The Seul Choix Light is a lighthouse located in the northwest corner of Lake Michigan in Schoolcraft County, Michigan.[3][6] The station was established in 1892 with a temporary light,[7] and this light started service in 1895, and was fully automated in 1972. It is an active aid to navigation.[3] There is now a museum at the light and both the building and the grounds are open for visitors from Memorial Day until the middle of October.[8]
