Perched on a small island in Cobbosseecontee Lake, Ladies Delight Light has guided boaters through Maine’s inland waters since 1908. This charming white cylindrical tower is one of the few freshwater lighthouses in the state, making it a unique attraction for lighthouse enthusiasts.
The light remains active today, though the island and tower are not open to public access. Visitors can best view and photograph the lighthouse by boat, with summer mornings offering calm waters and optimal lighting conditions.
While in Winthrop, explore the scenic Cobbosseecontee Lake for kayaking or fishing, visit nearby Augusta’s historic State House, or enjoy the trails at Norcross Point Conservation Area. The fall foliage season provides spectacular backdrop photography opportunities.
