The Island Home Inn

We have been there twice now and can't wait to get back. The inn is beautiful, the setting is just right (less than a ten minute walk to either "town" or the beach, but in a quiet spot with a gorgeous view), and the innkeepers are super friendly. Breakfasts are hot, fresh and delicious, and there's wine and hors d'oeuvres in the afternoon. All rooms have AC. The prices are right too, much less expensive than many other B&B's on the island but better value all around. Go for one of the rooms on the top floor of the carriage house, you'll get a private deck with a beautiful view and use of a shared kitchenette. We also booked a fishing charter with our lodging package and had a blast!

My husband and I and out of town friends stayed here for several days, and we really loved it! The home is idyllic (but not fancy) with the front porch with rockers and cute and comfortable Victorian style rooms. They provide a substantial breakfast, which includes fruit, cereals, homemade coffee cake and special dishes everyday ranging from pancakes, scrambled eggs and texas style french toast. Around 5:30 in the afternoon they serve cheese and crackers, wine, lemonade and cookies to die for! You will meet other interesting travelers, if you wish. You are within walking distance of restaurants at both Old Harbor and New Harbor. I would definitely stay here again anytime that we wanted a place on Block Island. The Island. by the way, is wonderful in mid-September when we stayed there; prices are down, there are no crowds, and nature is still abundant.
