Learned so much history from this place, and would highly recommend for those that are visiting Dover!

I am a fan of renovating old mills, so this library's location didn't disappoint! I went on a Monday morning, around 10, with my 15-month-old daughter. We were the only ones there. I was delighted when we turned the corner to enter the library. It's very nicely decorated! It still needs work in some areas, but it's clear that a lot of thought and work has gone into making this a comfortable and inviting place. The librarian was SO nice. We had a friendly conversation and she was very helpful. I'd like to come back for storytime to get a more well-rounded picture. The only reason for 4 stars at this time...no baby changing station in the bathroom (which was a little icky...)! It's fine...I'm used to changing her on the floor no matter where we are. But sometimes it's awkward with other people around. Thankfully, we were all alone.

My now fiancé took me to the lighthouse to propose. It was the most romantic perfect proposal that…read moreI could ever dream of. He booked a dinner session (~5:00 pm-10:30 pm) for a Sunday in May. He had his friend arrive at 5 to set up the decorations (flowers, candles, signs) and our private hostess Pam let her up. We arrived at 6 pm and once we got upstairs, he handed his phone to Pam to record his proposal. After the proposal, we went outside on the balcony where Pam took sunset pictures of us with my ring. We then decided to order from Modern Oak Grill which was absolutely delicious. Pam was able to time out our meal so each course was ~ 20 min apart. She also had drinks in ice staying cold for us. There was also a stereo system that allowed bluetooth capacity so we were able to pair my phone and I could play a spotify playlist. Overall the location was perfect and I could not have asked for anything better. We will definitely be coming back for future anniversaries! Just something to consider: - There are many stairs and a ladder so maybe steer away from heels or long dresses (thankfully I was prewarned to not wear them haha), and if you are afraid of heights, this might not be the best place. - If you want to go out on the balcony you have to crawl through a short door so be warned - If you are tall watch your head! My fiancé is 6'3 and he hit his head a couple times on the chandelier. - there is no bathroom, we used the restaurant next door but by the time we left the lighthouse around 9:30 pm, the restaurant had closed.

Lights views and…read morefood The Newburyport Rear Range Lighthouse was constructed in 1873 and was roughly 32 feet tall. As implied in it's name it is actually one of two lighthouses that sits here on the Merrick River and it's shorter Front Range partner is about a hundred yards away. The twin light ideas was pretty common at one time but proved complicated to use and was abandoned. This light was renovated in 1901 and it's height increased to 53 feet and it continued to serve until it was decommissioned in 1961. Since lighthouses require a lot of money for maintenance someone had the great idea of renting the top of the light out for dinners. It isn't exactly inexpensive but you can reserve dinner at the top of the lighthouse and have the food delivered from one of the area restaurants. Only about four people can squeeze up there at one time and you have to kind of simmer up a small ladder to get to the top but the views, ambiance and uniqueness can't be beat. I like this lighthouse because it is unique, no other looks quite like it. Plus it has another little light only a short distance away and beautiful views of a lovely town and cool river. And if you are willing to drop a couple of hundred bucks you can even have dinner at the top. Doesn't get much cooler than that.
