Photos and Description of the Prudence Island vacation cottage rental
1 bedroom, 1 bath (another shower outside), foldout couch in LR, sleeps 4

This home is a waterfront gem on Narragansett Bay, located on the neck of Prudence Island, overlooking Bristol Harbor to the east and Potters Cove to the west. We have our own stairway leading to a private beach below which offers a 300 lb. mooring and pulley line for smaller boats. On the south side of the neck (down our lane and across the street) is a lovely, quiet sandy beach perfect for morning walks or runs, skinny dipping and quahogging. Return from the beach to a relaxing outdoor shower. Our large backyard is surrounded by a 6 foot cedar fence leaving 100 feet of uniquely private uninterrupted, panoramic views of the bay. These bay views can be enjoyed off of the large waterside deck, on the sleepy hammock or in front of the firepit.

House Layout: Hardwood floors throughout, our home is a quaint, one-bedroom cottage with a queen-size bed and pull out couch which sleeps two. The kitchen is galley with granite countertops. The bathroom has a stackable washer and dryer and custom tiled shower.

The Basics: A ferry is required to get to and from Prudence. There are no shops or restuarants on the island. There is one general store and a few local farmstands. The house is two miles from the ferry homestead in a very private neighborhood. Prudence is perfect for sailing, boating, beach combing, walking and biking. Since many of the roads are unpaved it is suggested to bring your mountain bike. With a large backyard and sprawling views of the bay, our property is an ideal venue for small, private wedding ceremonies (2 so far!).

Bristol: The ferry leaves from downtown Bristol, Rhode Island. Bristol is an historic harborside town speckled with quaint shops, restaurants, bars and ice cream stands. Bristol offers a convenient excursion for our guests as it is not necessary to bring your car. You need only leave your vehicle at the ferry homestead and walk right onto the ferry.

At first we were a little reluctant to vacation on an island. Packing for a week was going to be a challenge. When we got to the house and opened the gate, we were totally blown away. It is a piece of paradise! Everything is exactly as described. Kristin and Jim were wonderful. Our favorite spot was around the fire pit. Being able to see the bay when you opened your eyes in the morning was unbelievable. A wonderful place to bring your four legged companion. All and all our week on Prudence Island was a wonderful experience. We most certainly will return next year. It was hard to leave it behind. Thank you so much Kristin & Jim for sharing your home.

Hectic life came to a screeching halt as soon as we walked through the cedar gate. Heaven on earth! For me, my 2 kids and our dog it was an opportunity to have a week together without interruption. The home is beautiful and welcoming. Perfect vacation if all you need is nature and board games to entertain you! (they do have TV w/satellite) My 19 year old said it was the best vacation ever; my 22 year old had only one regret, that he didn’t discover the hiking trails earlier in the week, they were lovely.
For a mom with kids on the verge of leaving the nest it was the perfect vacation, having them all to myself. And if you are a dog owner, you will know how happy our dog was to have his humans within earshot for 7 straight days! I will be going back!

Great stay!

My husband, 2 year old daughter, and I had a wonderful week at the Towers' cottage. The house is clean, airy, and nicely decorated. The glass doors and surrounding windows make for a beautiful view- even at night. Sunsets were our favorite time, with s'mores around the fire. The house maintains a cool temperature at night- even for our family, who lives with central air almost 100% of the time, we were not uncomfortable at all (day time temps in the mid to high 80s). At 27 weeks pregnant, I have a hard time sleeping anywhere, but the queen bed was heavenly- I am wishing I had it now at home!
The island is truly one of a kind- filled with friendly people and quiet beaches. The waves were great for our two year old- she was able to play and get into the water without being knocked down- the water is shallow and pleasant. We enjoyed the small playground at the Prudence School House, as well as jam and muffins we purchased from the self-serve honey stand.
Jim and Kristin were a breeze to work with- friendly, responsive, and thoughtful. (And we had lots of dance parties with their cd stash...I thought we were the only family with Jimmy Buffet AND Pearl Jam in our collection).
Truly a great getaway for those who enjoy a slow paced, relaxing vacation. Just don't forget your bug spray!
We will be back!
Steve, McKenzie, & Vi.

Great Cottage - Fishing and Claming was excellent

4 of 5
Submitted: October 13, 2011 Stayed: September 2011
We had a great time at the Cottage. The only downside of the cottage was a lightly stocked kitchen there were hardly any useable knives and only 1 wine glass, also need to have Lobster pots and some larger saute pans also the TV in the bedroom was not working. But otherwise the place was great our dog Bailey loved the backyard and we all enjoyed the walks on sandy beach. We also loved the views from the backyard and enjoyed the firepit. I fished just down the road at a cement pier and caught lots of scup and small bluefish, I clammed at dead low tide over on sandy beach where jennys creek empties into the bay scraped up lots of littlenecks and top neck clams and boy were they great you will need to bring your own clam rake and bucket though as the cottage has neither. There were lots of wild apple and pear trees and the fruit was amazing also the island provides some of the best views and the water quality is great. You can fish off the old navy pier and i'm sure in October the Blackfishing (tautog) and Striper fishing is great, Also you can get all the bait you need on the island at low tide just turn over some rocks and there are loads of small green crabs that are Tog candy plus the large chowder clams can be dug in any shollow bay. We would go back there again. Gave 4 stars only because of the Kitchen stated above.
