Block Island is a great get away. It seems to be becoming more popular in recent years and car traffic on the island has increased 10 fold. I could not believe the number of bigger than big yuppie SUVs on the island. I actually watched a person leave our hotel and drive 2 blocks to the center of Old Harbor and park on Water St. If you go, ...

My grandparents bought a house on Block Island in the 60's for about 13,000 dollars and sold it just two years ago for over 1 million dollars. I have been going ever since I was a baby. Which means I've been going to Block Island for about 14 years. My mom has been going all her life too, which makes it almost 50 years.
It's an ...

What a disappointment! We have stayed at the Barrington Inn for many years, and LOVED it!But now that it has been sold to new owners, we were SO disappointed!
For $250 a night, the very least a new owner of such a beautiful Inn could have done, was greet and welcome arriving guests.
We arrived to find no one there to check us in, we went to our ...

This is one of my favorite locations in the world. It has a very quaint New England feel to it and a wonderful place to bring your family.

If you are considering a vacation or just a short trip away to relax and rejuvenate, Block Island is the place to go. A very small cozy island off the shores of Rhode Island has been one of the best kept secret for years. Why you ask? Because it is far enough away civilization as the islands put it which is the main land to feel like you’re in ...

I flew my small plane to the Block Island airport (BID) this September and it was a beautiful experience. The Airport is certainly quaint, but also professional, with excellent services, and a good restaurant. The island offers a lot of interesting activities and tours. The horseback tour caught my eye, but I didn't look into it at the time; maybe next trip!

I finally found one of the Sound islands that I like. Block Island is truly the size where you are never far from an ocean view. Travel where you will around the Island and you will always spot the sea. This isn't the case with the larger islands such as Nantucket and MV. The town, while a bit touristy, was very nice and the scenery ...
