Talk about a memorable stay. This historic lighthouse, once operated by the U.S. Coast Guard, has now been renovated and made available for rentals by the week (and occasionally, a weekend during the off season). It’s a steep price point ranging from $600-$1,000 per night, but for maritime lovers, it’s the chance to live the life of a lighthouse keeper. Expansive Atlantic Ocean views included. You’ll enter the light tower through a breezeway attached to the family room and climb a mahogany spiral staircase to the top. You can see all of our recommended historic stays with kids here.
Three bedrooms offer a queen and two sets of single beds, while a pull-out sofa can accommodate two more. (Note that you’ll need to bring your own linens.) A kitchen, full bath and outdoor shower are convenient, but the private beach is a real treat. Beach toys and towels are available at the home.
