History buffs often enjoy exploring the Point Betsie Lighthouse, which dates back to 1858. Translated from the Native American language used by the Three Bees Tribal Council, the landmark’s name means “Saw Beak Point,” a reference to the sawbill ducks in Lake Michigan.
On-site visitors get a glimpse of yesteryear with highlights such as photos, artifacts, and oral histories along with exhibitions including Illumination featuring a 100-year-old Fresnel lens and one by the Nature Conservancy that provides a look into the fragile dune system of the area.
