Rhode Island might be the smallest state in America, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of places to enjoy a staycation. After all, there are countless places nestled along the coast of the Ocean State perfect for a weekend getaway, including this Newport houseboat listed on Airbnb. Ready for a weekend spent on the water, drinking coffee overlooking the harbor in the morning, exploring Newport during the day, and being gently lulled to sleep by the rocking boat at night? It really doesn’t get much better than this.

Conveniently located and secured on a dock, within the northern end of Newport Harbor, Casey’s Captain Carl Houseboat is an absolute dream.
