What a beautiful home and great location! It was the perfect size for our family and to be within walking distance was an added bonus. 10/10 recommend renting this house!
Perfect stay at this beautiful house! The location was absolutely stunning—peaceful, scenic, and close to everything we needed. Everything about the experience was seamless, and we would absolutely love to stay here again. Highly recommend!
Beautiful home with amazing views. Perfect for families and extremely convenient location. Host is extremely responsive to any needs. Highly recommend.
We had a wonderful stay, if I could give 100 stars I would. Excellent location, close to town and shops — yet absolutely quiet when we wanted to retreat and relax. Excellent layout. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
We had a lovely stay for our second year in a row. Melanie is an exceptional host! The house itself is not only new, beautiful, and well-maintained but it couldn't be in a more perfect location - walking distance to all of the best beaches, shops and restaurants. We always wish we can stay longer and look forward to coming back again next year!
Always love our stay at our family home away from home. Lovely, spacious and well-appointed house that’s close to town but away from the noise. See you next year!
We had a wonderful long weekend stay! The house was beautifully appointed for our large group. The host was very responsive during our stay. And the location was the best part! There are ocean views from the front porch, where we spent most of our time! Would absolutely recommend and hope to return!
Staying at this property is always wonderful. The house is clean and comes with a wide variety of amenities (chairs, towels (shower and beach), clamming rakes, corn hole, etc). Location is perfect for walking downtown and eating out without having to drive. 5 stars.
We had a wonderful family event weekend at Melanie's BI home. The home is an amazing beach home and was just perfect for the weekend. Melanie was so easy to work with and super helpful as we navigated some ferry cancellations, etc. Looking forward to being able to rent this BI home in the future!
This is the perfect house for a trip to Block Island. Centrally located in town, walking distance to everything you need. We had plenty of space to stay and enjoy the views of Block Island Sound. We are already discussing coming back next year!
This is the second time I’ve had the opportunity to stay at this property. The first being three years ago. Everything about the stay was wonderful. The communication with owners, the house and its offerings, the cleanliness of it upon arrival, the location, everything. Only negativity about the stay was that we didn’t book 2 weeks instead of 1. Would definitely recommend and hope to have the opportunity to rent it again next year!
This is a beautiful house in the most perfect location - steps from Old Harbor and the beach and with plenty to do, see, eat in the neighborhood. The house is bigger than the pictures do it justice, and there’s an awesome downstairs with bedroom, TV, couch, kitchen and playroom/games. If you want a gorgeous house with amazing ocean views and steps to the best restaurants and bars, then this is the place to stay! We can’t wait to be back again next year!
This is our third year staying at the Reeves house. The house is great, and gets better every year. We really enjoyed the new basement, games, and extra space. Great addition to the house. Amazing convenience and excellent hosts! Cant wait to for our next stay.
Great location as we could walk to town shopping and grocery store. Captain Nicks had a great band and we could walk home safely. Some extended family who stopped by to see the house are considering it for their summer rental
The Reeves property is in an ideal location on the island. Close to the ferry, Crescent beach, and centralized restaurants. The beautifully appointed interior makes for a clean and spacious gathering space. The interior is only second to the views from the front porch. This relaxing inviting retreat is perfect for family to gather and have access to the best of Block Island. Melanie, the host, is attentive and responsive.
For our stay there were 9 girls. Melanie the host was super attentive and always responds quickly. This home was so clean and exactly what you see in the photos! It’s right in town making it easy to walk to the beach, grocery store, or restaurant. The views from the first floor porch and second floor balconies were gorgeous. I will definitely stay again!
