Love this area! So beautiful. Beaches and lighthouse were worth the visit. $10 to park all day. The consession stand had very good ice cream!Full review by kellyhQ6722BW

Parking was a mess. But it was worth the walk. Lots of places along the inlet to set. But nothing near the light house. Wish we could have went inside .Full review by Voyager58203480877

The light house walkway juts out from the south beach side, in Lake Michigan. The TA pin is too far inland. You can easily walk out to the lighthouse from parking areas on the south beach side. It is not handicapped assessable though.
Q:
any recommendation for pace to stay close to the light house?
A:
Look at the Hotels in South Haven. They run from $67.00 per night up as far as you want to go. No hotel in South Haven proper is far from anything one would like to do or see. …

Look at the Hotels in South Haven. They run from $67.00 per night up as far as you want to go. No hotel in South Haven proper is far from anything one would like to do or see. Park at the South Beach parking lot for a nominal fee, honesty system.
Q:
where can you park in order to walk out to the lighthouse? is it free?
A:
I am not sure if and when the large parking lot by south beach and lighthouse pier is free. We like to park in the free lot up in town and walk down to the pier.
Q:
Can you actually go into the lighthouse or just see it from the outside?
A:
I am not aware that you can go in. There is a door but it is locked. I would assume no general public entrance. It is a VERY small lighthouse so there would not be a lot to see anyway.
