US RT 44 Five Mile River Rest Area
9commentsIt is just a quiet, pull off-rest area/fishing area on RT 44 in East Putnam. It is frequented by fishermen and kids swimming at the swimming hole right at the pull-off. There does seem to be a steady clientele of men looking for action. Some trolls and older guys, we need to make this a hot spot for hot young guys, too! Hey, the 3- rating is just something I had to pick. I think it could be a hot spot though... :)

The guide
Where exactly
US RT 44 towards Rhode Island from East Putnam. Look for blue and white signs stating: 'Five Mile River'. Parking area is on the right when heading east on RT 44. Approx. 1 1/2 miles from RI state line. Cross street: Munyan Rd.
Cruisiest spot: Pull in and either sit in car or walk into woods. There is a trail along the 'river' that leads both to fishing spots and quiet areas for fun.
When to go
Lunchtime and early evening hours.
Sunset today · Sunrise tomorrow
Etiquette
Pull in and park. Get out and go for a walk along the river or up into the back woodline.
Safety
Family outings, fishermen and trolls. No major concerns, just be careful as in any other outdoor, public area.

The powers that be have blocked off the entrance to this place with concrete barriers. Must have been getting complaints.

OK I just went bi this place last Friday and all the Jersey barriers are all gone, so I guess this place is OPEN again. Don't know why they closed it to begin with. I wonder if all the fishermen that visit this place complained and got it opened up.
