This event unofficially kicks off summer for the residents and visitors of Presque Isle. Come see your friends and neighbors, or make new ones, and celebrate the end of winter! The pancakes are amazing and donations benefit the Grand Lake Association. This event is graciously hosted by the Presque Isle Lodge, a beautiful historic b&b inn long owned and operated by the Spencer family. Don't miss this beloved annual tradition!
2. Opening of the New and Old Presque Isle Lighthouse Parks
Open Daily 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Come visit the enduring symbols of our community - the two historic lighthouses built in 1840 and 1870. These towers, which guided countless ships to safety during their long careers, are now open for climbing. Both lighthouses also have museums and the New Lighthouse has a great gift shop. Be sure to visit these marvelous structures while you're in the area! Afterward, treat yourself to some ice cream or a deli sandwich at the Portage Store or sit down for a nice meal at the Portage Restaurant and Pizza Shop, both located conveniently at the Harbor Marina.
