The Ultimate #Lighthouse Tour in Wisconsin and Michigan

The Ultimate #Lighthouse Tour in Wisconsin and Michigan

Lighthouses have been a symbol of safety for navigators and explorers for hundreds of years. Each night, lightkeepers and their families reported lake conditions and guided people back to safety alongside the rocky shores of the Great Lakes.

A photographer’s paradise, Lake Michigan offers beautiful scenery.The transcendent fall colors and welcoming cooler breeze from the lake make the Great Lakes a great tourist location for those that can appreciate the northern charm, art galleries, fantastic restaurants, and museums of the maritime history. The sunrises and sunsets are mesmerizing and provide a romantic backdrop to each unique lighthouse.

Click here to view vacation rentals, events, and a map of lighthouses in Michigan

In October, The Great Lake lighthouse festival highlights different lighthouses along the coast and bring in over a hundred different vendors for the lighthouse enthusiasts all over the world. There is no other lighthouse festival like it. In 2014, the Eagle Bluff was the highlighted lighthouse. Eagle Bluff sits majestically in Peninsula State Park, a beacon of light to those arrive in the rocky Door County area, navigating through the gale of a storm or through the quiet dark nights. This lighthouse has been restored for visitors on tours and is open to the public May-October.

The Grand Traverse Lighthouse is at the end of the Leelanau Peninsula, located inside the Leelanau State Park. It’s one of the oldest lighthouses on the Great Lakes. Once inside the lighthouse, you can view exhibits, shipwrecks, foghorns and other lighthouses within the area. Fun events are throughout the year.

Another favorite lighthouse on Lake Michigan is the St. Joe’s lighthouse. Located in St. Joseph’s, Michigan, this lighthouse is not shy about bragging about its beauty and that’s ok with us because it is surely a sight you can’t miss! This beautiful lighthouse is near Benton Harbor and even highlights a live webcam on its website. This lighthouse is truly a Great Lakes celebrity with tourists walking the rare catwalk, exploring the almost two centuries old lighthouse and what was once home to the Red Cross.

St. Joe Lake Michigan, Benton Harbor

This backdrop is perfect for photography (maybe a wedding?), fishing, cruising and picnicking. To view more about Benton Harbor, click here: Benton Harbor

Tawas Point Lighthouse is also a sight to see. This lighthouse is located on land jutting out (almost considered a peninsula but didn’t quite make the grade) in the Tawas Point State Park, nicknamed the “Cape Cod of the Midwest”. This particular bay is fantastic for fishermen, bird enthusiasts, and sailors. One of the best parts about this lighthouse is the drive getting there. Highway 23, or better known as, the Sunrise Side Coastal Highway. This highway is unique that in much of northern Lake Huron, it is primarily publicly owned, therefore creating a large backdrop not populated by privately owned properties.

Presque Isle Lighthouse is one of the oldest lighthouses and tallest lighthouse that you climb on the Great Lakes. This romantic lighthouse has been in business for over 175 years and hosts many events throughout the anniversary weekend such as wagon rides, campfires, etc.

It has been considered a haunted lighthouse by its previous owners. Don’t worry, this ghost is a very nice gost. To check out the video:

Experience West Michigan at it Finest

No one has ever said this while sitting in downtown Chicago traffic, “I love sitting bumper to bumper, and the person next to me banging really loud music with their window down”.

LakeFerry

Well, especially as a vacationer we want to avoid traffic, right? We could learn a lot about maximizing our potential for a really great vacation while saving time and having fun doing it. Have you thought about using the Lake Express? This really neat ferry is the first high speed ferry to go between Milwaukee, WI and Muskegon, Michigan. It allows 46 cars and 12 motorcycles So, for those of us that vacation in Michigan, let’s take a look about what the Lake Express is all about.

The Lake Express offers two round trips a day during the spring and fall and even adds a third trip during high peak summer season. A one way ride is 2 ½ hours of exquisite views from the deck, comfortable seating, meals, movies in a temperature controlled cabin. There’s still time to ride; the Express operates early May through early November. So stretch out those car cramped legs and let’s begin thinking why the Lake Express is a great add-on to your Michigan vacation!

Whether you live in Wisconsin or near the border of Illinois and want to take the ferry over to Michigan for your vacation, or you could be vacationing in Michigan and want to check out what Milwaukee and surrounding areas has to offer, this ferry could be for you!

The Lake Express lets you avoid tolls, 270 miles of heavy traffic and unexpected construction. It also lets you experience some of the most magnificent sunrises and sunsets over the majestic Lake Michigan. Inside the cabin, light lunches, café drinks, and alcoholic beverages are available as well as on board entertainment. Be sure to take anti-nausea medication, even if you don’t think need it though because Lake Michigan can get almighty sometimes and the waves can be 4-5 feet tall.

What to do after you get to your terminal? Milwaukee has some of the best shopping, breweries, cheese factories, live entertainment and an eclectic downtown for everyone to enjoy! Be sure to check out the Miller Brewing company while you’re there! Just to the north of Muskegon are some cabins in Whitehall, MI. Enjoy events, gastronomy options, lighthouses and more there.

If you’re looking to vacation or a weekend getaway in Michigan, we can list a few great things! The beaches in Michigan right off the Lake would fool you into thinking you are on a southern coast. With many public beaches and state parks, it makes this area of the country truly breathtaking. If kids are on the trip, the words “I’m bored” can barely escape their mouths as there is plenty of water sports, beach activities, festivals, and even Michigan Adventure, an amusement park close by for the thrill seekers! You can also enjoy many of the lighthouses, waterfalls, premier lakefront golfing and quaint shopping.
