Great small lighthouse on private hotel property. Don’t expect to drive up without reservations to the restaurant or hotel. We enjoy visiting as many lighthouses as we can do it was our day journey to visit.

Best time to visit here is during the sun set! Go around the mansions throughout the day and once the mansions are closed come over to the lighthouse and relax! The spot is bit walking from the parking and need to cover a little trail but is accessible for all age groups! I recommend to return before it gets dark and specially if you are not carrying a flashlight. Lighthouse itself is not at all impressive, its a small one but the place around and the sun set view makes this location very special.

Beautiful location! Great for photographers of all skill levels and just for general sight seeing. If you want to go down onto the rocks I suggest wearing good shoes, they can be very slippery and steep in places.

This is a pretty cool spot on the Bay. It would have been even cooler if you could go inside. There are a maze of trails to this spot from the parking area nearby for all of the fishermen trying to catch dinner. The views of the Bay and the boat traffic is very cool.

As someone who occasionally likes to mess around with their DSLR (camera), it’s fun to find cool places to take photos. Castle Hill Lighthouse is one such place. A friend and I recently went. The mission, for me, was to try and capture the classic Rhode Island postcard image of castle hill lighthouse. I don’t know if I did, but I still had fun climbing over the rocks to see this little hidden RI gem. If you get the chance, go see it for yourself; it’s a nice area. There are a few “private property” signs around, near the Castle Hill Inn side, but if you google it, you can find guides online that will get you to the lighthouse.

Loved it. Such a lovely view. It’s on a small cliff, very beautiful. Great spot to sit in calm and serene location. You’ll never know how time flies if you’re not in hurry. There are three diff path to reach here. Parking lot has ample of space. Staffs here are very very kind. Appreciate their kindness. Do visit and enjoy.

The lighthouse shares a driveway with Castle Hill Inn, they have a private property sign and security at the entrance- we were not allowed in because the lighthouse is "closed due to covid". You can still get there if you walk through the beach and rocks. Overall Newport is not very tourist/visitor friendly. Lots of "only for Newport residents" signs. But it is definitely worth visiting, incredible architecture and beautiful views.
