Maine's oldest lighthouse - and one of the most picturesque and most frequently photographed in the U.S. - has been in operation since 1791. Although it is closed to the public, you can stop by the adjacent museum, enjoy the grounds which include a beach, lawns and picnic areas and view boats entering and leaving the harbor.

Amazing experience on a gorgeous day! We also spent the couple of bucks to see the museum which had some great exhibits on the history of the light house - Even my teenager had a great time and he hates museums!!

This a great place. You can view ocean, marvel lighthouse, take trails (some of them are shady), enjoy flowers in Children's Garden, and see ruins of the mansion.

This is an amazing state park. As I was paying my $7 out of state fee, the young guy at the gate almost talked me out of coming in. “No place to swim and no lighthouse or lighthouse view”. He failed to mention the sweeping views of the Atlantic unlike any other ive seen. The views are absolutely the most amazing. Bring a picnic lunch as there are many amazing places to sit and eat - there are even bbqs available!! Wear sturdy walking shoes so you can get down on the rocks, a camera to share pics with your friends, and lotsa time to just wander, sit, reflect and enjoy!

The actual mansion is fenced so that you can not enter but you can see that it was quite elegant for the time period. A plaques details the history.

Cape Elizabeth Lighthouse and the nearby walking trails are a beautiful area to explore or just take a walk for an hour or two during the day. People can access the rocks along the coast to take pictures and enjoy the scenery. There was a food truck stationed there, too, with lobster rolls and other lunch options.
