Crescent Park Looff Carousel

An 1895 carousel featuring 66 hand-carved figures.

Reviewed By 755vickiv

What a great ride. Took us back to our childhood days...senior discounts and the attendants were most helpful to ensure that everyone had a great ride. The carousel horses were sturdy and most beautiful. Outside riders had the chance to snag a brass (plastic) ring.

Wright's Dairy Farm and Bakery

Reviewed By pen1 - Dexter, United States

Went to pick up a birthday cake for my wifes aunt's 95th birthday. Being from the bland midwest, I was pleasantly surpirsed and pleasedd by the variety of cakes and pastry available. I bought and devoured, over the course of a day, several cinnamon rolls, several sticky buns and two other coffee pastries. They were the best I have had in over a decade.

McCoy Stadium

A popular baseball field (home of the Pawtucket Red Sox) for minor-league games that draws a huge crowd.

Reviewed By JeffreyH21 - Erie, United States

Traveled to Pawtucket to see the Sox play. Despite a 6-3 loss to Syracuse, I had a great time. The stadium is a quaint park, rich with history. The memories are posted around the entire park. Not a bad seat in the house, reasonably priced and ample parking! The people there are very friendly, the staff in the Pro shop are very accommodating. Was great seeing a game in the park that was host to the longest professional game ever played, 33 innings. Stop by the Right Place, just up from the stadium for a great pre-game meal and interesting chat about the Sox (Paw or Bo) the Patriots, Celtics or Bruins!

Slater Mill Museum

A National Historic Landmark, the Slater Mill is a living history museum and educational center.

Reviewed By 612BarbaraH612 - Worcester, United States

We stopped at Slater Mill to check out the southern end of the Blackstone River Valley National Historic Park. We started at the Slater Mill visitor center, but the docent there suggested we start at another visitor center across the street from the mill complex. We started there, looking at their posters and timeline. Then we watched a short video which provided another level of information specific to the mills that were built along the river. We returned to Slater Mill and the docent, Dee, took us on an excellent tour of the 3 historic buildings in the mill area: the Sylvanus Brown House, the Wilkinson Mill and the Slater Mill. There is a lot to see and learn here, so allow plenty of time and ask lots of questions!

Blackstone River and Canal Heritage State Park

In the late 1800s industries in the Blackstone River Valley used this canal to transport textiles between Providence and central Massachusetts.

Well maintained park with an easy 4 mile walking/biking trail along the 1700's canal and the pretty Blackstone River.
