Worth a stop along one’s north shore drive. Interesting stories from those who lived there over the years and some beautiful views of the lake. Cost of admission was reasonable and easily purchased online.

First time visiting my wife and I. This place is amazing. Fortunately, the weather was perfect for us. We went through the lighthouse keeper's quarters. It was great getting to see the history of the location. We walked down to the boathouse and saw how supplies were brought to the location. Overall, we both had a wonderful experience and would recommend a visit if possible.

The views are amazing, but the information included in the buildings are worth the stop. I would have stayed longer and read every single thing, but unfortunately my friend was in a bit of a hurry. I loved the Lens in the building, watched the movie and loved exploring the lighthouse. I will go back to read MORE.

I did not go to Split Rock Lighthouse State Park. I stopped at a viewpoint south of it, where you can see it from a distance. It's a small unmarked pullout on the lake side of the road, just south of the park. There is a nice view of it from there. I have been to the park in the past, so all I wanted to do was see it. This place suffices for that.

It is the lighthouse that really makes the state park something more than a cliff on the lake. While it is not the most significant of structures, it is a beautiful setting on one of the most dramatic cliffs along Minnesota's North Shore. In addition to the lighthouse, the state park has a great museum about lighthouses and their importance in the early shipping days of the lake. I will confess that I was pressed for time, and I have seen many lighthouses growing up on the Gulf Coast, so I did not purchase the ticket to allow me to go in the lighthouse. Still the best views of the lighthouse can be seen with the purchase of grounds ticket. If you really like lighthouses, I suggest you purchase the ticket that allows you to enter and climb the tower. The best views of the lighthouse are from a trail to the west which leads down to the shore. Along this walk of stairs, there are many viewing platforms from which you get the iconic view of the lighthouse.

What an excellent spot with a lot of history. The water was blisteringly cold, but I felt immersed in the story of Lake Superior. It's a must if you haven't experienced the force that is Lake Superior. It's an easy walk from the main Lighthouse and Museum to the waters below, providing a great view of the lighthouse on the cliff.

First time going down to Pebble Beach (State Park Permit needed). Beautiful scenery even on MN February winter morning. The Two Harbors trail was too icy so we did not take that path, next visit.

Split Rock Lighthouse The most dangerous piece of water in the world A November gale that wrecked nearly 30 ships in 1905 prompted this rugged landmark's construction. When the U.S. Lighthouse Service completed Split Rock Light Station in 1910, it soon became one of Minnesota's best known destinations. Nestled in a Minnesota State Park, Split Rock Lighthouse is one of the most photographed and visited spots in the state, with a drama-filled history and breathtaking Lake Superior views. If you haven't visited lately, now is the time to pay homage to a true North Shore icon.

Split Rock Lighthouse is one of those iconic “must see” destinations if you’re in the Duluth area. Majestically perched high over Lake Superior, this beautiful lighthouse offers some incredible photo ops. You’ll definitely want to go up inside the lighthouse, but absolutely be sure to take the hiking trail down to the lake shore for the best photos. The hike down and back could be challenging for some people, but if you’re able to make the hike, it’s so incredibly worth it. This is definitely one of the most beautiful lighthouses we’ve personally visited. Very highly recommended! -The PowerTrippers

I’m so glad we made the stop! Not only was the view great, the history was neat and staff were great! We got to walk up in the lighthouse, and through one of the houses that the main light keeper’s home as well. Worth the trip!
