Charity Island Lighthouse Dinner and Wine

Couples searching for an intimate dinner together—that also includes a historical experience as well as scenic Great Lakes views—should head to Tawas City, found about 25 minutes south of Oscoda. The “1857 Island Lighthouse Dining & Wine Tasting Cruise” to Charity Island in Saginaw Bay departs from Browns Landing in Tawas City as well as Caseville Municipal Harbor. The cruise offers an immersion in Great Lakes maritime history, dinner at the lightkeeper’s house with a magnificent view of Lake Huron, and a relaxing return trip timed to catch the sunset. Featured entrees include Great Lakes yellow perch, and tenderloin steak tips. Summer scheduling is open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday up through the second Saturday in October.
