Mission Point Lighthouse has been a Traverse City and
Old Mission Peninsula icon for decades. Located at the end
of a picturesque drive along M-37 through cherry orchards
and vineyards, Mission Point Lighthouse stands as a classic piece of Michigan history.
Lighthouse Park guests are invited to enjoy self-guided historical tours through the lighthouse (climb all the way up to the tower!), to visit our quaint gift shop, to peek into the historic Hessler Log Cabin, to explore the miles of unspoiled trails that run through and around the park (many of which are just as historic as the lighthouse itself), to picnic, to photograph, to watch for birds and other wildlife, to stroll the beach, to gaze out at the sunset, and to simply relax. We hope to see you there!
