Learn about the history and lore of Michigan’s Great Lakes beacons in Cheboygan. Tour the Cheboygan Crib in Gordon Turner Park, originally built in Lake Huron’s waters until its collapse forced the lighthouse to be moved inland. The Cheboygan River Front Range Lighthouse guided sailors from Lake Huron into the Cheboygan River beginning in 1880. The restored red-and-white lighthouse opens its tower to the public and offers a gift shop. Farther away, Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse in Mackinaw City has been dubbed the “Castle of the Straits.” The stately, honey-colored brick lighthouse served as an important beacon until the construction of the Mackinac Bridge. Today, the light offers a museum and tours with costumed interpreters.

Forks Boating access is located on the southern end of main street in Cheboygan. It is a DNR facility with modern launch availability. You will launch into the Cheboygan River thus gaining access to Mullet lake and other great areas.
