Citizens for Squirrel Point (CSP) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization formed in 2002 to preserve the lighthouse property for the benefit of the public.

Located on Arrowsic Island, Squirrel Point Light is one of four navigational aids dating back to 1898 along the Kennebec River's 11 mile stretch between the Atlantic Ocean and Bath, Maine. Our mission is to preserve and restore the buildings and grounds, provide public access, and educate the community about this historic landmark. Squirrel Point Light lies at the end of 2/3 mile trail in Arrowsic, Maine, approximately 10 miles from the City of Bath. The footpath through protected forests and wetlands is uneven and rough in places. At times of exceptionally high tides, the foot bridge along the trail may be submerged. There are no restrooms, and the buildings are not open to visit, except special occasions such as the Maine Open Lighthouse Day. The light at Squirrel Point is maintained by the U.S. Coast Guard as an aid to navigation. Buildings on site include the light tower, keeper’s house, boat house, oil house and barn. CSP is a non-profit volunteer organization funded entirely by donations and grants. Please join the effort to restore Squirrel Point Light! We are also raising funds to replace the bridge. Visit www.squirrelpoint.org for detailed directions and to learn more.

The Keeper’s House is getting some much-needed attention this season. It’s wonderful to see this skilled progress, thanks to Lee and Jess and to all who have donated.
