The Sturgeon Bay Canal Light, that old stalwart, isn't your regular lighthouse. Built way back in 1899, this beauty was designed to guide seafaring folk through the canal. But in the groovy 1950s, it got a bit flashy – a snack shack, no less! Those sailors who'd pass by couldn't resist the allure of the hot fish-n-chips. And guess what? The building, now known as 'The Snack Shack Lighthouse', still attracts travelers and locals with the heavenly scent of deep-fried goodness wafting from its rustic wooden exterior. Not like the neighboring Sturgeon Bay Canal North Pierhead Light, which just offers a mundane business proposition, this one entices anyone who happens to pass by, not just salt-weary sailors.
