It is a nice place to take a walk or bike. I loved the beach. I felt like I was near an ocean. I will definitely come back here again ️

Pretty Lighthouse. Very nice drive through the state park even for this time of year. Be beautiful in the summer and fall.

This is nice place near the beach. The Disappointing thing currently it is closed. Not sure, exact reason for it.

We greatly enjoyed seeing the Lighthouse and learning some of the history behind it. The tour information was very interesting. The staff and volunteers are all very friendly and helpful.Beautiful view from the top!

The beautiful park and atmosphere of true nature. You can bike, drive, paddle, just walk and enjoy yourself. Great points of interest as well.

The lighthouse was opened in 1873 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.

Beautiful views all around and nice beach area with easy access. Also unisex bathrooms on site.

Awesome history of this place! Must see and take tour for a step back into our history books!

A fascinating piece of functioning history! The gift shop has a good selection of relevant items that you actually want to buy, which is refreshing nowadays. The tour guides are knowledgable and enthusiastic. The lighthouse tour includes a climb up a 78-step circular staircase, so it is not for the unfit or those scared of tight places and/or heights. But, for those that can enjoy the trip to the top, I highly recommend it! It is a view that you wont soon forget!

Lighthouse closed this time of year, but it was still impressive to view, even on a dreary rainy day. It has gone through many improvements over the years and attracts a lot of attention. But dont miss out on the sidewalk trail on the other side of the road. The fall leaf colors were peaking while I was there and I was literally surrounded by natural beauty.

Beautiful Scenery, Sadly I couldnt go inside, but its still cool to look at from the outside

Explore the history of this lighthouse, take a tour, walk the stairs up to the top of the tower, see the extraordinary view and make great memories!

To go inside of a lighthouse you have to pay $3 and to go to the top of a tower its $6.The view of the lake and the beach itself are beautiful behind the lighthouse. One of the best ones on the Isle. They also got a tiny souvenirs store, where you can find some handmade products and t-shirt . The prices are pretty high though. I would go back to the beach hear. Its a crowded area, but you have many options to choose from. Explore your surroundings!

This cute light house is a feast! They have tour every 20mins, dont miss it. Must see.

Such a cute place! We visited in the beginning of May so we were unable to tour the inside of the lighthouse, but it was stunning nonetheless! Its a cute place to walk around on a nice day, maybe walk through the sand a little. If you skip down the beach a little, there is a tiny stick house on the beach! Definitely worth a visit. We were one of the only few around the lighthouse and beach. It was still a nice breezy, sunny day even though we werent touring or swimming!

Beautiful lighthouse, and the beach is gorgeous!

Just a remarkable place to go with the family. If your thinking about going. Take my advice and go. You wont be disappointed at all...

This place was so very nice after being on the road for several days!! Lots of nice beaches right off the road and a really cool lighthouse at the end of the park. Restaurants as you go into the park and some entertainment also. Love this place and will make an effort to return, solely to visit here, instead of a drop by.

This was a very nice lighthouse. My wife and I went walking on the beach behind it and found some beach glass. There are driftwood structures on the beach behind the lighthouse as well as a lonesome tree growing on the breakwall.

I have been coming here since I was a wee little one. This year marked it as an extra special place in my heart when my boyfriend proposed to me in the beach. It’s such a beautiful and relaxing beach with many things to see and do.

This lighthouse is very well kept in the exterior. I didnt go inside because I have my dogs with me. It has a gift shop and restrooms in a small building next door. Parking is along the side of the road

A must stop when in Erie! Friendly staff, awesome, historical lighthouse and great views of Lake Erie! Thanks

Cute island with a ton of things to do. In the summer hours youre able to visit inside the lighthouses. There are bicycle, boat, and boat house rentals. Plenty of hiking trails and a ton of sight seeing that is worth the while. Clean and quiet with helpful staff roaming around that is more than helpful!

This lighthouse and surrounding area are beautiful! I was able to walk around the lighthouse, drive around the park, and skip rocks on the water. It was peaceful and not crowded when I visited on a Sunday in December. While there’s not a ton to do at this site, it is still worth the trip for a picturesque drive and scenic stop.

Its so beautiful here. Love it!

Clean, friendly, beautiful, natural. Great for kids, not built up.

This lighthouse on Presque Isle was so charming but closed at the time of our visit so we viewed it from afar. We love the style of this one as others are typically cylindrical. Maintained nicely it seems.

Cool place. Lighthouse closed for covid.

Beautiful light station built in 1872. Continues to be used as a navigation aid for the lake Erie shipping industry. Now owned by a conservation and restoration group, tours are offered daily. Well worth the visit!

Great place to learn about the lighthouse and some of Eries history - very welcoming, questions encouraged. Warning - the stairs are not for the faint of heart. Very narrow and steep, at the top it is basically a ladder. But great view once you get up there! Small fee for tour.

Great tour of the lighthouse... you even get go to the top! Tour guides and all of the volunteers were very nice and knowledgeable.

The lighthouse is closed, but the beauty is here for all to enjoy!

Cannot beat the view from the top of the lighthouse! We had friendly and knowledge guides and there is a nice little gift shop. Check ahead to make sure tours are open, they run a schedule that varies.

Visit now while the lighthouse is open for tourists. A great part of Eries history.

Beautiful, clean and quaint. Deep in history. First Lighthouse keepers daughter was the first baby born on Presque Isle

Beautiful place to visit. Many picnicking options.

See it before it gets washed away. The monument could use a little TLC.

Beautiful old lighthouse. Been around since 1872. Well kept historic building. Great view of Lake Erie

This place was worth the stop. We had to wait about 20 minutes until it was our turn for the tour, which gave us enough time to walk out to the beach and explore the downstairs portion of the lighthouse. The map of shipwrecked boats was really neat to see and the gentleman who was working that day was very knowledgeable.

We finally had a chance to visit and climb the lighthouse this year (last time it was closed). The house tour was 15 mins, and the lighthouse tour was 15 mins. Tickets were $6 per adult, which is okay since it goes toward maintaining and updating the lighthouse. The view at the top of the lighthouse is beautiful!

A must see if in the area. Lovely stuff, cute gift shop (we love the ornament we picked out!) and gorgeous photos.

Beautiful Lighthouse and view of Lake. Nice beach. No swimming though.

Nice PA historic location. Worth a visit.

Beautiful area in the fall, heck, all year for that matter!

Really nice place. Too bad its closed right now

Really neat lighthouse! If youre in the area, Id recommend stopping by to get a look. You can climb up as well, but of course completely optional. The pictures here were taken from the top. It was so cool to look out over the lake like this.

Wonderful experience, the tour guides gave a lot of information about the daily workings of the light house and its former keepers.

Beautiful feast for your senses.

A beautiful place to spend the day outdoors!

Gorgeous!! Very peaceful and lighthouse tour is very educational. Must visit this spot.

Great place to stop by, has beach, information Office and you can climb up of the light house. Drones and smoking prohibited here.

Was closed when I went but very beautiful

Inexpensive tour. Beautiful views.

Pretty lighthouse but closed due to covid

One of my favorites places in Erie, PA!

Well worth the 78 step climb to top of tower!

If you never had a chance to climb to the top of the lighthouse, you owe it to yourself to go the view is great. And to just hear the history about the lighthouse itself.

Awesome lighthouse. Cute little gift shop adjacent as well. Well done Presque Isle State Park.

Really lovely place with a lot of cool history.

Its Absolutely beautiful. It really got my Wife in the mood. Im pretty sure its the long shape of the lighthouse that gets her going. We barely made it to the restroom before she tore my close off... Great place to visit..

Fun! I survived climbing to the top. Kevin got some amazing pics!!

For us in the Buffalo region this is an easy 2 hour drive. The tour of the lighthouse was great, but also stay for the state park and the beaches. 78 steps to the top and you get a wonderful view from the lighthouse.

What is there to say about this place? To be perfectly honest, we have been up there 3 times within the past 2 years. Not only is it beautiful and picturesque, but it has a decent beach right there that isnt always packed like some of the others. But hobestly it is a nice place to have a little getaway with you and your significant other or head up there with the family for a nice little day of it, you wont be disappointed.

Go to Presque Isle at least once a year. Wonderful place to visit. The lighthouse is undergoing some amazing renovations and improvements. Definitely worth checking out. Gift shop is a little pricey though.

Beautiful scenic view. Knowledgeable staff. Clean facilities. Nice gift shop.

Beautiful views, enjoyed hiking near by, while waiting for the sun to set!!! May 2019

We stopped by here for a fun detour on a road trip and we were not disappointed! The drive there was a bit lengthy. We found out that they offer tours where you can climb to the top. My kids are too young to enjoy that now but older kids definitely could love that. The beach here is also great. It feels so private. The gift shop was cute! Definitely a great stop on our trip.

Its was very fun, theres AND awesome beach nearby

Loved walking around. Beautiful grounds.

Very calm place. Nature calls you. You need to be there by 5pm as it closes at 5.

Really cool light house. I did not know they gave tours and unfortunately I got there too late to get in on a tour. I hope to get up there again soon and take the tour.

Very beautiful place. Lots of fun and sights for the family.

Very enjoyable time hearing of times past. What a job, tending a lighthouse. Not a job listing on indeed today.

A great experience. Id recommend it to anyone interested in local history.

The Lighthouse tour was interesting, 70+ steps to the top. Seems a little bit overpriced ($6/adult) as for museum, but not for group of volunteers who keep the history for us.The staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Beautiful, clean and peaceful place, scenic view.

Beautiful lighthouse and beach.

Great isle with a rich history!

Closed but still nice.

It’s an old light house on Presque Isle. It’s kinda neat. It has a display during business hours. I would give it more but unfortunately it was closed when we went to see it. Bummed.

Beautifully restored. Loved the tour of the lighthouse.

Beautiful historic place. They continue remodeling it, year after year. Its looking better and better!

If you want a quick getaway, this is where you go.

Breath taking scenic while cycling 14 miles. Will visit again.

Amazing! Well worth the $6 to climb to the top! All the staff are volunteers and clearly have a passion for what they are doing. They were exceptionally helpful and very knowledgeable. If you like lighthouse, this is a MUST go to destination.

Absolutely amazing drive and such a beautiful sight to see!

Not much to look at. Wish they had a little more. There was a place for kids to place which was nice

Very nice.

Great place to visit. Clear/clean water and sand.

A must visit area of this amazing state park.

A bit pricey. Have to be 44in tall so if you have kids shorter than this, it will be a problem. No real reason though, which is a shame.

Great beaches. Family friendly.

I love lighthouses and it was awesome to take a tour to the top!

Just love light houses. This one you can go up in for a very small fee. Also they have a gift shop. Very nice

Nice place to visit. The gift shop is reasonably priced and has alot of unusual sms unique gifts and decorations.

The have no food and the light house is expensive aswell as all the souvenirs in the store.

Best place to view the great Lake Erie. The view is really mesmerizing. The guide elaborates beautifully about the history of the lighthouse.

Beautiful white house on the beach in Presque Isle.

Very nice experience, very informed, they tell you everything you want to know about the property and the historic significance behind everything, would highly recommend to everybody!

Amazing experience. The volunteers were knowledgeable, kind and welcoming. Tour the lighthouse and climb to the top for a spectacular view of Lake Erie. Great way to take a break from the beach.

Cute little place to buy souvenirs
