Enjoy a memorable visit when you stay in this unique place. One block from Blue Beach and boat ramp on Wickford Harbor. A short drive to Newport and Narragansett, RI. Sailing, fishing, dining and shopping Beaches, kayaking, paddleboarding and many other attractions. 122 Sauga Avenue is located in the tucked away neighborhood of Shore Acres on Sauga Point. Founded over one hundred years ago, this quiet, coastal gem meets the warm summer waters of Narragansett Bay and Wickford Harbor. Watching the sunrise from Blue Beach (just one block away) You can view the calm morning waters of the West Passage and witness the beauty and tranquility that caught the attention of Rhode Island’s first settlers four centuries ago. With summers stretching through September and waters remaining warm above seventy degrees Sauga Point is a small New England paradise. The area allows for great sailing and all water sports with easy access to the towns and villages Newport, Wickford, Jamestown, Westerly and Narragansett. Ferries connect to Martha’s Vinyard and Block Island daily from Quonset Point just down the road, or from Point Judith and the port of Galilee. On the opposite shore of Our small peninsula is the neighborhood boat ramp that Accesses Wickford harbor and Mill Cove. With some quick research you may pick up a guest mooring or slip at one of the many Wharfs or Marinas that are also the Mariners gateway to the historic village. Our house is located a few minutes walk from the ramp where you can come ashore from the well protected mooring field. We have our own family history here as well. This is where we learned to sail, swim and experience all the greatness of this area. Our Dad, Joseph did the same as a boy who then became a sailing Captain of the sea. Years ago he recognized the “perfect place to live” from his boat. He rowed to the ramp, walked up the street and then discovered a corner home with a little garage in the back. Dad always loved things that “needed a little work” so 122 Sauga became his new home ashore. The garage has always been referred to as “Snorks Place”. Named so by the painted words over the door of the soon-to-be workshop that always needed work of its own. Dad rebuilt the house and after that, replaced the work shack with a top floor apartment. The apartment is still named Snorks Place or just Snorks as our family and friends refer to it. Dad built Snorks as a cozy and bright get away nest with the feel of a ships cabin with wood floors and galley kitchenette. A Murphy Bed allows for the enlargement of floor space when needed as well as the Head (small bathroom). and lots of windows for great natural light. many of these features always remind us of the boats we grew up sailing. Our Pop loved to share the amazing experiences of land and sea to all those who adventured as well as educating and guiding those who would become Adventurers. Dad would say “Welcome aboard”! We say Welcome to Snorks!
