Looff Carousel

This is the oldest Loof carousel with stationary horses in the world. Is $1 per person per ride. Spins pretty fast for a carousel and is a lot of fun. My 2 year old loves it. Snack shop has drinks and popcorn and a few other small items. All the horses have been recently restored and they look amazing. It's a hidden treasure for the community to have such an amazing piece of history.

Only $1 to ride. Great fun!

Visiting the Looff Carousel at Slater Park is like stepping into a living piece of history. Built in 1895 by master carver Charles I.D. Looff, this beautifully preserved ride is more than just a carousel—it's a Rhode Island treasure. The hand-carved animals, including 44 horses with real horsehair tails, are exquisite works of art that capture the imagination of kids and adults alike What makes this experience even more special is the speed—this carousel spins fast! It’s thrilling, joyful, and surprisingly exhilarating it’s one of the best values around for a dose of pure nostalgia and fun The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, often sharing fascinating tidbits about the carousel’s history. The surrounding Slater Park is also a gem, with walking trails, picnic areas, and seasonal events that make it a perfect family outing Whether you're a local or just passing through, don’t miss the chance to ride this historic marvel. It’s a reminder of simpler times and the enduring magic of craftsmanship and community.

A very nice carousel. Very old, but in good shape. Fun for kids of all ages.

This is a must-see! Set in beautiful Slater Park, rides are $.50, and it's Iike taking a step back in time. The renovations that were done are amazing, keeping history alive.

Very nice place. My wife has to ride every carousel we come across so we had to stop and ride this one easy parking too

Adorable place for child's party. The staff is exceptional and helpful. My only complaint...no bathrooms. Outhouses down the road but being disabled, it was a difficult task.
