They've actually cut out access to the engine room, which is really interesting to see as as well as as you can see the restored officers quarters at a variety of different seniority levels. One of the highlights was the exhibit for the Edmund Fitzgerald, I know there is a larger museum up at whitefish point but this was very interesting too It's definitely worth the time if you like a little bit of history and love to hear about the seafarers

The lighthouse, and the surrounding buildings (museum, gift shop, etc), are a lovely monument to all of the lives lost in shipwrecks in Superior. The Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum in particular is really fascinating and worth a visit. There are also lots of great trails to hike and wander through around the complex, and some really wonderful bird watching spots to boot. It's worth a stop no matter what amount of time you're working with. If you have a half hour, wander up and down the beach for a bit. Got more time? You can spend a few hours digging into the history and the artifacts in the buildings and the lighthouse. They also offer overnight accommodations in the crew's quarters (but you'll have to call ahead and book in advance for that). History and nature buffs will love this spot, for sure.

For example, you can stroll around in scenic Father Marquette Park with displays about his life. On the Museum grounds is the site where Marquette's French Jesuit Mission was located, where he lived, and where he was buried. Marquette established the French mission around 1671 as the area became a center of the flourishing fur trade. The old St. Ignace Mission is beautiful. Around the grounds, I saw plenty of displays of the area's Indian heritage, stylized statues of a Medicine Man, Indian Maiden, and several stuffed animal displays alongside plaques of the animal's Indian name. So if you're ever engaged in a bar bet about the Ojibwe name for a deer, you can confidently say "Wawashesh'she". There's also plenty of indoor and outdoor exhibits to grab a glimpse of Ojibwa culture and the lifestyles of the Huron Indians. Walking the Museum's beautiful grounds was relaxing, peaceful, and very educational.
