Little Compton

The heart of the Farm Coast, Little Compton is often referred to as “Vermont on the Ocean.” Surrounded on 3 sides by the Atlantic Ocean, Little Compton’s character is defined by farmland, beaches, meadows, coastal ponds, and woodlands. It is unique in Rhode Island for its Agricultural Conservancy Trust, which funds the preservation of farmland and has resulted in the protection of over 2,100 acres to date. It is also home to The Commons, the last of Rhode Island’s town commons. Near it you will find galleries, local artisan craft shops, cafes, antique shops, and roads that are lightly traveled. This is a place of retreat, whether your home here is year-round or seasonal.
