Arrowsic Lighthouses

Arrowsic has four lighthouses. Possibly we have the highest number of lighthouses per capita of any town or city in the USA. Furthermore, these lighthouses are rare in construction, as well as eye-catching. All three of the Arrowsic lighthouse facilities are in the hands of non-profit groups that see to their maintenance and preservation.

Doubling Point Lighthouse

The Doubling Point Lighthouse lights the curve that leads downriver from Bath to Fiddler’s Reach.

Kennebec River Range Lights

At the other end of Fiddler’s Reach are the Kennebec River Range Lights . Mariners line up these two lights, one behind the other, as they journey upriver toward Bath.

Note: the road to the Doubling Point and Range lights is narrow with no turnaround. RVs are prohibited for that reason.

Squirrel Point Light

Down river, where the Kennebec turns slightly east and runs to meet the ocean, you can find Squirrel Point Light . The Keeper’s House, boathouse, and other outbuildings are preserved on this point, which is accessible by foot only.
