Our stay at Lynne's place was a big slice of heaven for our family. Though the house is very large, the adults spent most of their time around the kitchen table. We loved the house and it's rooting in family history. Great care was taken to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Although we didn't use the canoe or kayak, we loved sitting by the pond. I hope we can get out on the pond on a future two-week visit. We appreciated the quiet and isolation of the place. It reminded us of our sadly-lost family home in Vermont. Groceries, restaurants, beaches and other experiences are close at hand. Some of us visited Mystic Aquarium and Roger Williams Zoo. Ed and I had a glorious romantic day at Watch Hill. Mostly, though, we ate and talked around the kitchen table. Every time we returned down that driveway edged with trees and ferns, we felt lucky all over again. Living in the middle of 43 acres was a great experience. Thank you, Lynne, for an enchanted week! We hope to return!
