Delightful spot

We had a perfect two weeks at this beautiful house. The size allowed our multigenerational family to have plenty of bedrooms, each couple had their own bathroom. The large kitchen was very well equipped, perfect for cooking large meals. The front deck was great for watching the sunset or having your morning coffee. The back deck had a great table for sharing meals. The swingset and hammock were a bonus. Everyone had a great time and looks forward to coming back next summer.

The house was spacious and well appointed. We had 6 adults and 4 kids under 8. They loved the yard. Front yard perfect for kite flying. Everyone appreciated the space - we could all be together or get away for some quiet time. The kitchen table fit all of us - great family meals.

Lovely home, beautiful place

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Block Island for the first time, and we (5 couples) stayed at Island Adventure. The house was lovely, beautiful views from every angle. We cooked every night in the well stocked kitchen, and enjoyed both the front porch and back for reading, happy hours and relaxing. We had a fabulous view of the lunar eclipse, sitting on the front porch, tucked under blankets in the great Adirondack chairs. The house was cozy and comfortable, and was close to town and some of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. Unfortunately, the weather forced us to cut short our stay by two days. The owner was great with keeping us informed about the ferry schedule. We made it off safe and sound and Tom called to make sure all went well. We had no trouble with the internet, or any thing else for that matter. I would suggest the owners put a microwave in the otherwise well appointed kitchen, and perhaps a second TV in the den. Loved the house, loved the island.

Dear Liz, Thank you for your kind review. It is nice to know that you were able to enjoy your stay in the way that we hoped you would. It was certainly unfortunate that you and your party had to leave early due to an approaching hurricane! I am sure this was disappointing. I know the feeling as Tom and I were married out here in our front lawn and it was the day after a hurricane and none of our guests were able to come from out of town as the boats had stopped running. Mother Nature always plays a big part here on Block Island. As far as your two suggestions, we appreciate your comments. We are adding a small microwave for our renter’s convenience and are considering a second smaller television for future stays. Thank you again for your review and for your suggestions. You are always welcome back! Warmly, Tom and Kathleen

Our Island Adventure memories

Our entire experience was memorable! Not knowing exactly what to expect, upon arrival it was perfect. The home has a wonderful front yard with a beautiful view of rolling hills, stone walls and Fresh Pond. The front yard is perfect for a morning cup of coffee or a glass of wine at sunset. The children had a huge yard where they could play and we could either join in or watch from the Adirondack chairs. The kitchen is very large and fit many of us as we all pitched in to prepare meals. The large table is so convenient right next to the kitchen area. Since we cooked quite a bit, I have to say it was so well equipped we just had to look for what we needed and it was found. The back yard has a large table for late afternoon meals out of the sun, outdoor shower, grill and even a swing set! Sleeping and bathroom needs worked out fine for our large group. There is even a piano and our budding 15 year musician kept us entertained! As you can see, the home was perfect for our family and we thank Mr Mitchell for being so accommodating and helpful!

Feels like home, not an overused rental!!

We loved this house! It was perfect for our group of 11 (6 adults, 5 kids ranging 3 - 12 years). It was warm and inviting while also allowing for privacy when needed - lots of spots to take a nap!. It was very comfortable and truly felt like a home. Super clean and well appointed. The location was perfect for us as we wanted a quiet place with easy access to town. We did have a car but we biked to town and the various beaches often. My children often took off on their bikes to explore together - something that wouldn’t normally happen at home! My 9 year old quickly found the path to the pond and was excited to show us all. It was a great spot to take a quick dip to cool off without packing up for the beach. Yes, the WiFi is slow but it didn’t bother us. We were on an island - we expected it. We had hotspots to use if we needed them but it generally just helped to keep us off the devices. The house had everything we needed (wine fridge!!). The kitchen is nicer than mine at home! We couldn’t seem to find the microwave but we didn’t much need it so I didn’t even bother to call Tom and ask about it. All other communication with Tom was very easy. He was very quick to respond to questions both before and after our trip. My daughter left a book at the house and he txted quickly to let us know so we could go back and get it. We can’t say enough about how beautiful Block Island is. If you’re looking to spend time here, then you probably already know. Our favorite spots were Mansion Beach for swimming (we took one car here to carry chairs and coolers but half of our party biked it and got there in the same amount of time); Dory’s Cove for sunsets (my personal favorite) and watching the seals by the North Lighthouse. Had a nice yoga class at Elevation Studio (by the 1661 Farm). Great owner, great location. Running trails for those so inclined. Respect and caution towards those on bikes, especially the little ones. And a great house to avoid the frenetic pace of town and just chill out and do nothing, which we happily took advantage of. We played a lot of corn hole on the front lawn. We didn’t eat out much as we had a great house to cook in and little ones in our group. But we did have lunch at Poor People’s Pub. It was great for us as they run a peanut free kitchen and we have a severe allergy in our group. Overall, just a wonderful time here at this lovely home on this beautiful island. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return!

Sunset views and Adirondack chairs

Room for everyone in our group! Sprawling, family house with a rolling front lawn, a much used hammock, and a perfect, private, kid friendly backyard. My crew had an excellent time playing cards in the evening at the farmhouse table, and having coffee alfresco while my granddaughter monkeyed around on the swing set. This property is close to conservation trails and minutes from the town beach. Recommended! Thanks Tom!

Family Friendly Retreat

We are frequent VRBO renters and this rental was a wonderful experience. The location was excellent- central and private. The view to the West over Fresh Pond to the sunset was a highlight of each day. The kitchen was very well appointed and worked well for more than one cook at a time. The layout of the house was particularly great for our multi generational family group as was the huge front lawn and the 2 generous decks. We would be happy to book again in the future.

Memories and More

This beautiful Block Island home was absolutely perfect for our group, which consisted of 3 generations of people. The bedroom layout afforded small families and other adults ample space and privacy. Both inside and out, our family was able to enjoy themselves while taking in beautiful views from every window and vantage point outside. The house had many thoughtful touches and was beautifully decorated. Family sing-alongs around the piano were so much fun as were dinners around the immense farm table. There was no shortage of Adirondack chairs from which to take in beautiful sunsets every evening. We've stayed in many houses on Block Island and this by far was the best!

Excellent stay

We stayed at the house for a week in July. We ate most of our meals at the house and found cooking to be very easy. The view is phenomenal and being able to walk to the lake was a huge plus. We were able to bike from our house to everywhere on the island. Be warned the hill by the airport is a killer! All in all an excellent stay and we would certainly come back again.

Family Vacation 2015

Our family had a fantastic time this year at this house on Block Island. The house itself is absolutely lovely, spacious and in great condition, with virtually every amenity we could have hoped for. Plenty of room in kitchen, dining and living area for everyone to cook together or just hang out, large enough for our family gatherings (8 adults, 2 young adults, 2 children under 5). The house is set up so the bedrooms and bathrooms have privacy. The house sits on a hill and the Island breezes keep it comfortable inside and out. All of us enjoyed sitting on the large expansive decks both front and back with plenty of adirondack chairs for sitting and family gatherings. If you just wanted to spend the day at the house, the huge front yard overlooks Fresh Pond which is swimmable and ideal for the little ones as well as the adults. The shaded back yard has plenty of room for outdoor cooking and activities. The location was just right not to far from the beaches and town. If you bring a vehicle which I would recommend you will need to book your car reservation for the ferry in advance. Tom and Kathleen were available whenever we had questions, and very accommodating. We highly would recommend this property to everyone and plan on returning to this wonderful family friendly home again.

Quiet? Yes!

I don’t believe that the owner has misrepresented this property, but I do feel that one reviewer has conveyed an inaccurate impression. First of all, I disagree that this house should be a recommended location for tourists without cars. On the contrary, some form of transportation to and from this spot is essential if you wish to enjoy the beaches, sights, and restaurants that dot the island. On a lark one day, a few of us decided to walk into town. When we finally arrived at the ferry landing, we all agreed that there was no way we were walking back home. Enough was enough! (And, I can assure you, we are all avid walkers.) Biking wouldn’t have been a much better option. The island is very hilly and the narrow roads are crowded with cars most of the day. There is no way someone burdened with beach gear would want to walk or bike to the beach from there. Calling a cab would seem to me a must for evenings out. Which brings me to disagreement number two: Fresh Pond offers a very pretty view and it may be “delightfully swimable” but it is not readily accessible. No trespassing signs and heavy vegetation surround it. The only access we could find was a good distance from the house down a heavily wooded path. With deer tick warning signs posted everywhere on Block Island, one is hesitant to lug his gear down too many heavily wooded paths! The reviewer does acknowledge that internet access can be sketchy on an island and I understand that. This is not an issue that affects my life. It did however cause serious problems for those of our party who hold jobs that require them to be accessible to their work places at all times. In truth, the internet wasn’t sketchy, it was nonexistent. I agree that the house is laid out well for a large extended family --- though a few more bedroom doors would have been welcome. And, the kitchen is large and well appointed --- though not all of the amenities functioned. (A working ice maker or multiple bags of ice would have been nice --- constantly filling little ice trays and maneuvering them into the bottom of a freezer unit is very tricky.) On the plus side, the quiet location far from the bustle of town makes for a restful getaway.

Dear Bruce N. Thank you for your review. I agree that there are many times in which you would want a vehicle, especially when transporting gear. Otherwise, as the previous reviewer wrote below, both town and the beaches are very walkable, or bikable, as they are only just miles away (1.9 and 2.2 miles, respectively). Many people that come to Block Island are here to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and want to unwind with a walk. I am sorry this was not the case for you. Also, I am sorry you did not find the “hidden to tourists” path for Fresh Pond directly across the street. I wish I would have known. And yes, it seems that we all need to be concerned about Lyme Disease as it is now being reported in every state in the country, and especially in high numbers in all of New England. You are correct about the internet on Block Island as it can be rather spotty as we warn people. As you may know we are building windmills off the coast that eventually will eliminate this issue. Unfortunately, the thunderstorm that happened while you were visiting, knocked out internet service for many homes and we are sorry that Verizon Wireless was not able to fix it sooner than they did. Thank goodness for hot spots for those emergencies if you must work while on vacation. Thank you for your note on the ice maker. We appreciate it and have connected an ice maker for added convenience, in addition to the ice that we always leave in the freezer. Unfortunately, a refrigerator ice-maker can’t always keep up with summer time fun! In addition, I know that you rented at the same time as Chris H, who commented in the review above, and also had concerns. We apologize that we were not the perfect stay for your holiday. Warmly, Tom and Kathleen Mitchell, Owners of Island Adventure
