Cana Island Lighthouse

I have heard that Door County has more lighthouses than any other county in the US. This is the one of the most well known, I believe.

3/5 - Okay

Causway was closed to the island due to rough water conditions.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveler

We couldn't get to the lighthouse because the lake is 3-4 feet above normal.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

Due to the high water level currently in Lake Michigan you can not walk to the lighthouse. Instead a tractor pulling a wagon is used to transport people to the island. Make sure to arrive in time to allow for that as it shuts down at 4:30 pm.

2/5 - Disappointing

Closed due to weather

4/5 - Good

It was great to be able to visit the island. We unfortunately were not able to climb the lighthouse due to flooding. However, they did not charge us for exploring the island because of this. I would recommend checking ahead of time to make sure you would be able to get to the island before making the trip. Otherwise, it is definitely worth going.

3/5 - Okay
