A third generation tree farmer regenerating this property to keep it as a land sanctuary for humanity and wildlife to thrive in harmony. This is a project of my brother and I, to create a healing center / space for people to come connect with the land. ***We are not part of the winery adjacent to our property*** We keep the land as wild, minimum maintenance/ human disturbance as possible. We have just built a deck to put a yurt on site for healing sessions. I am a cranial sacral therapist and did my yoga teacher training in India, taught in India, Australia, Hawaii, now RI! If you are interested in sessions please reach out to me. I host women's gatherings here on the land as well as seasonal celebrations (solstice and equinox). Creating common unity. tribe.visionaryfund.com/leydensregeneration All money through hipcamp and visionary fund goes directly towards the land... Regeneration, planting, maintaining, taxes and future projects awaiting to be funded! Thank you. Step 1: get people back on it. Come live off grid for a bit in West Greenwich. Must have your own water, head lamps; respect for the land. 1.5 hour drive from Boston 3 hour drive from NYC 40 minutes to Providence, Newport, Mystic CT. and all RI beaches. ENJOY :)

Private 2.2-Acre RV Basecamp on Route 3 | Loaded with Amenities | Centrally Located near I-95 Welcome to your private Rhode Island basecamp! Set privately in the backyard behind a vacant, vintage single-story structure, this dedicated 2.2-acre RV site offers complete privacy from the road, directing all attention to the open green space, outdoor amenities, and dark night skies. Tailored for road-trippers, dog owners, and active travelers, it is an ideal spot to plug in, unwind, and recharge before your next day’s adventure. Located directly on Route 3 with close access to I-95, this site is centrally located so you can be on the road in minutes—making easy day trips to the beaches of Watch Hill, historic Newport, local wineries, golf courses, or nearby hiking and fishing trails. Amenities for RVers & Outdoor Lovers: Utility Access: Dedicated 30-amp electric hookup (moveable) and clean, pristine potable water. Epic Natural Fire Pit: An impressively large, natural stone fire pit designed for gathering, story-swapping, and stargazing under dark night skies. Outdoor Comforts: Screened-in rustic porch, propane grill, and an outdoor dining table with chairs and umbrella. Convenient Facilities: Outdoor rinse shower, hot and cold utility spigots, and an on-site portable restroom to help you conserve your RV holding tanks. Pet Setup: Dog-friendly with two installed dog runners plus a moveable tie-out post available for your pets. A Note on Setting & Sound: This property offers a unique blend of natural surroundings and prime transit convenience. While the backyard features dark skies and mature greenery, the property is located directly on Route 3 with Interstate 95 running behind the property line. Recent clearing and construction in the corridor have opened up the buffer, so highway and road traffic is clearly audible outdoors. If you are looking for complete deep-woods isolation to sit outside all day, this site may not be the right fit. But if you want a private, amenity-rich launchpad to recharge your rig after a full day exploring coastal New England, this spot delivers unbeatable convenience.

The Sandbox campground was born from The Sandbox Indoor Beach Sports and Events facility, which mainly focuses on providing year round beach volleyball. We bought the property in 2015 and opened the facility in 2019. As it happens, it's a 12+ acre lot surrounded by wetlands, hiking and biking trails ... there will never be another building built within view of our facility. We are surrounded by nature, and will be forever. So what a great opportunity to offer camping and access to all of the forests, woodlands, wetlands and trails around! And if you're up for it, come play some beach volleyball and meet new lifelong friends :)

Touro Synagogue National Historic Site camping guide

Overview

About

Marvel at this beautifully preserved house of worship in Newport, Rhode Island. It's the oldest synagogue building in North America. Dedicated in 1763, the Touro Synagogue, or Congregation Jeshuat Israel, continues to serve as a thriving congregation.

One of the most historically significant Jewish buildings in America is also the only surviving colonial synagogue in the U.S. It's considered one of the 10 most architecturally distinguished buildings of 18th century America.

The synagogue faces east, toward Jerusalem. The interior is flanked by 12 Ionic columns to represent the 12 tribes of ancient Israel. Each column is carved from a single tree. Newport artist Benjamin Howland painted a mural depicting the Ten Commandments in Hebrew that hangs above the Torah ark.

Start your visit with a stop in the Loeb Visitors Center on site. You'll learn the history of the congregation that was founded in 1658. They were descendants of Jewish families who fled the Inquisitions in Spain and Portugal. In 1790, President George Washington penned his famous letter to the "Hebrew congregation at Newport." In it, he pledged that America would give "to bigotry no sanction and to persecution no assistance."

You can pay a moderate fee to tour the exquisite synagogue when it's not operating as a house of worship. The grandeur of the building and the historic significance make this national site well worth your time.
