Keepers Quarters Museum

- Keepers lived on-site near the lighthouse to always be available to tend the light at night. This quarters was built in 1873 to house all three keepers. This lighthouse was a bachelor area -- no families -- until after 1900. To accommodate families, this building was divided so the 1st Assistant's family lived on the first floor and the 2nd Assistant's family lived on the second floor. A new quarters was built for the principal keeper's family.
