The Cool House was everything our family of 4 needed and more! Mary knows how to host a family with all the sweet extra touches- the snacks were a huge hit with our kiddos (7 and 9 year old). We traveled to Westerly all the way from Minnesota for a friend's wedding, and Mary's place was our home away from home! Mary supplies her visitors with all the beach amenities you'll ever need- we used these often, as that was the major highlight of our trip- Ocean FUN! We appreciated Mary's thoughtfulness in visiting with us and offering up recommendations for us mid-western, mainlanders to check out! We definitely recommend The Cool House for any out-of-towners wanting to explore Southern RI/CT!
