Jen - Sherwood Point grounds are NOT normally open to the public. It is Coast Guard property and they use it as a place to live. During the Walk, the grounds are open to the public on Saturday and Sunday and one needs a Walk ticket to go on the grounds on those days. This is part of what makes the Door County Lighthouse Walk special - access to lights that are not normally open to the public. They do not want you on the grounds at any other time.

The lights that are open on days other than the lighthouse walk are: Cana, Eagle Bluff and Pottawatomie. These are museums. You can walk the grounds at Baileys Harbor Range Lights. You can get photos off the Coast Guard property of Sturgeon Bay Canal Station and the pier light.
