Point Betsie Lighthouse Beach — photo spot in 3485 Point Betsie Rd, Frankfort, MI 49635, USA
Point Betsie Lighthouse Beach
Score4.7Classic Great Lakes scenes: a red-roofed lighthouse on dune-backed beach, rocky foregrounds, and vast Lake Michigan horizons. Best at golden hour—sunset often lights the lighthouse and glints off water; winter ice and stormy skies add drama. Small parking lot and short walk over sand/steps; check Benzie Area Historical Society for lighthouse tour hours. Weekdays and shoulder seasons offer fewer visitors and changing weather for dynamic skies.
