What a quaint and beautiful house!
Spent the weekend here with my boyfriend and two of our close friends for a birthday retreat, and it couldn’t have been cuter. The two bedrooms were large and the living space had so much character we didn’t want to leave the comfort and warm vibes this cozy little get away provided.
When we did leave though, we were pleasantly surprised by the convenience. A 10 minute drive one way, and we were at a beach hiking what we later found out was one of Rhode Island’s most scenic spots, called Napa tree; 5 minutes the other way and we were in the hub of downtown Westerly drinking libations with the locals! Shouts out to Surf Cantina and The Cafe!!
On the last night, we decided to do as the islanders do and cook a big seafood feast. Shocking update: two of the best fresh catch spots I’ve personally experienced were a hop skip and a jump away. We decided on Sea well, and the prices were incredible. We got out of there with pounds and pounds of fresh mussels, shrimp, oysters, and clams for just over $50. What a steal!
When we brought everything back to the house we had such a fun time cooking, the kitchen was the perfect size, it was big enough for the four of us to do what we needed without bumping elbows, but intimate enough for us to feel like we were doing it together. The hosts also provided all the tools we needed to get the job done (special thanks for the oyster shucker and industrial sized Le Cruset pot). I honestly still dream about that meal.
All in all our expectations were exceeded tenfold and we can’t wait for the opportunity to go back. Thank you Drew for allowing us to experience the absolute treasure of a home you have on your hands.
