Big Bay Point Lighthouse
Big Bay, MI 49808
This lighthouse was constructed in 1896 and remains in operation. It's also listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It turned into the new bed-and-breakfast in 1986.
In addition to offering a view of Lake Superior, guests may also encounter a red-haired ghost who is said to haunt this place. It is believed to be the spirit of William Prior, the first lighthouse keeper. Prior was devastated by the death of his son that he later disappeared into the woods with a gun, but was then found dead about a year later hanging from a tree a mile away from the lighthouse.

Reviews
Definitely haunted. I was awakened in the middle of the night to loud banging against the wall. I was sleeping in the captain's known bedroom. It is a very sad story of what happened to the captain. There was also a reported death of a small girl who fell and died in the house when it was abandoned.
