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.

Where to find solace among friends and family

Booking a vacation rental for a large crowd can help with congestion over a week and allow more space and convenience for those that come from a far.

conger

We often don’t think of vacation rentals for more than just a family vacation but vacation rentals are nice for other reasons too. Have you thought about a vacation rental for these occasions?

  • Small lakeside wedding
  • Vowel renewal
  • Family reunion
  • Corporate retreat
  • Leadership conference
  • Girl’s week (the guys get one every fall, don’t they?)
  • Meditation retreat
  • Babymoon

conger1

When renting a vacation rental, it is always best to weigh your options. Do you want the whole group at once or coming in spurts? Is there ample parking? Are there enough things to do for the whole group? Can the kitchen accommodate the needs of the group?

The Conger Collection offer many larger vacation rentals that provide ample room, tranquil settings, unique amenities and more.  The newest addition to their vacation rental homes is the Mishpocheh. This secluded home sits on 3 wooded acres on a semi-private bay, with 250 feet of sandy shoreline. The loft is a perfect place for kids to sleep and all three floors overlook Yellow Birch Lake and forest (superb when the leaves turn ravishing red and blaze orange in the fall).

conger1

Mishpocheh, pronounced “mish-POKH-ah,” literally translates to “family” but often means “extended family, close friends, and then some,” which is just what this spacious family retreat will offer you and your guests.

Mishpocheh has a covered boat dock, full kitchen, AC, Wi-Fi, private beach, lakeside fire pit, and more on site amenities. This home is also walking distance from the Eagle River Championship golf course, minutes away from downtown shopping and fine dining. One hint we might provide…When totalling up the total cost of rental, divide this up between groups that are coming for a more final estimate. It is cheaper than you think!

Grab the boat, fishing line and beer- It’s #CabinTime at The Shores of Leech Lake

Shores of Leech Lake

Just because summer is winding down doesn’t mean you have to. Minnesota is a show off in the fall and for a good reason. The fall colors and the smell of the pine trees and crisp air makes a fall cabin vacation a true reprieve from the mundane. Walker, Minnesota is known for its many events and festivals with great shopping and dining as well. This strong community embraces those looking to explore the Leech Lake area with their friends and loved ones. Events such as Eelpout Festival in February and the Moondance Jam in July are prime reasons why there is something for everyone, anytime of the year. Here are reasons why you should definitely pack a bag and head out in the next few weeks though:

  1. Shores of Leech Lake is a great 3 bedroom vacation rental in the Leech Lake area with over 1,000 square feet. The best part? It’s pet friendly!               leech
  2. Plan a trip to Northern Lights Casino for a rocking good time playing blackjack, slots and even catching live entertainment on the weekends. Be sure to check out the Country Showdown Midwest Regional Finals, this October, which is free!
  3. Golfing Tianna Country Club is a must. This scenic and well-manicured lawn is a course you won’t forget. Check out Hole #2!   
  4. There are 2 protected harbors and covered slips for your boat. If you don’t have one, that’s fine too, Shores of Leech Lake have rentals! Check out the video of this marina and resort here!         leech4
  5. The lodge on the resort property can supply you with convenience items, pizza, laundry Wi-Fi, gas, bait and LOCALLY BREWED BEER so need to get off the resort if you don’t want, which we don’t blame you, it’s a beautiful resort. To view photos of the resort or to contact the owner, click this link!   
  6. The sand beach and waterslide makes every kid happy to play and dip their toes in the sand.    leech3
  7. Cottage 2 has a charcoal grill and a lakeside fire pit and portable propane burners for Fish fry dinners and also perfect for heating up a big pot of dad’s chili.
  8. The Heartland Trail and the Paul Bunyan Trail are well known to be some of the best maintained and well thought out trails and they located adjacent to the cottage. It offers hiking or biking. And, in the winter, extraordinary snowmobiling.
  9. Open year round for great hunting, birding, hiking, snowmobiling, ice fishing, and more. You will never be bored. Maybe relaxed, but NEVER bored. Just ask the guys that keep coming back year after year.
  10. Honestly we didn’t 10 reasons. Just view the videos and photos and you will see why this a must do!

To explore other Leech Lake Vacation rentals and cabins, you may search other towns such as Walker, Deer River, Hackensack and Longville.
