Rhode Island is not wildly famous for its waterfalls. At first glance, our stunning coast claims most of the glory when it comes to natural attractions. However, not all of our natural wonders are located in plain sight. Tucked away in a forest of western Rhode Island is a slide waterfall that’s definitely worth checking out.

Nicholas Farm Management Area is a 1429-acre natural area preserved by the state in Coventry. The land is mostly forested but has some wetlands, open fields, a pond, and a river making it a fantastic place to explore.

Many say that Carbuncle Pond is the highlight of Nicholas Farm. The scenic views are awe-inspiring and the trout fishing is top-notch.
