👀 You’ve probably seen them a hundred times… but did you know there were THREE?

🙌 But here’s where it gets even more interesting…

💡 The Duluth North Pier Light was first lit in 1910, and its original Fresnel lens traveled all the way from Paris, France! 🇫🇷 More than a century later, the lighthouse is still an active aid to navigation along the Duluth Ship Canal.

And the other two? 👀 The South Breakwater Inner and Outer Lights work together as a range, helping vessels line up as they make their way toward the canal. 🚢⚓

Suddenly that walk through Canal Park feels a little different, doesn’t it? 😉

And that’s one of our favorite things about staying at Inn on Lake Superior. 💙 You’re right in the middle of it all. Step outside and explore the ship canal, watch vessels come and go, or book a lakeview balcony room and take in those incredible Lake Superior and harbor views right from your room.

🔎 Your challenge for your next stay: see if you can spot all THREE!

🍫 Important fall question: How toasted are you making your marshmallow — golden brown or completely charred? 🔥👇

Cool Lake Superior evenings + a warm fire + a perfectly gooey s’more = one of our favorite ways to fall in love with Duluth. 🍂

At Inn on Lake Superior, complimentary nightly S’mores by the Lake make those crisp fall nights in Canal Park just a little sweeter. Spend the day chasing fall colors, exploring the North Shore, or wandering Canal Park, then come back, grab a marshmallow, and cozy up by the fire.

🔥 No judgment here — even if your marshmallow is basically on fire.

Who’s ready for s’mores season? 🍁

Okay, fall lovers… who picked B?! 🙋‍♀️

Last week we asked which tree is known for bringing those brilliant red, orange & yellow colors to Duluth—and the answer is Sugar Maple!

But here’s what makes them so fun to spot: one sugar maple can put on an entire fall color show. Depending on conditions, its leaves can turn shades of yellow, orange, red—or a mix of all three. 🍂

So now we have a MUCH more important question…

❤️ Team Red

🧡 Team Orange

💛 Team Yellow

👇 Pick your fall color in the comments! (And yes, “all of them” is totally acceptable. 😉)

There’s just something about fall in Duluth—crisp Lake Superior air, changing leaves, a walk through Canal Park, and coming back to Inn on Lake Superior at the end of the day. 💙🍁
