Lighthouse summary

Light is a lighthouse on Big located 10 miles out in the middle of Saginaw Bay, Lake Huron just off the coast of Au Gres,  Michigan.  Here you experience the quiet peace of island living and the mystique of staying at the Lightkeepers Home located next to the lighthouse that was built in 1857.

The island was named by the lake mariners for its location, placed in the middle of a dangerous bay "through the charity of God" as a refuge for mariners needing refuge from storms and winds of Lake Huron.

    Very relaxing

    How can we ever thank you enough for your wonderful hospitality while we visited Charity Island. It was a very memorable trip for everyone. The food was delicious and the boat ride to and from the Island was very relaxing and enjoyable. It’s great to have a place to visit that allows you to do that.

    Great Island

    It was a very good cruise. The afternoon was very enjoyable and the history of the Island was very interesting. It appears that your research on all the construction was very good. I do wonder why “wind” Power was not considered for part of the power. I am aware there would be a few negatives since the Island is used only part of the year. Again, had a great time and we will be back another time.
