Here are 3 Rhode Island vacation locations that you may want to consider:

Idea #1: Located in the Blackstone Valley Region, Kids will Love a Visit to Daggett Farm in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Located on the old grounds of the Slater Park Zoo in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, the Daggett Farm and Greenhouse was established in 1999. The proceeds from the Daggett Farm and Greenhouse and Gift Shop support programs to benefit those with developmental disabilities. This means that a visit to the farm and gift shop is more than just fun and educational; it can also make a difference in peoples’ lives.

Idea #2: Fort Adams State Park is a wonderful attraction to visit in Newport, Rhode Island.  Its natural harbor location made Fort Adams an important and heavily armed fort from the Revolutionary War all the way through modern times.

It is also a favorite spot people visit to enjoy a variety of water-based activities, field sports and picnicking.
