Noah Fargo:

"A very unique hidden treasure with Oswego. I’ve been here multiple times throughout my life and I’ll while it looks small on the outside but can take awhile to tour; especially for someone that is new to maritime history. The tugboat docked outside has an interesting story; being the last U.S. Army vessel that served during D-Day and is still operational today. Highly recommend that you visit this small yet unique maritime museum. It’s not everyday that you see a ship that was present at D-Day (and also shot down an enemy plane)."

"The Oswego Lighthouse Tour is informative and fun. From our cordial Captain Chuck to the informative volunteers inside the lighthouse, it was a very good experience."

"Pulled into the parking lot and saw The Dredge and the tugboat and there was parking there so we stopped walked up inside and saw that you could do a self tour through an app or just self-guided. Then we went over to the tugboat read the information boards there and saw that you could not go on it to view it until summer of next year-June 2024. Then we walked down to the actual Maritime Museum where there was more parking and where we probably should have stopped at first. There was no signage to direct you to the museum first. So after looking at the dredge and the tugboat we now had to pay $10 to go through a small museum that while somewhat informative I feel is a little overpriced especially since there was nobody there that seemed very knowledgeable or willing to provide some extra informationto make the museum more interesting. Gift shop had some decent stuff. It would have definitely been worth the $10 if the price of admission included actually touring on the tugboat. Unfortunately unless you also purchase a separate ticket you have no access to get close enough or even take decent pictures unless you have a professional camera of the lighthouse. Unless you are a true maritime buff this one is a hit or miss."

"Informative museum with kid-friendly exhibits. Seeing the Derrick 8 canal boat with engines and boiler was fascinating. The LT-5 tug boat that participated in the D-Day invasion was very interesting and surprising. Highly recommend a stop at this museum if you are in Oswego."
