OPEN HOUSE CANCELED: Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Open House is canceled. Thank you for your understanding. – The Round Island Lighthouse Preservation Society
Come visit us at the Annual Round Island Lighthouse Open House on the second Saturday of July. Transportation from Mackinac Island is available by private fare.
Round Island Lighthouse is located on Round Island, which is part of the Hiawatha National Forest. For more information, visit the United States Forest Service website.

2016 OPEN HOUSE: The 10th Annual Open House is scheduled for July 9, 2016 from 10AM till 4PM.
ABOUT THE ANNUAL OPEN HOUSE: Since 2007, an annual Open House has been hosted at the lighthouse each summer. This year Round Island Lighthouse Preservation Society and Boy Scout Troop 323 of Freeland, Michigan greeted over 200 people at the 9th Annual Open House. The scouts gave tours of the grounds, the Oil House and Privy, and of the 121 year old lighthouse. From 10AM to 4PM EST on July 11th, 2015, guests explored the historical lighthouse and learned about the history of the light station and the surrounding area.
PLEASE NOTE: In the event of bad weather, or waves that are too dangerous to navigate by our volunteers, we will have to cancel the open house, or close it down temporarily until conditions improve. Sometimes a cancellation comes about abruptly with sudden changes in conditions. We will do our best to convey a cancellation to the Mackinac Island Visitors Center and to the various ferry lines.

Lighthouse…
I daydream about you
a clear sense of direction
when I am adrift
I wait for your eye to catch mine
a thousand glances in the dark

Round Island Light, the sole building on the uninhabited island. Constructed in 1895, this lighthouse sees nearly a million tourists pass by on their way to Mackinac Island every year, and yet the lighthouse itself is off limits to visitors.

Phil, Kirsty, George and Sarah are at Round Island Lighthouse this week! Work to install a new LED lamp is well underway, they’ve even had time to answer the ultimate question: how many engineers does it take to fix a bunk ladder? #islesofscilly #roundislandlighthouse

Its been a gloomy gray day here in the Sault and I wanted to share this bright cheerful piece with you in case its gray where you are today too.
Whenever I board the ferry to Mackinac Island I make sure to sit on the right side of the boat (starboard?) so that I can watch the Round Island Lighthouse as we approach. Its always been a welcoming sign to me, with its bright red tower and an indication that we are almost there!
"Almost There"

Thank you for making our tattoo dreams come true, izadeeg (USA) and ctptattoo (UK).This is such a unique time in our lives. Passing like ships in the night, but always aiming for the safety and comfort of home. 🌊
My lighthouse, Round Island (Pascagoula, MS) is extra special to me. Not only does it represent a beacon of home for Drew as he travels the world, but my great-grandfather, George Fullerton, was its keeper in 1911.
Go give our artists some love! They’re amazing at what they do!
