Location: Weekapaug, Rhode Island, USA (near Mystic, Newport, New London; 45min to Prov, N Haven)
Accommodations: Beach Home, 5 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 3 Baths (Sleeps 10-11)
Our beach house has a generous, welcoming feeling, with picture windows and a large living room (17'x 32') and kitchen (13'x 20'), very accommodating for families and guests. Puzzles & games for kids of all ages. The large porch,a favorite spot for meals, sunbathing, and relaxing, looks out on a sizable, tree-lined, private yard with hammock, jungle gym, badmitton, croquet & space for ball games. Located in a quiet neighborhood where you will fall sleep to the sound of surf and wake up to morning doves.
A pleasant, half-mile walk down the lane leads to a spectacular, unspoiled, wide beach, a one and a half mile gentle crescent that begs to be walked and picnicked on. Renters receive beach passes. Cleansed by Block Island Sound, its clear waters offer wonderful swimming from June through September. A smaller, nearby beach with soft sand and a large shallow area is ideal for children and surfers. Both beaches have lifeguards in season.
The house is very well-equipped with four showers (one outdoors), two bathtubs, ceiling fans, crib, & high chair. The bedrooms have king-size, queen, and twin beds. Many find that the "summer casual" style of the house -- with beams showing in some bedroom exterior walls -- makes it all the more relaxing.
A rainy day? No problem: curl up on our sofas in front of our large working fireplace to nap, chat & read; enjoy shopping in nearby Watch Hill, movies, plays & excellent dining in Westerly; discover Mystic’s fascinating Seaport and Aquarium 20 minutes away; or explore the historic and culinary riches of Newport.
Weekapaug is a 150-year-old beach community on a stretch of Rhode Island shoreline famous for its series of beautiful beaches and large salt ponds populated by an abundance of shorebirds, fish, shellfish, and other wildlife. A ferry or plane ride to Block Island offers a wonderful day’s outing. Amtrak stops at the nearby Westerly and New London train stations, and US Air flies into nearby Groton, CT.
