Stay at the Keeper’s House

Stay for a week at this residence that was used by lighthouse keepers from its construction in 1875 until 1950, when the light was automated and keepers were no longer needed.

You’ll be steps from Nauset Light Beach, and our beacon is your night light. 

Renting a historical lighthouse keeper's house is an extraordinary opportunity to immerse oneself in a bygone era. The charm and significance of such a dwelling, steeped in the history and stories of the past, can offer a truly unique experience. From the creaking floorboards to the panoramic views of the sea, every corner likely holds a tale waiting to be discovered.

Staying in a house that once served as a beacon of safety for sailors navigating treacherous waters provides a profound connection to maritime history. Imagine waking up to the sound of waves crashing and feeling the same sea breeze that lighthouse keepers of yesteryear experienced as they tended to their duties.

Exploring the nooks and crannies of the house, one can almost hear the echoes of conversations among keepers long gone, envision the routine of daily tasks, and appreciate the solitude and resilience required for a life dedicated to guiding ships to safety.

While it may be a step back in time, it's also an opportunity to reflect on the simplicity and endurance of those who came before us. The chance to inhabit such a space offers more than just a place to stay; it's an invitation to become part of the living history of a coastal community.
