Rhode Island is nicknamed the Ocean State for clear and wonderful reasons. The coast is simply spectacular! Each summer brings droves of visitors to enjoy the lovely regional seaside attractions. This place is among the greatest.
Rose Island Lighthouse sits on a lovely small island set in Narragansett Bay.
Almost perfectly between Conanicut Island and Aquidneck Island, the lighthouse is a gorgeous sight when driving over the bridge between the two popular destinations.
Life tends to move pretty fast, with neverending schedules, everyday stresses, and obstacles thrown at us when we least expect it. Sometimes the best way to recharge is to get away, to reconnect with nature and ourselves. That's part of what makes this small-town Airbnb in Rhode Island, nestled on the property of The River Haven Sanctuary, so special.

Most people likely, and rightfully so, associate Airbnbs with cozy cottages, beachfront condos, and sprawling mansions, but this small-town Airbnb - a fully decked-out 1973 Airstream - bucks that trend.
From the moment you walk through the door of this gleaming silver blast from the past, you'll begin to feel life's stresses evaporate. It might look small from the outside, but this Airstream is quite spacious.
Four guests can easily sleep in this one-bedroom Airbnb with five beds. If you like waking up to the sunlight kissing you, claim the bed near the large window.
Can you think of a better way to relax after a day of exploring than curling up in bed, the light glowing from the lamp on the nightstand, with a good book, or your favorite TV show? The Airstream also has wifi.
There's also a kitchen with a fridge in the Airstream.
Explore some of the sanctuary grounds during your stay. Bring your swimming gear or tube during the warmer months, and while away the hours in the Wood River.
Tour the sanctuary, too, where you'll meet a variety of animals, including an adorable donkey named Greta, Daisy the pig, and Pearl the mini horse. The River Haven Sanctuary also hosts activities in the summer and fall that are worth checking out.

One of my favorite things about traveling, after I've chosen my destination, has always been deciding where to stay. In my 20s, I loved finding youth hostels where I'd get to meet travelers from around the world and spend evenings in the common room chatting and laughing until the wee hours. Today, though, I prefer a quieter experience, where I can spend time closer to nature. This farm Airbnb in Rhode Island promises exactly that.

Nestled on the six-acre Spar Point Farm on Block Island, the Saltbox offers a one-of-a-kind setting, and the first thing you'll likely notice before you even walk in the door is...
A unique attribute of this Airbnb on Block Island is the home's layout. The four bedrooms, which comfortably sleep up to seven guests, sit on the first floor.
Wake up in the morning; open the doors to your private patio, and feel the ocean breeze. Can you think of a lovelier way to start your day? (Only three of the bedrooms lead to the patio, so call dibs early.)
A spiral staircase will lead you to the second floor, where you'll find a cozy living area.
Sprawl out on the couch and relax after a long day of exploring Block Island or sitting by the ocean. The Saltbox offers a full list of amenities, nearly three dozen, including wifi and HDTV.
If you're up for exploring, head over to Rodman's Hollow, adjacent to the Saltbox, where you can follow the scenic trail. Slip into the outdoor shower to cool off after you return.
Treat yourself to a tranquil getaway by booking a stay on the official Airbnb page.
