About the Light:

  This light originally marked the "cut" channel through Long Point. By the beginning of the 1900's, however the point had grown and the cut was filled in by nature and soon the light was no longer needed. Today the lighthouse is a private residence and is not open to the public. It is located on the highway immediately, west of Long Point Provincial Park.
