5.0 Wisconsin Point (21 reviews)
- My go to place
Scenic Walking Areas

I love Wisconsin Point and the lighthouse. It is my go to place to relax and de-stress. There is now graffiti which is sad to see. Be careful it walking out to the lighthouse. Summer is a busy time not only for tourists, but also to see ships coming and going. See more..

5.0 Pudge's (2 reviews)
- Lovely bar with great welcoming people on the East End!
Spent 1-2 hours Bars & Clubs

We were attracted to Pudges as the front door was decorated with beautiful sprays of Fall vegetation and at first I thought it was a floral shop. The interior is clean and has a back bar of oak and mirrors that is attractive and well maintained. The beer selection is good and the people stopping were people who clearly used this as their "go-to" bar as they seemed to know each other. That did not detract from a welcoming atmosphere displayed by the woman who tended bar. She and her husband run this bar. She was engaging and helpful in telling us of places to eat. I don't know if Pudges offers food as we didn't inquire, but if you're looking for a great beer in a great environment, this place is classy. See more..

4.5 Superior Entry Lighthouse (93 reviews)

Spent an amazingly relaxing afternoon along the beach near WPL. The sun was warm, the wind helped keep things cool, and the sound of the crashing waves was just the ticket in providing one of the most relaxing afternoons in a long time. It was s Sunday afternoon with very few people. It was definitely not the crowded areas like around Duluth. It is definitely worth the visit. See more..

Nice little mini golf set up. Simple but still challenging for younger kids. Hours may vary due to weather or if not a lot of people are there.

4.5 Ice Caves (12 reviews)
- Put this on your list of things to do (weather permitting of course!)
Spent More than 3 hours Caverns & Caves

If it gets cold enough to freeze over this area of Lake Superior so that you can walk on the ice and into the Ice Caves, be sure to take the walk. We last went in March of 2014 (this form only allows us to list our visit as one year ago btw) during a particularly cold winter, and although the walk from the parking lot to the caves is about a mile (a guess), it was worth it. Truly a wonder to behold and highly recommended. See more..

4.5 Earth Rider Brewery (10 reviews)
- Exit to Wisconsin on your way to Duluth
Spent 1-2 hours Breweries

My wife, who is not a beer drinker, had enjoyed one of their products on tap at a local restaurant, so we decided to stop in to quench our thirst after a drive north from Mpls-St Paul. Mid afternoon, the taproom was quiet, and attended by two freiendly knowledgable employees. Great that the brewers converted an old neglected dive bar into a very attractive nostalgia trip--but the centerpiece is the beer. Tasted a couple of fruity ales (her type), an excellent IPA and an award winning stout (my types). They also have a smooth and lovely coffee ale that I would have enjoyed at another time. See more..
