There is something about staying in a lighthouse that feels so adventurous and romantic. A new hotel in Maine set in a restored lighthouse that dates back to 1836 also adds luxe to the mix with sumptuously designed rooms.  The Inn at Cuckhold’s Lighthouse is set on a teeny windswept barrier island, ½ mile from bustling Boothbay Harbor Maine. As a guest, you arrive to the island on a restored Navy wheelboat after a 15 minute ride to the Inn. Stay in one of the two sumptuously designed suites, with breathtaking ocean views, or book the entire island for yourself.  Open from May until October. 

Tracy Davis, principal of Urban Dwellings did the gorgeous interior design.
