Middle Island Light Station

Middle Island Light Station is located in Lake Huron, halfway between Thunder Bay Island and Presque Isle. There are seven buildings on the island, including a light tower, Keepers Quarters, an Oil House, Tool Garage, a Fog Horn building and two brick privies which are being restored by Middle Island Lighthouse Keeper's Association. The conical brick tower stands 77 feet tall. The Lighthouse is white with an orange band in the middle. It's light is 78 feet above low water and can be seen for 17 miles.

In 2003, final work was completed on the renovation of the former U.S. Coast Guard foghorn building, transforming it into a rustic lodge. Now called "Keeper's Lodge", the island lodge allows guests a unique experience. A "Lighthouse Cruise" is included as part of every stay.
