It’s time to book your family friendly fishing resort in central #Minnesota

Summer resorts in Minnesota often book up fast. As a listing website, we get all kinds of emails asking us to help people find last minute availability. We try our hardest but most people, once going to a resort, book for the following year and start thinking about their vacation six months to nine months before. We always suggest booking ahead and booking directly for the best availability, dates, and rates.

If your family is looking for a resort that keeps the kids busy and happy and parents relaxed and comfortable, then Dickerson’s Lodge is where it’s at. This centrally located resort is in Spicer, MN. The Dickerson’s sure go out of their way to make you feel welcome, and even greet you with a warm plate of chocolate chip cookies. They have cabins for every family size and dynamic.

Kids love the jungle gym but the real stars around here are all the water toys such as the floating dock, paddle boats, canoes, kayaks, slide, sand box, tubes, sail boat and more. The level beach is perfect for those a little wobbly on their toes and parents can oversee the action in a chaise lounge chair right on the beach or get in on the action themselves. Kids often fish right off the dock where they can catch plenty of sunnies or crappies. This lodge also has plenty of boat rentals if you want to cruise around the lake or fish for muskies. There is a fish cleaning house located right on the resort!

Bob and Connie are always doing something! Sunday mornings, wake up and smell the coffee, literally. Freshly brewed coffee and fresh homemade donuts and juice are available! Also enjoy Pizza delight on Mondays night and Thursdays, Bob drives the hayride all around the resort for the kiddos.

The Spicer area is a wonderful area and is part of the Willmar Lakes area. There are so many lakes to choose from. We may be biased a little but the clean and beautiful Lake Florida is our favorite. Among other lakes are Green Lake, Nest, Norway and Long Lake. It’s just about the shimmering waters though, this area also hosts lots of events, cruises, and shows along with lots of restaurants and shopping. Enjoy a murder mystery dinner, a house boat cruise, a dinner cruise, race around the track at big Kahuna Park, or catch a show from the Little Crow Ski team or watch a flick at the Spicer Cinema.

Don’t wait, view the resort and cabins here on our website. You can view photos, videos and rates here and BOOK DIRECTLY with Bob and Connie. Relax, you’re on cabin time now.

This strong community embraces those looking to explore the Leech Lake area with their friends and loved ones.

New Fantastic #Minnesota #Fall Color Tours

Minnesota is well known for its cooler summer nights and the winter sport that brings thousands up for the hunting, skiing and snowmobiling but for a short period of time, the leaves changing bring an ambience to the state that is of quiet admiration. Three fall color tours that you should not miss out are all here:

two harbors

Two Harbors: For a full season of fall color, the variety of hardwoods create a sweet smell and visual paradise. Enjoy it by hiking, biking, driving and more but one of the most recommended ways to view the fall color would be by the North Shore Scenic Train. Observe the Silver Cliffs over Lake Superior for a spectacular view. Two Harbors Vacation Rentals

gunflint trail

Gunflint Trail: This paved road is over 50 miles long that goes from Grand Marais to the Canadian border along the northeastern corner of Minnesota. This road is voted is nationally recognized as a scenic and historical road. This is crossed by the Laurentian Divide. This gives you a unique opportunity to hike over some of the oldest exposed rock on Earth. It also snakes its way around the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, a strikingly beautiful area that reminds us that we are just a small part of a big picture. Grand Marais Cabin Rentals

duluth mn

Duluth: While people have always known how great Duluth can be for its incredible accommodations, restaurants, and more, the real celebrity here is nature. Fall color can be witnessed while checking out other area attractions such as the Skyline Drive and the North Shore Scenic Drive. The Duluth Skyline Parkway is stunning. It overlooks the port of Duluth and a shoreline that goes on forever of Lake Superior. Duluth Vacation Rentals
