The historic and breathtaking Rose Island Lighthouse, situated between Jamestown and Newport, Rhode Island, has its name for a reason. When the tide slips out to sea, the land is said to take the shape of a rose. The lighthouse has incredibly narrow stairs that lead to a lantern where you can gawk at a sixth order Fresnel lens. What\u2019s so special about it? It <i>continues <\/i>to shed light in the Narragansett Bay today. The tower was built in 1870 and was used as a beacon for ships for an entire century. Though the beacon spent a few decades not in working condition, it was restored to its Victorian aesthetic in the 1990s. Now, the lighthouse serves a different purpose. Adventurers can book a few overnight stays or even a week and wake up to stunning views of at the sunrise over the bay.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>A trip to Rose Island offers much more than its lighthouse, though. It holds remnants of Revolutionary War bastions and mysterious bunkers that contain secrets of soldiers that lay sick within its walls, and a worn and torn leftover Naval torpedo.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_226622866-1.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_226622866-1.jpeg\" alt=\"rocky trail in Rhode Island park during fall\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_226622866-1.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_226622866-1-980x654.jpeg 980w, https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_226622866-1-480x320.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" \/><\/a><\/b><\/h2>\n<h2><b>Neutaconkanut Hill Park- Providence, Rhode Island<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Neutaconkanut Hill Park is an 88-acre essentially untouched wilderness surprisingly located inside the Providence city limits. The hill was the northwest boundary of the agreement of land between Roger Williams, the founder of the state, and the Narragansett Indians. It stands at 296 feet above sea level and is the highest point in Providence, so it has some pretty spectacular views of the downtown Providence skyline and Narragansett Bay. The area was owned by the Borden family until 1829 and then the King family until 1892. The wilderness includes glacial boulders, freshwater springs and walking trails created in the 1930s.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>today, the land is owned by the city of Providence and it preserved by the Neutaconkanut Hill Conservancy.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_417376426-1.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22635\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_417376426-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Mount Hope Bridge in Bristol, Rhode Island over the Foggy Mt Hope Bay\" width=\"1000\" height=\"615\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_417376426-1.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_417376426-1-980x603.jpeg 980w, https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_417376426-1-480x295.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>Mus\u00e9e Patam\u00e9canique- Bristol, Rhode Island<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n<p>This small, secret museum, founded in 2006, is a mixture of an Automaton Theater and a Cabinet of Curiosities.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>There might be one slight problem, though: no one knows <i>exactly <\/i>where this museum really is. Sure, it\u2019s in the Historical District of Bristol, Rhode Island, but the pinpoint location? Not a chance! Each tour begins around sunset by a guide who has already given the guests a time and place to meet. It could be anywhere in Bristol. Maybe a coffee shop, one of Bristol\u2019s public parks, a restaurant. It\u2019s never the same! Once the guide introduces himself, he gives each visitor a set of headphones and a map, presses the play button for the tour to begin, then strangely disappears, leaving guests confused but wanting more. The audio gives directions to the actual location of the exhibition.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>As for what\u2019s inside the museum, you\u2019ll find singing animatronic Chipmunks, a Time Machine, an olfactory clock, a chandelier of singing nightingales, the Earolin (a massive holographic ear that plays violin music), and a contraption that catches the dreams of bees.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Jerimoth Hill- Foster, Rhode Island<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Though this is one of the lowest high-points-by-elevation by state, for years it was one of the hardest hills to climb for anyone who tried. Located in the off parts of Rhode Island, Jerimoth Hill is the highest point of the state, but only 45th among the rest of the state high points. It really isn\u2019t too impressive until you learn that no one could access it for decades.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>For comparison, the highest elevated point in the U.S. is Alaska\u2019s Denali Peak, which is 20,320 feet above sea level. Jerimoth Hill, on the other hand, is only 812 feet. It all started in the 1980\u2019s when a man named Henry Richardson purchased the land the hill is on. He installed mother detectors to deter any trespassers that dared to climb the hill. The story goes Richardson would taunt and harass anyone who found their way on to the land unto they left. Eventually, he lowered his guard and sold the land to new owners who love nothing more than to see climbers and adventurers out around Jerimoth Hill. Today, the climb is simply a walk in the park.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_163201946-1.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22634\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_163201946-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Battery of cannons in a field\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_163201946-1.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_163201946-1-980x654.jpeg 980w, https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/AdobeStock_163201946-1-480x320.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>Hunter House- Newport, Rhode Island<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Right behind the bench of this 18th-century mansion is the only plaque that hints of the historic newspaper once printed within its walls. During the Revolutionary War, the French army was positioned at the Hunter House in Newport, RI. To get this news out quickly, a French newspaper was the only answer. Published in 1780, <i>La Gazette Francoise <\/i>is considered the first known service newspaper that was produced by an expeditionary force.

It appears to be a simple stone platform supported on a cylinder of rock, which clearly states the remains of a milling operation. However, upon closer inspection, carbon dating of the mortar from the stone suggests the building to date as far back as the 1600s. And though it was a relic in the 1800s, some still believe it\u2019s evidence of an earlier pre-Columbian building.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>To those believing this was here before Columbus, the tower strongly looks similar to Scottish buildings from the 1100s, hinting that a Templar settled the land.
