About this property
Historic Browns Head Lighthouse – Coastal Views on Vinalhaven Island, Maine!
Step into the role of a lighthouse keeper at historic Browns Head Lighthouse, an active U.S. Coast Guard beacon perched atop a volcanic outcrop on the shores of Vinalhaven Island, Maine. Overlooking the Fox Islands Thoroughfare and the rugged beauty of Penobscot Bay, this fully restored two-bedroom keeper’s house offers a rare opportunity to experience life beside a working lighthouse still guiding mariners with its original 4th order Fresnel lens. Set on 12 private acres in one of the East Coast’s largest lobster fishing communities, guests can wake to the sound of waves and seabirds, watch the rhythm of the working waterfront unfold, explore the rocky shoreline, and take in unforgettable sunsets from a perspective once reserved only for lighthouse keepers. Blending historic charm with modern comfort, Browns Head invites those seeking solitude, authenticity, and a truly unique Maine coastal experience to relax, reconnect, and create lasting memories.
