12 Lighthouse Airbnb Rentals for a Coastal Getaway - AFAR

"Located on a seven-acre point at one of the narrowest spots on the Chesapeake Bay, this still-active lighthouse—established in 1828—is Maryland’s oldest continuously operating light and includes a 40-foot brick tower and a keeper’s cottage expanded into a duplex in 1925. The entire house is available to rent (with options for smaller parties to take one side), and outdoor features include screened porches with bay views and a beach where kids enjoy hunting for shark teeth and seashells." - Nicholas DeRenzo

The 51 Most Wish-Listed Airbnbs in the United States - AFAR

"A 193-year-old lighthouse keeper’s house reimagined as a large, historic retreat with six bedrooms (sleeping up to 16); it combines period charm—perfect for reading by lamplight—with communal spaces for groups, and rental proceeds help support an endowment for the site’s continued care." - Lyndsey Matthews

Amazing unique place for an overnight stay. Stayed here as part of a wedding party who booked the lighthouse keeper's residence on AirBnB. Super unique residence with a ton of space in different sleeping options. Easy beach access. Nice small museum open for a few hours on the weekend that's great to visit as well.

A beautiful place to stop, take in the amazing views, and learn a little history on the oldest continuously operating lighthouse in the Chesapeake Bay.

Easy parking, friendly staff, well kept grounds. This could have been an iconic lighthouse for photography…. That ugly black fence takes away the authentic feel of a lighthouse,…. Such a shame.

This is a beautiful lighthouse - nearly 200 years old! Sweeping views of the bay and Calvert Cliffs. Limited access hours of only 1-4 p.m. on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday so plan ahead if you want to visit. There are lots of signs posted around the property with facts and history. The base of the lighthouse is open but you can't climb up in it. No beach access.

Great lighthouse and near a beach where you can find shark teeth.

Private Property!! Cannot Visit!! check hours before arriving. Very disappointed. I drove to and spent the day in Solomons. After hiking in Calvert Cliff State Park, I stopped by this lighthouse to take some pictures. I was greeted by a set of locked gates with signs indicated that it the private property. For some reasons, I didn't see this info online. It looks like you can only walk the grounds and enter during operating hours. Most lighthouse I visited keep the ground open during day light and special hours for tours.

Such a beautiful place. I wish I brought a lunch to eat at the pavilion. The little museum was interesting. The person running it was a really nice guy. I'm pretty sure they aren't open everyday. So might be a good idea to check before coming. I came about 2ish on a Saturday.
