Mission Point Lighthouse

Situated on the northern tip of the Old Mission Peninsula, jutting into the blue waters of Lake Michigan, Mission Point Lighthouse stands as a symbol of the nautical heritage and natural beauty of Northern Michigan.

Constructed in 1870, the lighthouse offers sweeping views of the sparkling lake and the rolling hills of the peninsula. The structure is a classic example of 19th-century architecture, with its distinctive white keeper’s dwelling attached square tower adding an appealing contrast to the lush, tree-lined landscape that surrounds it.

Visitors to Mission Point Lighthouse can explore the meticulously maintained grounds, which include a small beach, hiking trails, and the original keeper’s quarters, all while taking in the breathtaking vistas of Lake Michigan and the rugged, picturesque coastline of Northern Michigan.
