City/town information

Heading into downtown Newport? There are tons of restaurants and shops at your disposal down on the wharfs at Thames Street (~2.5 miles [4km] away). History buff or love architecture? Newport is renowned for their mansions: The Breakers, The Elms, Marble House, Rosecliff, and more! Sticking to the great outdoors? Check out the State Parks nearby (Brenton and Fort Adams).

Middletown is located in the 'middle' of Aquidneck Island, sandwiched between Portsmouth to the north, and Newport, to the south. Close enough to all the action of Newport (less than a 10 minute drive to Thames Street!), but far enough to have more seascapes than cityscapes.
