Small historic lighthouse perched on a rocky bluff above Lake Champlain — ideal for intimate architectural shots, waterscape compositions with foreground rocks/ice, and seasonal colors. Best at sunrise for warm light on the tower and calm water; also dramatic as a silhouette at sunset. Easily reached from Plattsburgh waterfront parking; no public interior access, so plan for exterior compositions. Winter offers ice formations; summer draws walkers, so weekdays or early mornings are quieter.
