Beautiful Lighthouse! We had to drive down a dirt road for 20 miles to get to this beauty! We drove a Nissan Altima to the lighthouse and it wasn't bad at all. Just be patient and take your time. Also if it has rained in the past day or two I wouldn't make the trip unless you have a four wheel drive vehicle. We drove out on a dry day and it hadn't rained in the last week. So if the conditions are as I just described, you should be fine if your driving a sedan. When we got to this wonderful lighthouse, we were greeted by these two wonderful woman in the gift shop. They told us all about the lighthouse and we're extremely friendly and easy to talk to. So if you want something to do on a sunny day in northern Michigan, go to this wonderful lighthouse. You will love it! One more thing, don't forget to sign their guest book, it helps with funding to keep the light beautiful!

Don't use Google maps for directions here. It will take you places only 4 wheel drive can save you from. Follow the road signs. Quite possibly the most remote lighthouse on the great lakes that you can drive to. Beautiful! Stunning views. Pure U.P. Michigan.
