      Welcome to the "Light!"

 Thanks to all for your continued support
during this very difficult
 time in our lives.
Wishing you all a Happy & HEALTHY new year!


"
"A lighthouse is a welcoming structure, a reassuring sign of steady ground ahead, an optimistic symbol of hope for all looking to move forward safely.  It is an emblem of strength located at the edge of unpredictable seas as it provides guidance and light among the darkest of nights.
​Resilient and immovable, this shining beacon encourages perseverance even in the most treacherous of storms."  
-Anonymous

*** SPECIAL NOTICE TO OUR GUEST LIGHT KEEPERS***
We are following CDC protocols with cleaning & sanitizing.  The lighthouse is a private home and as I am sure you are doing the best in keeping your homes safe, we are doing the same. However, we are asking future guests to please use respect and etiquette - if you have had contact with anyone, or suffering any symptoms of Covid-19, we will be happy to reschedule your stay.
If you prefer, you are welcomed to bring your own linens, pillows, kitchenware, etc. 
Keep in mind, it’s a vacation home, and along with going to supermarkets, retail stores or your workplace, you are at risk no matter where you travel.  We feel the Lighthouse, with its isolation, is and has been one of the safest places to be throughout this crisis.

  We look forward to having you as our Light Keepers in 2021 and thank you again for your support!

     Located at the north end of Mt. Hope Bay, between Somerset and Fall River, Massachusetts, Borden Flats Lighthouse, circa 1881, still shines in all her glory, and is available for overnights to experience the role of a historic Lighthouse Keeper, with our
Light Keepers Overnight Educational Program.
Our Light Keepers Program offers the public the ability to take part in a one-of-a-kind overnight experience, living the role of our brave
19th century Lighthouse Keepers.

           With your role as an honorary Light Keeper, you will have the ability to become a living part of history in one of only two offshore "spark plug" style lighthouses in America that is fully restored and offered to the public for a truly unique experience.  Your overnight Keeper stay serves as your contribution to the ongoing preservation of this historic landmark, which is proudly listed on the National Registry of Historic Places by the National Park Service.
 
     
We so look forward to having you as our honorary Light Keepers!
