Repair Underway at Marblehead Lighthouse

Well, here on the South Shore of Lake Erie, in Marblehead,Ohio, we have the Marblehead Lighthouse. Right now the lighthouse is not very attractive because it is under repair and has been for several months. If all goes well and work crews get some weather breaks, the lighthouse should look handsome again for the summer crowds.

Almost everyday some folks are in this Ohio State Park taking pictures of the lighthouse from all different angles and different times of the day. Some folks even come at night, shine a flashlight on the lighthouse and take that picture.

So right now, no leaves on the trees, wet grass, ugly lighthouse -- well, all in all, does not make for a pretty picture.

If you plan a trip to our little town when the lighthouse looks nice again, stay in one of our cabins or motels, eat at our nice restaurants, and even take a side trip on the local ferry over to a Lake Erie Island, Kelley's Island.
