Welcome to the Sand Dollar Inn


Welcome to the Sand Dollar Inn. Russ and Linda West developed and introduced the Sand Dollar Inn to Westerly, Rhode Island visitors in July of 1994. This was a proud occasion for them to fulfill part of a dream. Their dream to share the beauty of South County, Rhode Island, and introduce their renovated property/accommodations to visitors, became a reality.

We welcome you to visit with us during any of the seasons. Though each season has something different to offer you, the uniqueness of the unspoiled seaside community of Westerly remains the same. The calm, natural beauty of the beaches and surrounding towns, shopping in an unrushed quiet atmosphere and so many other things one can only savor, can be discovered for oneself while visiting South County.

Here at the Sand Dollar we hope to be an integral part of your visit. The unceasing efforts to make our guests feel at home will continue the dream.
