in Rhode Island
Anyone who has tried to travel to Block Island RI in the summer understands that there is a 2 night minimum for weekends. I am my good friends MOH and am planning the party. She very clearly wants a BI party and nothing else however others in the party do not want the expense of two overnights. The date is  Saturday 7/30/2011. Anyone else planning a BI bach partry that would be interested in trying to split a reservation for the Friday night perhaps?

Any suggestions as to places that take single night reservations?
Thanks

    I think you might want to try your local board...

    The bride should not be insisting on this. She should understand that everyone is operating on a budget.

    You'll find the CT and Rhode Island boards under 'Local Boards,' blue column on the left of this page. Good luck.

    Try the Rhode Island Board - but I lived in RI for 20 years and never went to Block Island.

    You may want to try a house rental instead of a hotel? I doubt you'll find anywhere that doesn't have a 2 night minimum in the middle of the summer. Tell her to get over herself & plan the night in Newport.

    Hi, I suggest that you just try to rent a room in Narragansett instead (although its likely a 2 night minimum-- but it will be cheaper).

    You won't find a house to rent for one night.

    You can camp out on the beach-- hey if that's up your alley there are spots! Or know someone with a boat you can sleep on. Or meet soem cute rich guys with a yacht...

    Sorry.. Can't help much.
    Just go for the day and spend the night in gansett- there are fun bars there too, and block island clears out at night anyway. I think the last ferry out is at 9 or something- check online
