Squaw Island Light, Lighthouse in Charlevoix County, United States.

The red brick lighthouse with white trim rises 15 meters high on Ojibwa Island, featuring an octagonal lantern structure at the summit.

The United States Congress allocated 25,000 dollars in 1891 for the construction of this maritime navigation station, completed in September 1892.

The lighthouse served as residence for multiple keeper families until 1928, when the establishment of Lansing Shoals Light Station made it unnecessary.

The lighthouse stands on private property with restricted access, while the surrounding waters measure less than six feet in depth.

The original fourth-order Fresnel lens from this lighthouse now resides at the National Museum of the Great Lakes for public viewing.
