The Port Washington Light Station stands on the north bluff, looking out over Lake Michigan. Built in 1860, it replaced an earlier light tower from 1849. The structure was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
Today, it operates as a museum run by the Port Washington Historical Society. You live near one of Wisconsin’s most recognized lakefront landmarks.
The surrounding bluffs are lined with sugar maple, oak, ash, and cottonwood trees. These species thrive in Ozaukee County’s mix of lake breezes and clay-heavy soils, but they also come with real seasonal maintenance demands. Learn more.
Our local team serves Port Washington Light Station and nearby communities like Grafton, Cedarburg, Belgium, and Saukville. The bluff-side setting and Lake Michigan weather put real stress on sugar maples, oaks, and ash trees.
