Loneliest Place On Earth Is Located In Michigan The loneliest place on Earth happens to be located in Michigan, well just off the coast of Michigan. Lake Superior is a very cold lake in the summer but in the winter it is deathly cold and happens to be the home of the Stannard Rock Lighthouse. The Stannard Rock Lighthouse was originally built in 1883. There is a massive underwater reef where the lighthouse is located on top of that would be very dangerous for boats to pass if it were not for the lighthouse. Its basically built on an underwater mountain.
