About this property

Red Gate Farm: Lovingly Maintained Block Island Farmhouse

This property rents Saturday to Saturday. Maximum Occupancy is 15 people

AS OF SEPTEMBER 1, 2021, RED GATE FARM NO LONGER ACCEPTS PETS

Glimpse the by-gone days of Block Island in this spacious and comfortable Block Island farmhouse. With beautiful views of New Harbor and The Great Salt Pond, the house is a stone’s throw from three marinas, Ball O’Brien Park, and several popular island restaurants.

The house is a gracious example of its era, replete with modern amenities. The kitchen will suit serious cooks and shares an open floor plan with the dining room and a small sitting area, encouraging food preparation and socializing. In addition to the kitchen and dining areas, the first floor has a living room, a parlor and a half bath.

A central staircase leads to the airy second and third floor bedrooms and three full bathrooms. A lower level bedroom has an en- suite bathroom and it’s own entrance.

The front porch is a gem! At once cozy and generous, it invites guests to watch the island wake in the morning and to relax and celebrate the day at sunset.

The owner lives on an adjacent property and can provide assistance in the unlikely event that a rental issue arises. This property rents from Saturday to Saturday and has a 7 day minimum stay.

NO SMOKING OR PETS ARE ALLOWED.

This was our third late-summer stay at Red Gate Farm. The house comfortably accommodates 8 adults and has ample common space. Large kitchen and dining room. The covered porch faces the road,but a large meadow creates some privacy.You might see pheasants and grazing cows.

Jiff made the entire process seamless. She was very responsive and available for any questions that we had. Red Gate farm was in a fantastic location and there were plenty of bedrooms for our large family of 12. The open concept kitchen with wrap around porch were breathtaking and we'll definitely be heading back.

Red Gate Farm is in a great location, walking distance to Champlain’s, the Oar, Payne’s dock, Dead Eye Dick’s and Payne’s Killer Donuts. The farmer’s market is steps away on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The house is comfortable, but quaint. Definitely not modern. The wraparound porch is what makes the house great for a large group. Ours was 11 including an almost 2 year old boy who had lots of room to play. The deck overlooks fields where cows graze in the winter, with views of Payne’s marina. Jiff, the host, is super responsive. We would definitely return.

The house is spacious, with comfortable bedrooms and enough bathrooms for our group of 8. Afternoon light is spectacular.The large kitchen has a new gas range and plenty of counter space for cooks. We loved the front porch—far enough from the road that it didn’t feel too public.

Family vacation (all adults)

The house is spacious and welcoming, with a large kitchen for guests who don't want to go out for food every meal. Our party of 8 loved the interior layout and the front porch, where we could take in the perfect late-summer weather. Red Gate Farm is the first house we've rented that is within walking distance of the food and drink establishments and other businesses in New Harbor. Eight thumbs up from us!

Reuniting with friends for over 30 years

The property is a great location away from all the hussle and bustle of downtown. Yet you can walk to the State beach or the Oar Restaurant. Downtown is just a short drive away. We have 7 couples that have been going to the Block and stayed in various homes on the Island. Red Gate fits us the best. The only complaint I heard from members in our group was the mattresses need to be updated. The master bedroom mattress was perfect and that was my wife and I room. The property manager was very responsive to all our need. I highly recommend Red Gate Farm for a family or friends get together. Rick P June 2024

Great spot

Just returned from an 8 day stay at the red gate farm. The house was clean, spacious and well appointed with a perfect location. As the pictures portray, the furniture is older (as is the case with many island homes). We did have issues with creaky floors, doors and doorknobs when trying not to wake our 4 month old and some members of our party had back issues from the beds. None of that would deter me from staying there again, however. The front porch is absolutely amazing and was difficult to leave. I do think the outdoor shower needs to be updated. The water pressure is very poor making it difficult to rinse and there is no privacy. An outdoor shower is a priority for our party so likely will not return for that reason.

Block Island Gem

The house and the location were both excellent. The house was just as described - lots of room, bedrooms all very nice, kitchen very functional. Best was the front porch - we sat out there for hours. While in a relatively busy area, the house is set way back from the street so there's no traffic noise. The view of the harbor from the front porch was amazing as were the sunsets. Great spot in every respect.
