A beautiful lighthouse with a great view of the Chesapeake Bay. It had a visitor's center with a video about the history of the lighthouse. However, you could only walk into the lower part of the lighthouse.
Enjoyed the view, was not able to climb up though. Accessible by car, check website for open hours. Worth the drive to see
Too much to tell here. We stayed in the lighthouse keepers house and had a great time. The house was comfortable and tastefully appointed with two full kitchens, six comfortable bedrooms and six spotless bathrooms. The AC is museum quality so the house was always comfortable regardless of record high temperatures outside. The house can be partitioned into two separate apartments.
It was cool to see but much smaller than we expected. And you cannot go up in the light house like you can in other places. So it's more of a small museum and seeing the outside of the light house.
Very quite a place that makes you feel like your the only one in the world, where you are one with the ocean. This is a place were you can sit on the porch and take in your surrounds, plus the soft gental breeze will have you falling a sleep in the chair on the porch as well. Also take in the history or the area. I personaly have never stayed at this place but have worked on the grounds for just one day, and this is what I felt.
While there, don't forget to visit the Calvert Marine Museum, which operates the facility.
You can enter the lighthouse but you can climb to the top. Even still got get a feel for the high quality of its construction. There is an interpreters station staged with a docent who explains the history and function of the lighthouse.
One of the best activities during your stay is the private beach. You can't swim there because of rip tides, but you can spend your entire stay there just looking through the abundant fossils to be found on the beach.
This vacation was an enriching experience for the whole family and an outstanding value.
