Note that the bathrooms were closed when we were there in March possibly due to COVID health restrictions. 50 ft of stairs takes you on a well maintained trail with a number of picnic benches with a view of Lake Superior.

I've lived in lutsen my entire life, and I had never actually hiked this trail. But this summer my…read morecousin, her two boys (both under 10yrs), and my 6mo old huskador decided too. And it sure wasn't a mistake! -wish I had sooner honestly. I'd consider it a pretty easy/maintained trail, some roots, moderate incline/declines along the way, but then again we only went 1/4 of a mile to the only not-so moderate decline which leads to a pretty "secluded" spot along the river.. my pup sure loved the break we took there, she even took a dip in the water and the boys were able to try and skip rocks, find some agates, and we even seen some water-spiders. (Aka water gliders I believe.) Overall, LOVELY hike and it also has two one stalled bathrooms (1boys/1girls) which are also in good condition, I remember when they built them not too many years ago.

There's parking in a paved lot, as well as street parking. Toilets consist of port-a-potties. No running water is available, so bring water as well as a lot of bug spray if you want to do the hike into the more wooded area. You can walk on the breakwater and that leads to the Grand Marais Lighthouse. You cannot enter the lighthouse. While there are stairs leading up, they quickly stop at a locked panel. Stay awhile to view the waves and enjoy the sounds of nature. It's pretty unique to be out on the water on such a narrow structure. As it was foggy when I went out, I couldn't see that far, but I was rewarded with a fogbow.

This was a fun little hike that we were recommended by an employee at the place we were staying. He…read morehad recommended it because we were looking for a flat and easy hike that would be doable for someone with limited mobility. While it was pretty flat, I don't know if I would've recommended this hike to someone under our circumstances. It's basically a lifted concrete path that's about 3 feet wide with no railing most of the way right over the lake and rocks. For someone with bad balance, this is definitely a risk and my dad wasn't able to make it to the end of the hike because we were too nervous about him falling off the trail. All that said, the views are beautiful and the lighthouse is really cool, though you can't go up into it. The wind was brutal and none of us had enough layers because we didn't realize it would be that intense, but everything was gorgeous so still worth it. It was also interesting reading the billboards about the history of the area, including the tragic shipwreck that resulted in the construction of the levee.

To say they are pet-friendly would be an understatement. On arrival, it was like walking into a kennel - dogs barking from all directions, some off leashes. This went on the enire first day and night. As a dog lover, I was still annoyed, especially when the 430am rounds kicked in. We had the fan running, a noise machine & still got little sleep. The 2nd day was like being in a different campground... far more as expected. Yes, there were still dogs barking once in a while, but it wasn't nonstop and there weren't any roamers. We slept well the rest of our stay with one other downside. The position of the sewer hose connection - it had no threads and was sunken in too far, actually beliw the ground. This prevented us from having a secure connection - meaning we would get odor. We greatly enjoyed the privacy trees, night skies & convenient location. We still feel the pros outweigh the cons, friendly staff & the price is reasonable. We will stay again & will look at getting an adapter to help with the sewer issue... cuz ewww
