The historic Weekapaug Inn sits overlooking Quanochontaug Pond and Block Island Sound. Nearly every room and suite offer views of the water, salt marsh, and vast ocean lit sky. Other lodging accommodations include residence style suites – with expansive water views, ensuite bathrooms, and private, fully furnished decks – and the Salt Spray Farm Cottage. This 3,000- square-foot barn style cottage sits on 13 acres of land located close to the pond and beach. All of the newly renovated rooms are air conditioned, but windows still open to welcome the sweet fragrance of sun-warmed marsh grasses, rosa rugosa and salty breezes. The inn’s naturalist takes guests out onto the water, and into the marshes to explore the area’s unique flora and fauna.

The beauty of the New England coast and charm of a small coastal village seem to rise up the hill and drift through the windows at the luxury, all-suite Watch Hill Inn. This direct descendant of a Gilded Age hotel in this vacation community perches above an ocean cove and a glorious sand spit – Napatree Point – that offers an uplifting beach-and-dune walk. Rest or play in the waves at the private beach of neighboring Ocean House. If you hanker for time on the water, the Inn’s nearby sister property, the Weekapaug Inn, has boathouse with kayaks, paddle boards, and small sailboats to use. Weekapaug’s on-staff naturalist coaches guests in watercraft use and fishing. Or take a motorboat safari and explore coastal plants and animals.
