We stayed over on Saturday night and, with only 24 hours to explore Providence, the suggestions that we got from Chip for where-to-go were greatly appreciated and saved us from wasting time wandering around. Since we were the only guests, we had a wonderful Sunday breakfast conversation with Chip about the history of the house, etc. We're also glad that we took his advice at breakfast to check out the Rhode Island Flower Show at the Providence Convention Center.

Chip's personal knowledge of Providence locales and events proved made us appreciate what we would have missed if we stayed elsewhere.

P.S. You can't tell from the street-level photos, but Chip has plenty of off-street parking on his property.
