The Oak Orchard Lighthouse Museum, located in Kent, NY, is a reconstructed replica of the original lighthouse that stood until 1916. Established through grassroots efforts in 2003, the museum showcases local maritime artifacts and allows visitors to climb to the third floor for stunning views of Lake Ontario.
Since its completion in 2010, the lighthouse has become a popular destination along the Great Lakes Seaway Trail, attracting visitors from around the world. The museum committee continues to seek support for future projects, including the creation of a dedicated museum to preserve the rich maritime history of the region.
