The sunset was beautiful again tonight at Lake Florida. When the sky is blue and the day is beautiful you can almost feel the warmth of summer! Make your vacation plans in a cabin now to watch the sunsets at Lake Florida.
The cabins get new shingles
March is here and on Tuesday morning the supplies arrived to re-shingle the cabins. We had a storm in 2012 and not all of the cabins got new roofs. Justin is back now to finish them. Gigs came himself from Perkins Lumber in Willmar to deliver the shingles. Between trees and power lines it was […]
Picking the countertop for cabin #9
The kitchen cabinets for cabin #9 are being built and it’s time to pick the countertops. We are thinking we would like granite and have 3 samples to choose from. We also have 4 choices of high definition laminate to choose from. We asked our friend and neighbor Colleen to come over and give us […]
Cabin #11 gets new shingles
2 years ago the resort was hit by a very bad storm in May. This spring we are getting new shingles and steel siding on the cabins. Cabin # 11 is the first to be shingled. Justin Gronseth and his helper John used sheets of plywood against the cabin to make sure we didn’t also […]
Our first guests in cabin #9
Today we had our first guests visit cabin #9. As you can see, it was a beautiful day! The Peiks have been staying at Dickerson’s Resort for about 7 years. Their “official” cabin is #7, but they have also stayed in cabin #12 and the old cabin #9. The 4 of them had an overnight […]
Cabin #9 wall-blue or green?
There is a big decision to be made in cabin #9. There is a small wall in the livingroom that needs an accent color. I’m thinking blue or green. Blue is said to have a calming effect. Today we are trying out blue like the water of Lake Florida. Maybe tomorrow I will try painting […]
A little paint for cabin #9
Today was the day to do a little painting in cabin #9. I painted around all of the doors and windows to make it easier after the doors are put in and the casings on-I hope!
Welcome Spring to Lake Florida!
Today was a beautiful, sunny day at Lake Florida and we decided it was time to break out a spring flag at the resort. Whenever there is a project, Simon is right there to help and take part. Let’s hope the snow realizes we are tied of it and melts!
Lake Florida sunset March 7
There were just enough clouds on March 7th to give us a spectacular sunset at Lake Florida. Sunsets like this with yellows, oranges and pink all melded together remind me of rainbow sherbet. If you use your imagination, you can see the ripples in the water 🙂 Bring your family to stay with us and […]
More snow drifts at the resort
We had a dusting of snow again at the resort and then the wind blew, and blew and blew!! The drifts around the cabins are even higher than before and have some interesting designs. This cabin was blasted by snow and appears to be “dripping snow ice!” The curl kind of looks like the top […]
