Almost at end of road, turn Right on Bay Front Road and follow it until it ends, for the closest view of this lighthouse by land. The lighthouse will be on the bank across Jones Creek ahead and slightly to the Left. This is private property so please respect the rights of the property owners. Also, for additional views, you can return to North Point Road and turn Right on it. Continue on to the two or three crossroads that intersect North Point Road just before you reach the gates of the Fort Howard Veterans facility grounds. Try turning Right on each of them and continuing to their ends to determine your favorite of these farther away views of this lighthouse, which will be straight ahead, directly across Old Road Bay.
