Lighthouses are important marine navigational tools that have been in use for thousands of years. Their lights guide ships through coastal waters and inland waterways. However, many of these structures have become obsolete with the advent of modern navigation technology.
Some lighthouses are abandoned and sold to private buyers, while others are restored and turned into bed and breakfasts or vacation homes. Depending on the location, these accommodations offer guests the chance to learn about local maritime history and the area’s natural beauty.
Lighthouses are built to withstand powerful swells and hurricane-force winds. In addition, they offer peace and quiet. The unique ambiance of a lighthouse is often a draw for those who want to escape to the sea for a few days.
The Big Bay Point Lighthouse is one of the last functioning lighthouses in the United States. It is an ideal destination for hiking and other outdoor activities. It also offers rooms with en-suite bathrooms, named after former keepers.
Another example is the Victorian lighthouse on Lake Ontario. The property was rebuilt after being damaged in the mid-1950s. It was relit in 1996. It’s now a bed and breakfast, and is listed for sale at $1.5 million.
Another option is a floating lighthouse. These structures feature maritime decor and open-air decks. Some lighthouses are located on Taunton River and the Bay of Fundy. These properties are available for rent, and are a great way to enjoy a getaway near major metropolitan areas.
