A bivalve Fresnel lens, probably 3rd order, is mounted in the lantern; this lantern was originally mounted atop the former Dominion Lighthouse Depot in Prescott and was used in training lightkeepers. After the Depot building was demolished in 1986, the lighthouse was built by the local Rotary Club to house the historic lens and as a memorial to a former member. The tower contains an ice cream shop and gift shop.
