Description
Newport, Rhode Island was a summer destination for New Yorkers who built seasonal homes there called cottages, but don't be fooled. These are mansions, or estates!
Many of these impressive homes are located on famous Ocean Drive, also called Ten Mile Drive, or, to the locals, simply The Drive.
There are beautiful views of the Atlantic Ocean and beaches, many rocky, all along this beautiful drive.
I expected to see extravagant (some would say ostentatious) homes along Ocean Drive, but the natural beauty of the area impressed me even more.
A brief visit to Newport left me longing for more. It stole a piece of my heart, and that surprised me!
