Prospect Harbor Point Light, Maritime navigation aid in Gouldsboro, United States.
The wooden lighthouse stands 11.5 meters tall on Prospect Harbor Point, featuring a lantern house with a polygonal roof and shingle cladding.
Established in 1850 to guide vessels through Prospect Harbor, the lighthouse remained inactive between 1859 and 1870 due to harbor utilization changes.
The structure reflects Maine's maritime heritage through its architectural design, combining functional features with traditional New England building methods.
Visitors can observe the lighthouse from designated viewing points along nearby roads, considering its location within restricted Navy property.
The lighthouse keeper's house transformed into Gull Cottage now provides overnight accommodations exclusively for military families.
