We loved staying here. I totally recommend staying for a weekend or a week! We were sad to leave. We loved cooking in the open, clean, airy and well-equipped kitchen. We loved eating in the dining area surrounded by windows onto trees or out on the deck among birds, trees and wide lawn. We got cozy in the living room to either read in one of the comfortable reading chairs or to watch tv on the couch (on our laptop. There isn't a tv.) I did morning yoga in the wood-floor spare room, looking out to the garden. Upstairs, the bedroom is simple, clean, airy and water-themed--relaxing. Even though the house is tucked into a private, quiet, leafy area, it's also only a 15 minute drive to a great beach, to the ferry to gorgeous Block Island, to fresh fish markets, to the fabulous Manutuck Oyster Bar, and other restaurants and stores.
