Dr. John Champlin Glacier Park

Reviewed By Strudel57 - Westerly, United States

This park has wide dirt paths. It is a little hilly. I have never seen it crowded. Dogs are allowed, but not their poop. Many dog owners seem to ignore that rule. As with any wooded area, spray for ticks...no matter what time of year. Skip this place in hot summer as it is filled with mosquitoes. In the Fall, the crisp smell of the changing seasons, the brilliance of the changing color of the leaves and if you listen carefully you can hear the ocean which is about 1 mile away

The Towers

The remaining building left from the Narragansett Pier Casino fire now hosts events and dinner theaters.

Reviewed By 465ChristineD465 - West Greenwich, United States

This place is prime for any ocean view venue in the heart of Narragansett. We came in December for the Christmas cocktail caberet and it was elegant and perfect

Settler's Rock

Rock engraved with the names of the settlers who immigrated to the region in the 17th century.

Reviewed By lavidal2013 - Westhampton Beach, United States

This is right by the end of the pavement for the north lighthouse. It is interesting to read about the history of this island. Make a stop here on your way to the lighthouse.
