Originally located on the West pier of the Portage River entrance between 1874 and 1952, this two-story structure was relocated to B-pier on what was then D.B. Jeremy's & Sons Marina, who were contracted to perform the removal. 

In the fall of 2011 Brands' Marina made the decision to donate the lighthouse to the city of Port Clinton. While we're sorry to see it go, we feel it will be of greater benefit to the city if a project was undertaken to fully restore the lighthouse and place it in a more publicly accessible location.

As of Summer 2014, terms of the lease for the city property on the North shore of Waterworks Park are being ironed out between the Lighthouse Conservancy Group, the City and the State of Ohio. The almost completely restored Lighthouse is currently located inside one of Brands' Marina's workshops at Brands' Boatworks awaiting its final transport to its permanent location. Please check our facebook page for current articles and videos on the restoration efforts and please consider making a donation to the Port Clinton Lighthouse Conservancy
