We had a wonderful 4 day stay at Niovi and Sam's farmhouse on Block Island. The home is rustic but well appointed and comfortable. We have visited BI many times over the last 30 years and we found this wonderful farmhouse to be the quintessential classic home on the island. It feels like your island resident friends have offered their home to you for a stay. Everything was clean and prepared for us upon our arrival. The house has many spaces to gather and relax including a beautiful screened in porch for chilling out in. But the most special aspect of this home is the location and the yard areas. The home is situated at the end of a quiet gravel road and is surrounded by fields and woods on three sides making it very private and calming. We were amazed at how peaceful and quiet the yard was yet the house was only a 6 minute drive to Old Harbor. The backyard has a sunny deck area and a separate shaded gathering area under a 100 yr old tree. We took advantage of both spaces extensively and it was the yard that was most memorable part of the home. Communications were perfect and timely and we had no issues whatsoever during our stay. If you are looking for a peaceful, rustic setting on BI, this home is a truly special spot.
