Built in 1904, this lighthouse was living quarters for the keeper and his family for over 50 years.
Keepers:
William Joseph Melanson, 1905-1950.
Louise Melanson, 1951-1972.
After Louise passed away, the lighthouse was boarded up until 1984, when it was repaired and turned into a small museum and gift shop. Unlike many lighthouses, this one was free of charge to enter. A steep stairway brings you to the light, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this beautiful place.
