Definitely a sweet retreat

Cute cozy and everything we needed! It’s in a very peaceful spot right by a pond with lots of birds. We stayed 2 nights for the 1/2 marathon race and it was perfect. We were all sad to leave!

Location is perfect!

A charming oasis right across from a tranquil pond. It’s just a short, pleasant walk to the beach, perfect for catching a stunning sunset. The owners were incredibly accommodating and attentive to any needs we had. We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

Cozy Block Island Cottage

We had a great week in this property. The listing was accurate and we had no issues. Communication was good leading up to our stay. We enjoyed having the pond and turtles out back to relax in the afternoons. You can walk to the farmers market and a few different restaurants. I think the only thing we all thought would have been nice is an outdoor shower and/or a hose outside to wash off sandy feet, chairs and coolers. We would book this property again.

Cosy spot with great fishing for kids

Great spot for a small family. My son loves to fish, so after a day when we had run out of energy, he was ready for round 2 of fishing on the pond.

Wonderful Retreat

Cozy and comfortable property located in an idilic setting. Even though the weather didn't cooperate, the property and location more than compensated! Country road to the Sound, walking along the beach, exploring downtown and excellent food made for a wonderful weekend.

Perfect Getaway

Perfect little get away cottage! Location is very convenient to center of town and beaches. We loved having dinner on the deck enjoying the island breeze. TV, Wi-Fi, Stove, Washer/Dryer all worked fine. Laid back and casual - perfect place to read a book and just relax.

Great Location

Our stay here was absolutely amazing. My family and I loved the location and loved how peaceful it was. The house was so clean and communication with Karen was great. The only thing that we were unaware of, was that there was no AC. I am not sure if it was in the listing, but I may have missed it! We would definitely come back.

Great little spot

Lovely cottage on a peaceful lot. Far enough away from downtown to be quiet but not too far. Hostess was very accommodating and we had everything we needed.

Cute Cottage, Beautiful Location

The cottage/carriage house is adorable. I do wish there were a few more amenities - ironing board, hairdryer, a few more blankets - it was very chilly our first night! Also, I have been using VRBO for over twenty years, and it’s the first place I’ve ever rented that didn’t supply toilet paper.

Conveniently located Block Island cottage

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.

Perfect

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.

Carriage House

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!

Perfect weekend on Block Island

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.

Sweet retreat is an understatement!

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.
