Top 10 Gear Rentals in Rhode Island, United States

February 1, 2022 Matilde Konrad

With the perfect combination of great seaside views, colorful local culture, and endless family activities, Rhode Island is a big vacation destination in a small package. Whether you are into art and culture, beautiful seaside sights, or great family-friendly activities, there is sure to be something for you in Rhode Island. If you're staying in Newport, try a breathtaking tour of the harbor in the Schooner Madeleine, or enjoy a bit of history at Fort Adams State Park. The Newport mansions are one of the most popular attractions around, and the nearby Cliff Walk is a great place for a hike. Narragansett is home to the lovely Narragansett Town Beach and Point Judith Lighthouse, and if you hop on the Block Island Ferry you are only a short trip away from Block Island, where you can enjoy the sights of the Mohegan Bluffs or party it up at Capt. Nick's Rock and Roll Bar. Take a drive up to Providence for some great shopping at Providence Place Mall and to visit the unforgettable Roger Williams Park Zoo.

We rented bicycles from Peter to explore Block Island during our honeymoon. Since we rented after 5pm, the next day was free! We had the bicycles for over 24 hours for $40 each. Peter equipped us with a lock and a helmet (both included in the rental). We both got bikes with collapsable baskets (also included in our rental!) If you are interested in exploring Block Island by bicycle, rent from Beach Rose!

Thank you Mark for refurbishing my bike! I picked it up today and was very pleased. Not only does my 20 year old bike look brand-new, but it rides as it did when I bought it. On top of that, it was ready in less than a week! Highly recommend this bike shop, very satisfied.

My family of 4 had so much fun renting the scoot coups! What a great & fun way to see the city of Newport. The staff was very friendly, they explained how to operate the coups in detail, they were super easy to use, and were so much fun! We rented them for 1 hour which was more than enough time to drive Ocean Drive and get out plenty of times for pit stops. I would highly recommend!!!
