The Charlevoix Lighthouse is within walking distance of downtown Charlevoix and the Mushroom…read moreHouses! We were staying at one of the Mushroom Houses, so we were able to stop by and visit the lighthouse area tons of times. It's adjacent to this wonderfully expansive beach and park area as well with playground items and just tons of shoreline to lay out and go rock hunting on! Plenty of space for all the activities! The lighthouse itself is out on the pier and is very stunningly painted fire engine RED! The pier is this rich blue as well, so the contrast is stunning and always makes for great photographs. There will be the occasional fisherperson parked on the pier just past the lighthouse too, but for the most part every time I've come out here it has been pretty empty and I just get the best photos! It's not the biggest nor most iconic lighthouse Michigan has to offer, but I love her a ton!

We were out sightseeing for the day and made a special trip to the Lighthouse. Over the past…read moreseveral years, I have been intrigued by Lighthouses. I try to find one everywhere we go and our great lakes state has plenty of them along the shorelines. I like to get pictures of the lighthouses. I want to make a wall collage of all the ones I've visited around the state from the tip of Copper Harbor off the shore of Lake Superior, all along the east shore of Lake Huron from Mackinaw down to Port Huron and the west shore of Lake Michigan from New Buffalo all the way up to Charlevoix. The Charlevoix Lighthouse is super cute, I love the red! It's not a huge Lighthouse, yet unique in its own way. We enjoyed hanging out at the pier, breathing in the fresh air, and watching a beautiful sunset on the horizon.

We knew the marina was clean, nice people there, well run and great services, not to mention beautiful and very well kept. Once we really started to travel around from state to state and visited many marina's we realized how much nicer this marina is. It should be rated as one of the nicest, updated, great bathroom / shower facilities and other amenities. Keep up the great work. Dino

This marina is amazing! I can't say enough good things about it. The staff is nice and very…read morehelpful. The facilities are immaculate. The showers and changing rooms are perfect and part of the bathroom (which is great if you have little kids, like me). There is a really nice park right next door and 2 great sandy beach areas just to the north and to the south. Take your pick! The water is clean and aquarium-esc. A few kelp beds, but hey... They help keep the water clean. In July it fills up quick, so get their before noon, hopefully you'll get a slip, if not, and you have a smaller boat like mine, you'll be climbing the wall, literally. The docks are kinda high (water is low), but that's the case everywhere these days. Although some locals til us that next year (2013) they were planning to add 14 figure floating docks, so that'll be even better, for the smaller vessels. If that's the case, I'd have to give it 6 stars!

The last time I stopped in here was in 1992. It has been completely changed since then. WOW. It is…read morestill a relatively small and intimate marina (less than 100 slips), but the staff is friendly and the place is immaculate. When I say changed though, I mean they still have the same great service and location, but the set up of the marina has changed in that it no longer has the peninsula with the tree at the end, instead it has been dredged and reconfigured & modernized. very nice. Not only that but it is convenient to everything in this very small (one horse) village. One note though, the marina offers Air2Access Wifi, which is uber expensive, and ungodly SLOW. DON'T PAY FOR IT! You can get FREE high speed Wifi from the Leelanau township public library not even 50 yards up the street (on the right, next to the post office), where the signal is 4 bars from the street or even the park next door. There is also a Tom's Grocery store 100 yards up the hill (on the left). Great little marina! Can't recommend it enough. 5 stars!
