The Incredible Rhode Island Park You’ll Want To Visit Over And Over Again
In a state the size of Rhode Island, you might think that it’s impossible to find a peaceful retreat, but that’s not the case at all. Little Rhody is home to plenty of parks, and this is one you definitely don’t want to miss.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date.

Colt State Park is located in Bristol at Route 114.
You'll find this waterfront park on Poppasquash Neck - one of Rhode Island's most stunning pieces of coastline. The park calls this "the gem of the state parks system," and you'll see why the moment you arrive.
In addition to plenty of natural beauty, you'll find large lawns on which to picnic or fly a kite, an ADA-accessible fishing pier, and a popular open-air chapel.
