A seagull flyin in front of Rose Island lighthouse B&B close to Newport on Narragansett Bay in Rhode Island American flag flying
Built in 1870, the Rose Island Light served as an aid to navigation for a century, and was deactivated in 1970 after the Newport Bridge was built. In 1984, a group of citizens started the Newport Lighthouse Foundation to preserve the light. As of 2008, it has been restored to its Victorian appearance. Visitors may pay to stay at the lighthouse for a night or one week as keepers.
