Arnie is a 5 star host all the way. First off, he does an incredible job communicating with his guests. His directions were spot on and I had no issues finding the place thanks to his guidance. I had been to Block Island four previous times and stayed in the heart of town each time. This place was a different, yet much more rewarding experience for my family and I. First off, the house had a good deal of outdoor space for my 3 young children to play. They loved the second floor deck which I also used to grill dinner one night. The kitchen had every appliance you could ask for including a dishwasher, toaster oven and a toaster. I saved a lot of money preparing a lot of my own food which would not be possible with a room in main part of town. The living room had a pull out sofa which could sleep 2 people. Each of the bedrooms had a full size bed as well. The apartment was set up in a circular manner where you could complete a lap around the apartment to access all of the rooms. The bathroom was spacious and clean and had 3 different access doors. This was handy for me as I am an early riser and was able to navigate my way without disturbing the rest of my family. I loved the location of this house- it was quiet and surrounded by nature. As an avid rollerblader, I could lace up and get a 5 mile skate in quite easily as well. The location was less than a mile from town, but also within a 10-15 minute drive of Mohegan Bluffs, the North Lighthouse and pretty much everything else on the island. For a family of 5, I couldn't think of a better place to stay.
