This 1874 Victorian Carpenter Gothic Stick-style structure is still a working lighthouse. The light was hand-cranked by a resident keeper until automation closed it down in 1964. Guided tours are of the former living quarters, and you can stroll through the award-winning gardens on your own.
Note that it is same style as the East Brother light in Richmond, California, which is now a B&B.
