A beautiful & historic lighthouse right in North Wildwood !! It also has some super gardens with all types of flowers ! A true gem that should get more recognition from the NEWS outlets instead of all the headaches being caused by kids on the boardwalk .

Another great historic place. Beautiful gardens in the back and it leads to a walking path along the water.

Fascinating self tour of the lighthouse! It was great seeing all of the historical items, and the gardens were just beautiful!

Historical lighthouse, they have artifacts from when it was in operation. The woman who was on duty as a guide was very knowledgeable about the history of it's operation and the different keepers who manned the place. She was also very pleasant. Loved the history behind it, and the property is beautiful.

It took me many years to finally visit. So glad we did. Beautiful views. Beautiful history of the lighthouse and its keepers. Historical memorabilia. List of lofe saving efforts since the 1800's. Beautiful Gardens. Sea walk for walking or jogging along the shore line. Peaceful.

I’ve visited this lighthouse several times over the years and it’s such a beautiful hidden gem. The gardens are lovely and so well-maintained—it’d be an incredible place to take wedding photos!

The lighthouse is unique, and the gardens around the lighthouse are beautiful from May to September. You can walk through the gardens to walk along the sea wall to see the inlet and the ocean. The lighthouse was not open on a weekday in May. You might want to call ahead.
