It was relocated to the Burnett Heads Lighthouse Holiday Park.

It is one of only two lighthouse surviving to be constructed of timber frame clad with weatherboards, the other being the original Cleveland Point Light.

In 1932 the light was converted to acetylene gas (carbide lamp), automated and demanned.

It was then relocated about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) inland into Burnett River and restored.

The Burnett Heads Lighthouse Holiday Park is open, but the tower is closed to the public.
