Re: Marriott Vacation Club "Destinations" - What I Like and What I've Done (by Jean F.):
[For a "funky" fun beach, check out Misquamicut Beach, near Westerly, and you have to go to Paddy's Wigwam, restaurant right on the beach, where there's always something going on. There's also a neat scenic venue called Watch Hill nearby Misquamicut; like 2 miles away. That's the thing about RI ... you can be almost anywhere within an hour! : ) You could also visit Mystic Seaport, CT which is old mariner town, very closeby Misquamicut/Watch Hill. Just taking a coast ride is nice too. Have you ventured to Cape Cod? My husband was born there in Falmouth and there are some wonderful places there to check out; it's actually closer from Providence for a day trip rather than Boston, just FYI. New England is wonderful, full of old colonial history and beautiful venues. Have a blast!
