Travel Guide

Boyd's Windmill, also known as Boyd's Wind Grist Mill, is a historic smock mill in Middletown, Rhode Island. John Peterson built the windmill in 1810, and William Boyd purchased it in 1815. It originally had four common sails, but four more were added by the family. The mill is a timber-frame structure, octagonal in shape, and about 30 feet (9.1 m) tall, with a rotating cap powered by eight vanes with canvas sheets. The mill is located on a public area so the grounds are open. The windmill itself is open to the public on Sunday afternoons in July, August and September. #windmill #travel

Our room was spotless and very comfortable. Staff was very friendly. It was a girls getaway for my daughter myself and 5 1/2 year old granddaughter. They let us check out a little late so we could use the pool"one more time" :)
