  • A dream come true!

    December 2021 (Airbnb)

    Ronnie’s place is a dream come true! It’s the kind of place you see in a magazine or a top 10 list.

    The farmhouse is well maintained. It is full of vintage treasures that Ronnie shares with his guests!

    Ronnie is very kind and welcoming! He took us on a personal tour in the farm house and shared its story.

    He also came with a batch of fresh eggs from his chick coop every morning.

    The house is fully equipped with everything you might need. Fully stocked kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms!!

    It’s the perfect place for a staycation!

    January 2022 (Airbnb)

    Ronnie’s charming and beautiful farmhouse is home away from home. The wood elements, cozy decor, modern kitchen and one of the most comfortable beds I ever slept in was the perfect Rhode Island weekend. My family and I were treated with such thoughtfulness and care. And the fresh eggs were amazing!!! We fell in love. We’ll be back.

  • So much character and history…

    January 2022 (Airbnb)

    Cole Farm is an amazing place to stay. as well as all the conveniences of modern life. If we could give the host more than 5 stars we would. Our stay coincided with a snow storm and Ronnie was amazing in looking after us and making sure we were okay. Will definitely stay here again when in the area in future.
    Ps – the daily fresh eggs were very much appreciated.

  • easily one of the best places we’ve stayed.

  • Spectacular way to enjoy Providence !

    Spectacular way to enjoy Providence. Immaculately clean, lovely decorations, a host who sincerely went to special efforts to meet our every need. When he did not have a mattress pad for my wife's air mattress, he went out and bought one to have it ready when we arrived. A++++. Would love to visit the Cole Farm when we are next in Providence!
