Why Everyone In Rhode Island Should Visit This One Tiny Town

In many ways Rhode Island feels like one big small town in its entirety. Not only can you drive from one end to the other in about an hour, we also have less than 40 cities and towns. While each of our tiny towns have something unique to offer, some stand out a little more than the others. There’s one place in particular that most locals would agree simply needs to be visited at least once.

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. If you know of a local business that could use some extra support during these times, please nominate them here: onlyinyourstate.com/nominate
