SCHEDULING SPECIAL EVENTS
Whether officially sanctioned or not, such personal events as weddings, memorial
services and baptisms have taken place at the Point Betsie site. Now that the area
immediately surrounding the buildings is in the hands of Benzie County and designated
for (limited) public usage, we have had requests for private ceremonies nearer to
the lighthouse itself. We stress that facilities are practically non-existent, to
the point that there is no running water and little electricity, but if a down-to-earth,
very small and informal event is what you are seeking, we may be able to help you.
To schedule an Event or Group Tours, please contact Amy Ferris at 231-352-4915 or
email her.
