third or fourth stay.) The new bed/mattress was a nice upgrade.

Perfect beach vacation

You couldn’t find a better location and rental on BI than this. The house has everything you could possibly need and a great outdoor area with a picnic table, grill and outdoor shower. The location is amazing: just a short walk down a picturesque trail to a stunningly beautiful beach and you have it basically all to yourself.

Peaceful retreat

Such a quiet spot! I don’t think we heard or saw another person during our entire stay. The house was comfortable and well stocked. I especially appreciated the laundry being on the main floor, the outdoor shower, and the miles of clothes line! Everything you need when you’re back and forth to the beach every day!

Our Happy Place

This is a very special place. Old world and rustic, charming, off the beaten path. Weather was strange this week, but when the hurricane veered west we ended with a beautiful weekend. We had a wonderful family time.

Old Block Island Gem

This 1700's cottage is no frills, which for us, worked perfectly. It is private with an ideal location; within 10 minutes to one of the most beautiful rock/sand beaches we've experienced.

Magical. The green stairs should be thought of as a ladder. The house is not the most glamorous but I loved not having to worry about anything. I can't wait to go back it was perfect. Bring sheets and towels. This is Block Island the way it used to be.

Serene

Very old school beauty of a home. Property was peaceful and beautiful, woodsy but not far from town. Deer and pheasant in yard each morning and close to town. Perfect and idyllic, like a step back in time.

Rustic Charm

The house is very rustic, but it is tucked away in a nice little piece of property. Our dogs had plenty of room to run around. The owner was very attentive and we enjoyed the fresh honey and honey mustard very much. Don't go if you are expecting the Hilton, but if you want a unique experience, this is for you.

Nice rustic house

We had a crew in for Block Island Raceweek. One bath is a challenge with a large group, but the kitchen and beds worked great (you need to be fairly athletic to get up stairs/ladder to upstairs bedrooms). Big yard and nice secluded property. Chris was quick to respond and helpful.

Charming antique home in quiet location near nature trail to beach

Charming and interesting historic home, with all the necessities. Appreciate the heads up about steep stairs, low ceilings upstairs. The full size bed upstairs had some complaints. The best part of being here was the homeyness, quiet, and being a nice walk to a gorgeous rocky beach.

We had an OK stay here a few weeks back. The place is very rustic, as noted in the description and other reviews. There is no AC, which is OK and again, this is noted but I bring it up because Block Island can get quite warm. Just make sure you're aware of this. There were plenty of fans, so we made due. The house is best thought of as a summer cottage, so if you view it in that sense, the accommodations begin to make more sense. I'm writing this review primarily to note the issue with bugs. Others have also mentioned this, but we weren't prepared for the sheer volume. Spiders, flies, creepy crawlies...you name it. We live in an old house ourselves and sometimes get unwanted bug visitors so we thought we would be OK with a few bugs. Except it wasn't a few bugs. Please make sure you are OK with bugs if you book here...and I mean REALLY ok! We did not reach out to the host about this because truthfully, I don't think there was anything that could've been done to mitigate the issue during our weeklong stay. I'm sure he would've tried his best and he was very communicative and easy to work with, so absolutely give him 5 stars for that.Overall, our stay was a little disappointing due to the bug issue. Do not expect a house with frills, the host does a good job of noting this in his listing. I would recommend he seal up the house better though because for the price we paid, we were disappointed at having to deal with number and variety of bugs we did.

Summer trip

Pros- Very quiet setting. Private grounds and tree filled. Property near beach. Lots of plates, pots and pans and utensils. It would have been helpful to have a non stick pan, paper towels and white kitchen garbage bags though. Very good propane grill. Cons- extremely buggy inside the house. Front door screen door does not close, so it was either buggy or hot. Window screens had lots of gaps, filled with paper towel bits and duct tape. Toilet leaked a bit at base. The stairs up to 3 of the bedrooms are very steep, without handrail. These rooms are not appropriate at all for older folks or very young children. One person in our party slid down the staircase, no, not alcohol related. Needs repair.

Anemoia…

Wonderful place, a reminder of a time long ago; tranquil solitude far from the crowds. The view of the stars & sky are spectacular here; and the quiet serenity is so relaxing. We absolutely love the embrace of the property’s nostalgic energy…

Wonderful location. Peaceful. Too many bugs.

Taking our dog to walk the the trail to the water was a highlight every morning. The old house is rustic and we expected that - but the bugs were a real drag. And we never got our honey 😕. Full disclosure- we did not contact the owner about the bugs during our stay so this is not to say we complained and nothing was done. However, by the end of the week I wished I had said something because my patience was shot. My son said his 2nd floor bedroom was “a damn ecosystem. “ Functional but no frills.

Idyllic Block Island Hideaway

Lovely location close to Clayhead trails and Mansion Beach with easy access to hiking, biking and all the island's charms. The house itself is exactly as listed - we had 6 adults for a week and all were comfortable. The host is wonderfully hospitable and available as needed. Great property, too.
