Rated as one of the top places to fish in Rhode Island, the numerous ponds, lakes and streams are stocked each spring with trout. Plus, there are acres upon acres of woodlands to trek in the Northwest Corner, and the two golf courses that snake around our town are both breathtaking and challenging.
