Bois Blanc Island Lighthouse Home. Iconic Sunset Views of the Mackinac Bridge!
This is a one of a kind home that is more of an experience than a destination. Located on Bois Blanc Island in the Straits of Mackinac, it features iconic sunset views of the Mackinac Bridge and the Straits Area. Rise early enough and you can witness the moonlight from the southwest shimmering through the darkness across calm waters as the sunrise paints an incredible canvas to the north, greeting you for a new day. Enjoy access to over one thousand feet of private Lake Huron beach frontage, trails, and wilderness.
To experience these panoramic views from this secluded lighthouse home on the western tip of historic Lime Kiln Point ascend the floating spiral staircase that leads you to the lighthouse views. These views reveal the spectacular beauty of creation. Take in a breathtaking view that is so special it is featured on the State of Michigan "Mackinac Bridge License Plate" and you will fully comprehend why this view is so significant to the Great State of Michigan. A Foucault Pendulum is suspended from the base of the lighthouse allowing guests to chart the rotation of the earth on the maritime compass tiled in the main floor below.
Two master bedrooms on the main floor are easily accessible and designed to optimize the views. Four spacious bedrooms on the second level provide ample space and privacy for friends and family. This home was designed specifically to take advantage of its setting. You can enjoy the views and sunsets from the beach, the lighthouse, living room, kitchen, spacious loft, master bedrooms, four upper bedrooms and two decks.
Watch for eagles flying overhead between Bois Blanc Island and Round Island, chart the Great Lakes freighter traffic as it passes under the Mackinac Bridge and watch the ferry traffic from afar as tourists flock to historic Mackinac Island.
Download the mobile "Marine Traffic-Ship Tracking" app and you can learn about the freighters and their destinations as you enjoy your front row seat to both the north and south passages. It is particularly fun to watch freighters vanish behind one edge of Round Island and anticipate their appearance as they emerge from the other end of the Island. At times you can hear them sound their horns and on the other side of Round Island when Mackinac Island water enthusiast get too close for comfort.
It is particularly pleasant to sit at the beach or watch from the lighthouse and witness the checkerboard pattern of the waves as they reach our beachfront which is the "point" of Lime Kiln Point. This is one of few locations in the world you will witness waves approach from two different directions to form this cross hatch pattern. This patten is the result of the location of Round Island and its proximity to the point. It is very relaxing to watch and anticipate the diamond shaped patterns in the waves as they gently break on shore.
Constructed in 2021, the home features all-season construction with complete kitchen and laundry facilities. It comfortably sleeps 12 in its six full sized bedrooms. Three sofas and a loveseat can also serve as sleeping space and are particularly inviting for grandchildren. In addition, there is ample space in the loft and bedrooms for sleeping bags that are distant from foot traffic. With four and a half baths, and several eating areas, the home manages large groups of people effortlessly.
For most people, the trip to Bois Blanc Island begins and ends with a trip on the "Kristen D." The "Kristen D." is a car and passenger ferry, owned and operated by Plaunt Transportation in Cheboygan Michigan. Plaunt Transportation has been serving the transportation needs of Bois Blanc Island since 1932 when it was started by Charles Plaunt and continues to be a family owned and operated company. The Kristen D. is 95' long and 36' long. Departure is from the Plaunt Transportation dock in Cheboygan, MI and the trip to the island is an enjoyable forty-five minute ride. It is extremely important to arrive at least twenty minutes prior to departure to and from the island as it takes time to load vehicles on the boat. Plaunt Transportation crew drive all vehicles onto the boat as it is typically a tight fit. Vehicle owners then comfortably drive off the boat under the guidance of the crew. Be certain to make your ferry reservation well in advance as the boat frequently fills up as far as two weeks in advance. When possible, additional trips are added to the schedule, but it is very unwise to count on that. Tickets for vehicles and passengers are available in the office which has its entrance at the road. Again, it is imperative and to arrive early for loading as the FERRY LEAVES ON SCHEDULE. Information for Plaunt Transportation can be found at:

PLEASE PLAN ON BRINGING ALL FOOD ITEMS WITH YOU. "The Island Diner" is the only location on the island to purchase food stuffs and it HAS LIMITED ITEMS IN STOCK, this cannot be stressed enough. While provisions can be ordered from mainland stores and delivered to the Bois Blanc Township Marina, it is best to plan ahead as last minute items can prove difficult to obtain. Meal planning should be done in advance and you should plan on bringing all food stuffs with you. Basic pantry staples will be stocked at the home. If you have any questions in regards to meal planning, supplies and provisions please feel free to ask.
