Lake Superior Helicopters in Superior Wisconsin offers scenic helicopter tours of Lake Superior, Duluth, and the surrounding area. Superior is located close to our Lake Superior bed and breakfast, on the other side of Superior and Saint Louis Bays.
Soar over Lake Superior.
The Aerial Lift Bridge is a remarkable feat of engineering. It has been known to go up and down dozens of times a day to allow shipping traffic through, and still it works. It is also beautiful. During the summer, crowds form to watch the ships line up and the bridge rise. There is something strangely uplifting about witnessing this event – as the bridge slowly climbs upward so do our spirits. We find ourselves awed by human creativity and ingenuity. We feel inspired.
The Aerial Lift Bridge is located in the Duluth neighborhoods of Canal Park and Park Point, as is our Lake Superior bed and breakfast. Guests may watch the shipping traffic from the inn, and in some cases from their rooms. It’s a short stroll to down the beach to watch the ships glide through the Canal and under the bridge – their enormity can be downright astonishing.

Our Duluth Minnesota bed and breakfast benefits from a fantastic location (if we do say so ourselves). Actually, the location is what first attracted us to this home, so many years ago. We loved that seven miles of sandy beach was steps away, and that we could walk to all the amenities of Canal Park. I guess that’s why we’re still here. (more…)
The Lighthouse is an icon of the Great Lakes. For more than a century, sailors have depended on them to guide them through darkness, fog and storms. Their light has prevented more than one shipwreck and saved more than one life.
Duluth Lighthouse
We are fortunate to have two lighthouses quite close to our bed and breakfast Duluth. The North Breakwater Lighthouse and the South Breakwater Lighthouse were used to mark the entrance to the canal and the Lift Bridge. Only one is still operational, but they both remain significant Duluth landmarks. (more…)
