It is a simple side-gabled boarding house built by the Weed Brothers around 1869. It has also been known as Weed Mill Inn. It was distinctive for its interior walls and ceilings being board and batten throughout. The house was originally built for the Weed Brothers, who used it as a boarding house. In 1871, it survived an offshoot of the Peshtigo Fire. In 1972, husband and wife Jerry and Pat Henry bought the building and moved it to its present location. The couple did similar work with other historic structures, creating what is known as 'Historic Vickery Village' or 'The Shoppes at Vickery Village'. The Henry House was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. In 1989, it was listed on the State Register of Historic Places.

The Green Bay Harbor Entrance Light is an offshore lighthouse near Green Bay, Wisconsin. Located 10 miles (16 km) from the mouth of the Fox River, it was erected to signal the entrance to Green Bay. The shipping channel approaching the Fox River in Green Bay was changed a number of times in order to accommodate vessels of increasing draft. The Army Corps of Engineers also modified the channel in the mid 1920s. The Green Bay Harbor Entrance buoy was established in 1927 to mark this point until the Bureau of Lighthouses could obtain funds for a more permanent solution. The acetylene buoy emitted a flash of 0.3 seconds duration every 3 seconds and had a wave-activated bell. The light is one of the few on the Great Lakes still powered by submarine cable. It is issued from a pair of 300 mm Tideland Signal ML300 acrylic optics mounted on the gallery railing. Because the light is too far out to be seen well from shore, the only good view of it is from a boat.
