Previously known as Bass River Lighthouse, the tower was built in 1853 atop a large keeper's house and represents one of the first examples of "Cape Cod style" lighthouses. Whit its range of 12 miles and a white light flash every 6 seconds, it has been operating constantly for almost half a century since it was constructed. Now is the venue of a seasonal hotel called At the Lighthouse Inn.

Indian Lands Conservation Area, a 25-acre coastal haven of woodlands and marshes, harbors a unique winter tradition. Each year, the Nobscussett Indian community returns to their ancestral home along the shores of Bass River, where they erect wigwams and reside until spring. The arrival of spring brings a vibrant display of Lady Slipper Orchids to the river's meadows, signaling the end of their winter stay. Explore this natural sanctuary and witness the enduring connection between the Nobscussett people and their ancestral lands.
