Very pretty at sunset. One of the on duty officers informed us that they offer tours once or twice a month but you have to schedule ahead of time. Theres a couple of picnic tables and theres wide open views of the lake. Make sure to drive the speed limit around the neighborhood, the police are very strict on maintaining the safety of all the pedestrians that use the roads.
I live about 15 minutes away from the lighthouse and it’s my favorite place to take my daughter when we want to see the lake or spend some time outside. There’s a beautiful butterfly garden right by the water with benches for visitors to enjoy, which is lovely in the summer. I’ve also seen an herb garden on the west side of the lighthouse facility. It’s also nice to go to a place that has a paved walkway from the parking lot to the lakefront- valuable for people with infants or are disabled. It’s a wonderful place to visit and I am honestly here about once a week.
Still a great place to view Lake Michigan. Sad there is no beach access due to preserving the shore line, but the additional reinforcement may keep the Lighthouse around for many years to come. Also it is a great place to hide painted rocks.
If you like lighthouses this is a beautiful one. Only one setback, no information building just signs on the property. The building with the lighthouse is the office of the caretaker, police dept and village hall.
Absolutely breath taking. The grounds were so well taken care of. This was our last stop on our trip before we came back to Iowa. So worth the extra minutes.
Great local resource/attraction. Very well cared for grounds and informative resources. Hopefully the lake will stop taking shoreline as the beach is gone now.
Lots of free parking and beautiful grounds to enjoy near the lake.When we visited, it happened to be one of the days you can pay to climb the lighthouse. We decided not to, but my wife got a stamp in her lighthouse passport since there were staff there.The foghorn house had a bunch of souvenirs for sale.
It was beautiful. Very cold! That lake breeze was quite gusty
Excellent condition. Great view exterior and interior of lighthouse. Great view north and south on Lake Michigan!
Love this place. Tons of monarchs flying around and caterpillars in the trees. The beach is under construction but we love this gem!
I moved to Arizona years ago and my friend loves Lighthouses. When I came into town I had to stop and take an up close and personal pic
Historic place to stop by to see the old light house.
Beautiful place, my daughter loved it!
Beautiful place with great views of the lake. Cant wait to be back in the spring and summer to enjoy the nice breeze and hopefully get to go inside all of the buildings including the light house!!
Great place for a picnic lunch. Awesome views of the lake. Cool fog horn building
Historic,nice little park with benches and other things to look at.
Very nice relaxing Park you can walk along the seashore they also have a large lighthouse and historic buildings. No charge for parking benches to relax on and just enjoy Lake Michigan
Lovely place to see the lake.
The lighthouse beach is cute and easily accessible for a summertime outing! Its definitely not a swimming beach, but the location is gorgeous and you can easily walk down to the lake to climb big rocks and collect smaller ones.I believe the lighthouse itself does tours (or at least used to?) but you may need to schedule it if youre interested.
Well maintained lighthouse that helped ships navigate around a dangerous Silurian reef. A nice tourist spot if you are into lighthouses. There is also a small beach with some of the best smooth rock picking I have ever seen, people had buckets full of rocks they picked. Careful of the under tow and if you venture on the rocks you will probably fall in.
Beautiful views of Lake Michigan. Explore the grounds.
Wonderful place. A piece of history, well kept and preserved.
Great views, pretty quiet place to watch the world go by.
Beautiful. Hopefully next time i can explore more
Beautiful lighthouse in immaculate condition, with several historic outbuildings remaining on site. Great lake views, excellent picnic spot.
Pretty cool place! Nice little getaway from the normal beach life.
Very clean and beautiful place. My family loved it
Beautiful peaceful place to see and sit on a bench if you like and listen to the waves hitting the rocks. Pretty.
Absolutely beautiful!
Gorgeous, picturesque. Wisconsin or Maine? Clean Restrooms, beautiful flower gardens, public beach, and on one Sunday a month, you can hike to the top of the lighthouse.
I came here after hours, but I just had to stop & take a few pics & walk over to the water to hear the crashing waves. Unfortunately, the camera didnt capture the light beams as well as I had hoped (or even what I could see with the naked eye). So peaceful.
Ive been to many lighthouses and this is definitely top 5. Beautiful view and facilities.
Blast from the past. Lovely lake viewing. Quiet and romantic
Beautiful sight on a really windy day!
Definitely worth a stop if youre in the area. Well maintained lighthouse with good historical markers and nice gardens.
This was a neat scenic outing. I reccomend coming with a camera and a book.
Such a gorgeous view.. Beautiful flower garden.
Gorgeous lighthouse on well-maintained grounds. We were married here and love coming back to visit.
Beautiful lighthouse very serine
Nice clean area, good lake scenaries. Good place to have a break and maybe small meal.
Small but nice place to stop, rest and take in the great views of Lake Michigan and the cool lighthouse
Beautifully kept ground. Easy access to to lake. My wife is in a wheelchair and it was easy to move around the grounds.
Love going here small town treasure. And the view after the Light house is Lake Michigan. My pictures speak for this beautiful place.
Very tranquil. Loved the views. The light house it self was closed.
Beautiful lighthouse and grounds. Lighthouse not open for tours. Only once or twice a month
It’s a beautiful lighthouse and campus
Absolutely stunning. Loved this place. Our first lighthouse and it was magical. The weather was beautiful and the grounds were manicured perfectly. The staff were wonderful too.
Beautiful well kept Lighthouse! The beach is also very nice with a great view of Lake Michigan
One of our favorite spots in all of Wisconsin! Beautiful lighthouse with well kept grounds, park benches, and a serene little beach.
Breathtaking views on Lake Michigan shores. Flower gardens. Picnic area and places to walk. Restrooms and parking in the shade. Lighthouse is actually part of the municipal government buildings and cannot be toured.
A beautiful spot for viewing Lake Michigan. Benches to sit on. Free parking. Nice place for a picnic or a walk.
Came upon here by accident. Great little place with ample parking, public restrooms, a hand and foot wash station, lots of historic points. Great place for photos!
Beautiful lighthouse that you can get up close and take pictures.
It is a good place to take some rest in quiet environment with lovely views.
Beautiful spot.
Beautiful location on the lake with the oldest working lighthouse on the lake
Nice little place to visit on the Northside of Racine. Free parking. Tours are a bit expensive and only available on specific days out of the year. The grounds are beautiful and will maintained.
Such a beautiful place! A must visit if you are in the area!
Spied the light while having lunch at the nearby marina. It was a great day for pictures. Worth stopping by if you’re in the area. They give tours seasonally, that we unfortunately missed.
I love going here! So peaceful and I love the lighthouse!! Its nice just sitting by the lake and relaxing!
Can from texas. Always one of our first stops
Nice breezy gorgeous day....nicely kept up park and bathrooms
This beach is perfect for weekends...the scenery is really nice.
Amazing Place, beautiful lighthouse, even though it was freezing cold but it was beautiful views of the lake and lighthouse.
Beautiful destination for a stroll or mindful break with a picturesque lake view and lovely gardens.
Great area to relax and watch the Waves.....
The lighthouse and surrounding park is very fine and exceptionally clean. But there were trashcans in the parking area.
Neat place to check out.
Lovely views and relaxing small park, great place to go with family and enjoy the scenery
Easy climb up..great view!
Stunning and well kept up!
Just a nice place to visit, quiet hear the lake hit the rocks, nice and peaceful, great place to go to relax and read a book.
Peaceful spot with beautiful view and garden
A few miles off the main road (WI 32) this is a beautiful lighthouse set on a eastern point along Lake Michigan. Decent amount of parking.
Beautiful place to spend an evening .. peaceful and blissful
Quick little stop with clean restrooms and beautiful gardens.
Nice light house along the lake. Very quiet and calm.
Great place to go hang out by the water go for a walk and even have a swim if the weather is right. My daughter and I go down there and skip stones and walk along the shore quite often. Theres a 100 + year old lighthouse there that really adds to the area.
Beautiful light house. Sorry we missed the Sunday summer visit. September being the last Sunday we could have visited. $10/adult.
Beautiful and tranquil park, with a scenic view of the lake.
It really over looks an awesome lake
Very nice and peaceful place
Beautiful lighthouse and nice beach area, clean restrooms.
Great preservation project. Peaceful place to learn, relax, or even work.
Beautiful, Peaceful, wonderful place to enjoy the sunrise. Clean bathrooms available early in the morning.

When we were there it was closed for seasonWe took nice walk around the light house
