The Coventry center point is approximately 10 miles west of Rhode Island Mall and 10 miles west of Rhode Island Army Natl Guard.
Fall is arguably the best time for visiting Coventry. The town isn't as busy as it is during summer, when tourists take advantage of the warm weather and extended school vacation. With fewer visitors in town, you'll pay less for your accommodation. However, you'll still enjoy great weather, with average daily tops in the 60s. George B. Parker Woodland also looks its best with the leaves changing to red and gold.
Daytime temperatures in summer range from the low 70s to low 80s, perfect for swimming at Briar Point Beach. However, the tourist rush means you'll pay extra for that summer getaway.
Spring is a little cooler than fall, especially during the start of the season. It's also Coventry's wettest season, with most of the town's yearly rain falling during March and April. You might get a great price on a spring getaway, but you should check the forecast before setting off.
Only the bravest travelers visit Coventry during winter. The season is bitterly cold, with average daily highs in the mid-30s to mid-40s.

Coventry has several villages formed in the 19th century. Exploring their streets is a fantastic way to spend your time in Coventry.
Anthony is a mill village in Coventry's east. Its historic district, a 250-acre space in the heart of the village, earned a place on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.
Blackrock is Anthony's neighbor and a site of Native American importance. It gets its name for the enormous dark-colored rock which still stands on Blackrock Road. It's thought that Native American people conducted marriage ceremonies by the rock generations ago.
Fairbanks is another mill village in Coventry, located close to the Connecticut border. It was named for George Fairbank, a Massachusetts businessman who established a wool mill in the village. His house is one of the few original buildings of historical importance still standing in Fairbanks today.
Visiting Hopkins Hollow, a rural village in Coventry's southwest, is like stepping back in time, with most parts unchanged in more than 150 years. Another area listed on the National Register of Historic Places, its American colonial and Federal-era buildings are so impressive. The Greek Revival-style Hopkins Hollow Church is an excellent example of mid-19th century architecture.
Rice City, in Coventry's northwest, is another highlight for architecture enthusiasts. It's famous for its Greek Revival- and Federal-style homes and prominent buildings including the Rice City Church, Obadiah Potter House, and Rice Tavern, one of Rice City's oldest buildings constructed in 1804.

Below are reviews of the city of Coventry, RI from an actual visitor's perspective.
Donna, Elizabeth and Stacey. The pool and the incredible breakfast that Stacey prepared. My granddaughters and I truly enjoyed what Stacey had prepared and her warm and sincere personality. A true gem.
I love Coventry I lived here for over 30 years ago.
The room was comfortable and clean. I was in and out for a sports competition so I didn't get to experience much of the area but there was a lot available in terms of food and entertainment.
Two restaurants in walking distance from hotel.
Coventry is a very nice community.
Great
