About this property
Hurricane Hill-a farm cottage near Providence
Come stay in a private, light and art and book-filled cottage on our 48-acre, 1750s working farm. Walk the trails, visit our goats and sheep and enjoy our eggs and (if you hit the right season), produce from our garden. Convenient to 95, 295, TF Green Airport and only 12 minutes from Providence, this home is both secluded and close to everything. Centrally located to RI's colleges, universities and hospitals, this is a great option for short or extended stays.
First kid under 10 stays free!* This is a great property for families-cozy enough for time spent together but also with enough space to get away from each other when needed. Kids love our farm animals and adults like the convenience to amenities and activities.
With enough advance notice, we are happy to provide for any anticipated extra needs when we can and, since we live on the farm, we can quickly attend to anything that arises during your stay. This includes early check-in: we'll accommodate when we can , but plese dont call us when you are standing outside 2 hours early (unless it is an emergency-then we'll make you a cup of tea and set you up at our house for a bit).
We have four bedrooms with double accommodations (second floor)and one convertible (first floor): so we can sleep 8 adults and either one adult or two kids on the convertible. Please note that our base rate is for the two first guests-after that, guests (*the first kid under 10 stays free!*) are charged an additional $35 a night. When booking, skip the free kid in your guest count but send us a message that explains who is actually coming so we can prepare.
We have been doing this for a while now and we consider ourselves to be good and thoughtful hosts (our reviews agree). Experience has been a great teacher and our hosting has evolved over the years : we ask that you read our rules and requests (here in the app or posted on the fridge) and if something does not make sense, that you ask us about it.
Book with us ! You'll be glad you did. We are always happy to share the special qualities of Hurricane Hill with our guests.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by drake patten
I'm a former archaeologist/anthropologist and arts and humanities non-profit leader turned farmer and entrepreneur. My husband and co-host Wright is a designer/fabricator and artist (some of the art in the cottage is his). Our farm is always a work-in-progress and we never seem t be done with the myriad of projects that need us. Meanwhile, we treasure its light, its birdsong and the even changing gifts the land offers. We are fiber farmers-keeping a breed of sheep on the critical list. We also run goats and chickens. A llama guards the sheep (and sometimes, us!). Farm dog Rosie imagines she guards the llama. Buddy Big Dog is our main greeter, enjoying his senior status. Finally, Smokey Pants the cat is in charge of everyone!
Why they chose this property
We came to our farm by way of a smaller one-and one we had no intention of leaving. This place needed attention-and we felt we could bring it back into use again. Our 1750's farm is protected from development in perpetuity-and we currently share our land with one woman-owned. The farm is also home to an events /education space (find us by searching for hurricane hill farm in RI) and my husband's design & build studio. The opportunity to be part of and do all these things on our own land is a dream come true.
What makes this property unique
Our location is an adventurer's dream! We are close to everything, yet serene and private. We will be as helpful as you need (we can give you ideas for restaurants and attractions) or as hands off as you want (we'll just let you be!). Our guests seem to treasure the solitude of our little farm and remember, you can take a selfie with a llama-you can't do that everywhere!
