The cottage is located in a fantastic location. We enjoyed being near a pond and even took a few casts. The host was super nice and kept in touch frequently, sharing all the important details before the trip. Bringing our car was a must since it's a bit tucked away from the main part of town, but honestly, I really liked that. We had a great stay and would definitely come back!

Great little spot on a great little island

I believe this was our 4th time staying here and we already booked for next year. Perfect spot for 2 people. Small but cozy. Very good location on the island. Close to The Oar. The deck is a nice spot to relax after a day at the beach or hiking trails.

Cute & Clean

We had a great stay at this sweet little cottage. It was VERY clean and had a great view of the Great Salt Pond and a little pond in the backyard. There was a great little porch with comfy chairs. There were also beach chairs provided. The owners provided plenty of information and checked in with us during our short stay. So that was very nice! A few things to note, the internet barely worked. Which is fine for a nice relaxing weekend, but do not depend on it if you need it for whatever reason. The cottage does not come with sheets or towels! We were also told to bring paper towels and toilet paper. There was one roll of each provided. So really depends on the length of your stay if you'll need more than that. So pack accordingly. As for the location, we choose to walk our entire stay. It was definitely a little far. We did not mind too much because the weather was not too hot. If you aren't big on walking be sure to bring a bike or car. The taxi's from town were not too expensive when our feet needed a break. You can easily walk to the Oar or Dead Eye Dicks. There seemed to be a few other shops along that strip that weren't open or not yet open for the season. Definitely would recommend but want other renters to keep the sheets / towel / and distance in mind!

I came to Block Island for the wedding of a URI college friend. This cottage was affordable compared to any hotel. It has everything a single guy or couple could need. Originally planned 2 nights but it ended up being 6 due to the ferries being closed. The pond out back is not in the ad but it was great to bring my chair out there and relax on a private beach that was warm and still in October. I was able to cook a few meals at home and the kitchen was well-equipped. Theres a k-cup coffee maker so bring k-cups! Bringing a vehicle to the island is highly recommended and theres a nice driveway at this rental. Great place to stay for Block Island Race week, weddings or vacation. Can be rented with a larger cottage on the property. The host was great!I don’t know when I’ll be back but I will return.

Wonderful getaway

My wife and I had a great stay with our baby at Karen and Glenn’s adorable cottage. Such a relaxing and magical setting in a quiet and peaceful part of Block Island but still walking distance from New Harbor. We loved being right next to the pond and our baby enjoyed lying on a blanket in front of it watching the little turtles swim around.

A cottage built for two

The location with the large pond was very picturesque and the pond is perfect for fishing in my opinion. The accommodations are large enough for a couple and the on demand hot water is more than adequate. The only down side was the well pump was rather loud and I prefer a gas grill rather than a charcoal grill for quick, eat in meals.

Lovely little place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay at the Foc'sle cottage. It's well equipped, we found everything we needed in the kitchen. The cottage is optimally positioned on the property as well as perfectly located on the island. Not too far from town.

Tiny and easily fixable atributes

Very nice. Nice porch. Minimal water views. Slightly weird adaptation in a small place. We were looking for such a place. No dish washer. Down fall of visit was no internet access or TV reception. Owner attempted hardily to rectify issues but no resolution or offer to compensate. Needed 2 towels and had no soap.

Lovely Cottage

We had an enjoyable stay. The cottage was clean and cozy. Exactly what we needed to get away. It was central to all of the sites we wanted to see. It was our first visit to Block Island. What a beautiful haven away from commercialization. Look forward to returning. Mark & Racheal Houghton
