We stayed at this beautiful spot for one night last week and had a delightful time. There are three rooms, each with a view of Lake Superior, although it would appear that two of the rooms (on the back of the house) face one of the harbors while the Keeper's Room, in which we stayed, looks directly at the heart of the lake. A third accommodation is the Skiff House, detached from the main lighthouse. We were greeted with freshly-baked cookies, and there was a microwave & various mixes (cider, tea, etc) for guest use. Rooms had terry robes & slippers. Furnishings are lovely antiques, and guests are made to feel at home, as well as encouraged to serve as "assistant lighthouse keepers" by raising &/or lowering the flag, closing the portholes in the tower, feeding the deer & birds, logging the ships in & out of port, etc.

The sun is up early in the summer on the North Shore (about 5:30 a.m.) so I chose to go out with my cup of coffee on the shore-line rocks and watch at 1000 foot freighter pull into port. Then in for a luscious breakfast made by host, and local writer, Kate.

Log books & journals around the house include stories of previous guests, some of whom write about ghosts which may (or may not!) inhabit the property.

Great stay!
