BUT my biggest complaint was the attitude of the employees. This was a quiet, off season day during the week. A young girl was sitting on the counter blocking part of the black board menu.

I said to the older woman at the register, who was just as rude as the young girl, "geez sorry I asked her to move." She gave me a dirty look and said something snarky under her breath.

The water is absolutely beautiful, BLUE, yet clear. The Lighthouse is nothing spectacular itself, but it is bit strange to think there is a lighthouse ON a beach-- which sets it apart. Since it is secluded, you can actually hear the sound and sights of the waves, rather than obnoxious music and chatter at every other beach. it only affirms why so many Europeans come to visit MV, and never leave.

If you can get around the bugs and the dust and being stranded for 24 hours in the middle of the ocean, you may enjoy yourself. My primary concern is the lack of safety aboard the lighthouse and the lack of care for same. At 7:30 in the morning, a strange man rolled up next to the lighthouse so close as if he was going to tie. I informed the owner, Kevin, that this happened and his response was, " Oh, probably just a fisherman. I have no control over who comes up to the lighthouse because it's public waters." I am a young female, who was staying completely alone. No locks on the doors or windows, including the bathroom door, and this is in Fall River - one of the most dangerous cities in Massachusetts. Days after my stay, the owner decided to contact me and chew me out for not giving a $50 tip. I have no idea where $50 came into play. I would never tip anyone $50 even if they cleaned my entire bathroom with their tongue. But he kept insisting that I owed him $50 for a tip and also calling it a "fee". I have worked in hospitality and tourism for the last five years, and I have never expected, chased a guest for, or been angry about not receiving a tip. I've also never stipulated the amount I was to be tipped. I found the owner wildly unprofessional, rude, and money hungry. He was not at all concerned about the safety of me or other guests for that matter. I would consider myself to be a pretty good guest. I cleaned up after myself and I even did a little extra cleaning for them, since the lighthouse really needed it. But I was met with nasty text messages days after my departure about a $50 tip that they felt entitled to. I'd also like to mention that I'm a cancer patient in my 20's and this is a grown man who makes at least $600 a night per guest and he still had the nerve to try something like this.

A lovely light on a…read more lonely island Even though Prudence Island light is only 30 feet tall, it has a long and fascinating history. It was first built in 1823, making it the oldest light in Rhode Island and was originally on the south end of Goat Island near Newport but was moved to Prudence in 1852. It is now automated but remains an important aid to navigation on the east passage of Narragansett Bay. One of the elderly women on the island, who just happens to know everything, told me a story about how the light is actually owned by the President of the United States. She was a bit shaky on some of the details but apparently the light was donated by the people of the island to then president Mallard Fillmore. I can't imagine why he would want the lighthouse but an official deed was written and actually given to him. The light and deed is given to each successive president, so President Obama now is the official owner of the lighthouse, although I doubt very much if he is even aware of it. In 1938 the great hurricane absolutely hammered the island and destroyed just about every building including the lighthouse keepers dwelling. The light itself survived but the keeper, his wife and children were all washed away. Somehow the keeper managed to survive but his family was never seen again. The buildings were never rebuilt so now only the light itself remains. The lighthouse is not open to the public but you can go right up to it and time you want. No one really cares want you do on the island as long as you are quiet about it. I have heard that the light is open on occasion when special people visit but I'm still waiting for my invitation. There is also a cool little beach for swimming and a dock for fishing right in front on the lighthouse. The Prudence light is quite small by the standards of most lighthouses but has a long history and is unique in both aesthetics and location. Where else can you take a swim or literally sit and read a book in the shade of a real lighthouse and not see another soul. Who knows. Maybe some day President Obama will even come by and pay a visit. A lovely light on a lonely island

We then took a walk on the beach.

If you look at Boston Harbor, you'll see that there was a big need for such things with all the small islands here including this one, Little Brewster Island. Tours of the lighthouse are available through the National Park Service. I got to see it today courtesy of clear weather and Delta Air Lines flight 5639.

The very first…read more The United States has a lot of lighthouses but the location of the very first one was on Little Brewster Island out in Boston Harbor. There were other markers and very primitive lights perhaps but the first "real" lighthouse was construction on the little island back in 1716. Boston was the largest city in the country at the time and ship traffic was increasing dramatically. The treacherous reefs and rocks made getting in and out of Boston Harbor a nightmare. The exact dimensions of the first lighthouse aren't known but it seemed to do the job and ship wrecks decreased. Unfortunately the old light had a series of unfortunate mishaps and problems, including being set on fire by the Americans to keep the British from using it in and then once again by the British in 1776 to keep the Americans from using it. It was finally completely destroyed. After the war of indepenence was over it was obvious that the growing nation once again needed a lighthouse in Boston Harbor so in 1783 a new one was built. This new one stands 98 feet tall and is still shining. Even though Boston Harbor is the very first lighthouse location because the first light got destroyed, the "new" Boston Harbor light is now the second oldest lighthouse still standing. The oldest is in Sandy Hook, New Jersey. It is possible to take a boat out of of Boston and go out to the island and light and climbing to the top is a fantastic experience. Only 76 steps but there are a couple of ladders to negotiate once the steps end. You can view the second order Fresnel Lens from six inches away but absolutely no touching. Of course great views from all directions can be seen. The island also has the old keeper's house as well as numerous other artifacts and even a cool lighthouse kitty. Not the tallest light or most aesthetically beautiful but for a sheer sense of history the most important.
