About Salmon River Lighthouse & Marina

Experience a one-of-a-kind getaway at the historic Selkirk Lighthouse, built in 1838 where the Salmon River meets Lake Ontario. As one of only two remaining “birdcage” light towers in the United States, this rare and iconic structure offers a truly memorable stay. Overnight guests enjoy exclusive access to climb to the top of the lighthouse for sweeping views—a special privilege not available to the general public.

Your stay will be in the second floor of the lighthouse, which accommodates up to four guests. The main room features two double beds, while a cozy secondary room includes a couch, TV, mini-fridge, and K-Cup coffee maker. You’ll also enjoy a newly renovated full bathroom with a shower.

The space is perfect for a relaxing retreat, with added amenities like central air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a picnic table, fire pit, and grill—ideal for enjoying the peaceful setting after a day by the water.

We look forward to welcoming you and sharing the charm, history, and hidden stories of the beloved Selkirk Light!
