Type: Square

Height: 44 Feet

Status: Active

Location: Prevost Harbor/Stuart Island

Lens: Lens Lantern / 300mm

Keepers: Ed Durgan

Notes: Construction started  March of 1893, and the station commenced operation later that year on November 30. The station's light consisted of a lens lantern displayed from a post located close to the point. A steam-powered Daboll trumpet served as the fog signal. 
 In 1936 the light was updated to a small concrete tower with a 300 millimeter light and a diaphragm foghorn replaced the Daboll trumpet. The station was automated in 1974, and the keepers' dwelling was subsequently used by researchers from the University of Washington as a base for studies on whale migration. 
The Spokane District of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) currently manages the station. Working with the Coast Guard, the BLM has undertaken a three-phase restoration project. In 2005, work was done on the roofs of the fog signal building, keepers' dwelling, and barn. In addition, several windows were restored using "wavy glass" and then secured behind rock-proof coverings. In phase two, a power station, consisting of solar panels and a propane generator, was built on the hill above the station. The work for phase three has not been fully determined but may include the establishment of a museum and a guest keeper program at the station. The Turn Point Lighthouse Preservation Society has been formed to educate the public about the lighthouse and to aid in its preservation.
