Description
A black and white closer view of the Point Betsie Lighthouse. At the top, you can see 2 ladies looking out with their camera's. That is actually mom and Aunt. They are taking a photo of me, taking a photo of them. Point Betsie Light is located on the northeast shore of Lake Michigan. It's at the southern entrance to the Manitou Passage just north of Frankfort in Benzie County in Northern Michigan. Construction started in 1854, and completed in 1858. The cylindrical tower is 39 feet tall, but sits on a dune. It is attached to the Lighthouse keepers house, which was upgraded to an attractive gambrel roof design. This was one of the earliest Life Saving Stations. Prior to being automated in 1983, the 'wickies' operated the light for 106 years. This was the last manned lighthouse on Lake Michigan and the last Michigan lighthouse to lose its keeper.
