About this house rental

Nestled in Block Island, this lovely house for $300 per night is a great option for your next vacation. Please read the full description: The Barn is an idyllic, peaceful escape from the summertime crowds in town. Located on the bluffs above Long Island Sound, it has a spectacular view of passing boats and sunsets from the large windows on the west side, and sweeping views of the Audubon property from the open hayloft doors on the east An outside stairway leads to the upper floor of the Barn, one large space with a king-size bed built up for views to the west and a queen-size bed at the other end. The bathroom with shower is a separate room with a window above the sink overlooking rolling fields and the sunrise. The kitchen area has granite counters and two sinks and is furnished with a small fridge, an electric two-burner cooker, coffee machine, toaster oven, etc. The ground floor of the Barn is used as a studio/sculpture gallery and as storage for vehicles in the winter… not used when guests are in residence. The separate driveway to the Barn passes the owner's large vegetable and flower garden. There is a picnic table and charcoal grill, hammock and Adirondack chairs for relaxing in the sun. The property has a private path to the rocky beach, excellent for surf-casting, beach combing and picnics. Swimming is not recommended because of the difficulty in getting in and out of the water over the stones. Suitable for a couple or a small family, the Barn at Schooner Point is romantic. A car is strongly recommended because it is at the end of a long dirt road, about 3 miles from the ferry, restaurants and swimming beaches. The barn is not winterized so strong winds from the west and east can make it drafty inside. There is a vented kerosene heater which works well to heat the space. It is possible to be comfortable in the barn in November and December if it is not too windy or bitterly cold.

The views are amazing. The sunrise and sunsets are something that you have to experience. They were breath taking. Everything about this spot says you need to stay here! So happy we were finally able to experience this piece of paradise!

Can't think of a better place to be in Block Island, especially in the off season (October). Spectacular ocean view from the king size bed. We were totally comfortable even through a couple of cool and extremely windy days and nights. Hosts were wonderful and we'd love to stay there again. The only hassle (easily resolved) was directions: best GPS coordinate for us was 893 Southwest Road (Cooneymus Road to Dicken's Road to SW Road all the way to the Hackett property and "barn" signs at the end).

The place was the perfect secret hideaway with an amazing view of the ocean and sunset. The trail down to the private beach offered a peaceful walk, and the beach had a lot to explore. A storm came through that extended our stay, but we couldn't have picked a better spot to be. The hosts were awesome, and extremely accommodating. The best hosts that I have had the pleasure of meeting! Thank you.

The barn was a great experience for my wife and I, we had one of the best sunsets I have ever seen one of the nights. Would definitely suggest staying there, very peaceful.

The Barn at the SW point of Block Island is a fantastic location for a remote getaway with sweeping ocean views in a rural setting. It’s a rustic accommodation with no A/C but the breeze is good and the bed is very comfortable. If you are into nature, privacy, quiet and the ocean, this is the place for you. If you want an experience at a hotel in town and near bars, this is not your place. We will be back.
