The beautiful Gloryland lighthouse and lake were built by DeLayne and Shawne Land. Inside the lantern room is a 400 watt bulb with 350 million candle power. The light is turned on with a switch or by the timer. There is a ordinary house ladder inside to get to the lantern room. Often they have weddings there performed by a minister. Every Labor Day weekend there is the Annual Farmer's Pike Festival on the grounds. Vendors come from all over the USA to sell. New Castle, IN is 3 ½ hours southwest of Toledo, OH and off of Route 38.
The Lighthouse Hunters Experience:
The couple gave us a tour of the grounds and the lighthouse. We also took their picture for our Fellow Hunters page of our website. The whole area is amazing and made so beautifully. We were very impressed.
