I had to think for awhile before I decided to post this glowing review—not because we didn’t have a wonderful time, but because I sort of want to keep Prudence Island the secret that it currently is! But if you found Jenny’s listings I suppose the secret is out...
This incredible and thoughtful home is perched high (maybe highest?) on the eastern side of Prudence Island, about a mile from the ferry. You will wake up with the sunrise streaming across the deck and into your bedroom window, and—if lucky—fall asleep with a gorgeous moonrise over Narragansett Bay. The house is great for groups. It’s thoughtfully compartmentalized so the grownups were able to hang out easily without fear of disturbing the sleeping kids upstairs.
Jenny is a perfect host. Our trip happened to line up with a hurricane and she proactively reached out to make appropriate accommodations for the storm. She’s quick with the responses, and had great tips for us on how to spend our time on the island.
The surprise hit of the week for my kids was getting lost on the golf cart and taking one of the many short hikes to find exciting and new things, a nice view on a rock here, or some emergent mussels at low tide.
Don’t think twice, book this spot—you won’t regret it! Just leave a week open for us next summer.
