BLOCK ISLAND, R.I. —The green rocking chairs will be back on the front porch.

Then there’s the rhubarb sauce that must be a part of breakfast, like the board games and the Victorian furniture in the lobby. And yes, Room No. 13 — the one in the corner that looks out on the harbor — will be ready for the requests that are certain to come.

Unexpectedly, the creaky old Surf Hotel, with its folksy habits and sacred customs, has come back to life.

Read the rest.
