Two Harbors and
Gooseberry Falls State Park is about the furthest south we headed from Silver Bay. With its upper, middle, and lower falls along with a catwalk under the highway bridge, it's easy to see the attraction of Gooseberry Falls. We stopped by on a Sunday afternoon and quickly decided to return another day when it wasn't so crowded. We happened to stop by after it had rained the night prior. Wow, what a difference in the water flow.

The Lake County Historical Society in Two Harbors has a discounted admission ticket for three of its museums - the 3M Birthplace Museum, the Depot Museum, and the Lighthouse Museum. You can easily see all three in a couple of hours.

You can then end your day with pie. We tested pies at both
Betty's and the
Rustic Inn. We might need additional testing to determine the best. Locals we met camping prefer Rustic Inn as opposed to Betty's. I don't know....

| Not a bad way to end a day |
Where Are We Going Next?
Hi there...what kind of pie is that?
ReplyDeleteIt was a peach apple rhubarb or something like that. It was not their signature Great Lakes Crunch because they were sold out of those. Still good though.
