Big Bay Point Lighthouse

Ahhhh, the Big Bay Point Lighthouse . What a dream! I absolutely love visiting this lighthouse, but it’s extra magical when I can stay overnight. I stayed a few years ago for the first time… but was really aching to come back. It’s just so beautiful. It’s one of the few operational lighthouses that offer a bed and breakfast, and such a perk it’s so close to Marquette, only 24 miles northwest in the town of Big Bay, Michigan. It’s perched on top of a tall bluff over a rocky point, with picturesque views. It was built in 1896, and has been beautifully restored by the current owner/lightkeeper, who gave us a nice welcome and introduction to the lighthouse....
