Absolutely great tour, very good docents, and incredible property. But the 1.5 hour (free) tour was just too short. No time to investigate the amazing museum at the end or even visit the gift shop. That seemed odd. Would have loved to have taken photos of the interior, not sure what that’s about but I would recommend this tour to anyone with even the slightest interest in Frank Lloyd Wright, history or architecture. My exterior photos were a hit with all my friends.

Wind Point Lighthouse

Reviewed By NancyLovesRehoboth - Lexington, United States

Last week, we visited the Wind Point Lighthouse, and we were pleasantly surprised! The grounds are so well-kept and clean. We saw beautiful flowers with a great view of Lake Michigan. There is a small beach where you can sit and relax. We saw a boat go by! The lighthouse is so tall and stately. It has been helping navigators since 1880, and is still serving today! This is a great site!
