Lighthouse Barn

Explore the haunting world of shipwrecks with the Straits of Mackinac shipwreck audiovisual program at Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse. Many vessels have sunk in the straits over the years due to collision, fog, ice and mariner error. This video looks at a number of the wrecks and includes underwater footage, interviews with survivors of the Cedarville, and historic images to tell the stories of these ill-fated last voyages and the men who lost their lives while on them.

The lighthouse barn as recently been restored. Bench seating is available in the barn.

The lighthouse barn, shown behind the flowers, was restored in 2008-2009.
