For $600+ a night, depending on the season, you can claim this lighthouse as your own. Off the coast of North Haven, this Victorian 60' "sparkplug" lighthouse is completely surrounded by ocean in Fox Island Thorofare and is the only offshore lighthouse in Eastern Seaboard you can stay in!

According to the AirBnb description, "About 20' in diameter at the base (reducing to a bunkroom at 9' in diameter and beacon room at 6' in diameter), the living room and bedrooms are brick-lined with natural light and "gemutlich" antique furnishings and linens. Level 1 is the living room, Level 2 features a queen bedroom, Level 3 is the master bedroom, Level 4 is the bunkroom, and level 5 is the beacon room!"

This overnight adventure is not for the weary. The listing says you must be athletic and willing to scale a tall ladder with your luggage and supplies. Your host will transport you to and from the lighthouse and only unsafe sea conditions will prevent you from making the journey to your temporary home at sea.

"Whether 'bucket list' experience, eco-tourism destination, or romantic getaway (and Goose Rocks is INCREDIBLY romantic), the key is to approach your stay with a laid-back attitude and sense of adventure. This is not so much 'accommodation' as it is the experience of being a lighthouse keeper," says AirBnb host K.C.

As for the function of the lighthouse, it is an active lighthouse which means the light flashes and the foghorn will sound in certain conditions. It's all part of the experience. And earplugs will be provided.
