The Eagle River Lighthouse

Aids to Navigation, Lighthousers, Historic Sites, The Eagle River Lighthouse around 1900. Courtesy of Terry Pepper of Roanoke, Indiana. By 1890, virtually the only vessel making its way into the decaying Eagle Harbor was the lighthouse tender on its annual suply trips. In its 1892 annual report, the Lighthouse Board noted that traffic patterns on the lake had changed, and that eastbound vessels were making a turn off Sand hills, some even miles to the west of Eagle River, and approximately midway between the coast lights of Ontonagon and Eagle Harbor. With the treacherous Sawtooth reef located just offshore at this point, the Board recommended to Congress that $20,000 be appropriated to decommission the light at Eagle River, and construct a new coast light at Sand Hills.
