Spent a week here for our anniversary, off-season, mid Oct. The cottage was very clean and quaint. It is definitely intended for spending time outdoors. More than two of us inside for a significant amount of time would have been cramped. But perfect for our needs.
The Matunuck Oyster Bar across the way was certainly a treat. We happened to have a few day of great weather and spent one kayaking on the salt ponds. It was beautiful and quite the work out. There was a surprising amount of restaurants still open for the off-season, but they do close early. We are from NYC so getting used to early-to-rise early-to-bed business hours took some getting used to.
The short drive to the ferry allowed us to spend a day on Block Island which was also a treat, lots of hiking and bike riding, but the restaurants there stopped serving food at 3pm. We managed with a grocery store picnic overlooking the bluffs.
All in all a very relaxing disconnect from the chaos of the city.
