Little Sable Point Lighthouse, Michigan, USA


The Little Sable Point Light is a lighthouse located south of Pentwater in the lower peninsula of the state of Michigan. It is in the southwest corner of Golden Township, just south of Silver Lake State Park. The lighthouse was designed by Col. Orlando M. Poe. Activated in 1874, the Little Sable Point Lighthouse originally consisted of a 107-foot tower attached to a brick dwelling. Sadly, the brick dwelling was razed in 1955, after the station was automated. In 1977, the paint was sandblasted from the tower, exposing the brick's natural color and eliminating the need for regular whitewashing. A third-order Fresnel lens remains in the tower.
