We don’t have a lot of snow at the resort and the temperatures this winter have been quite variable. We’ve had many bitterly cold days below zero, but today was just the opposite. It’s February 19th and the temperature rose to 41 degrees causing melting everywhere! The sunset is beautiful reflecting on the water on […]
Fun away from the resort
January 30, 2014 by
Simon & Sasha have had just about enough of this cold Minnesota weather. They really like to go outside, but today have decided that snuggling and the sun are much better – it’s 20 degrees below! Tonight we are in Marshall, Minnesota having dinner with my niece and her family. It’s been way too long […]

We’re a “little nutty” at Lake Florida!
November 6, 2013 by
We are very fortunate to have many trees at the resort to provide shade for the cabins. With each tree there is always a nut or seed that falls needing clean up! Many, many years ago, Bob’s grandfather brought a Black Walnut Tree in a coffee can from Lucan, Minnesota where he was from and […]

The Ice & the Sunset
February 20, 2012 by
Friday Bob went out in the afternoon to take pictures of the ice heaves and the resort from the north. The ice heaves are incredible all around the lake! If you have a lake near you, take the time and drive around to see. The docks and lifts look so lonely on the beach. It […]

Today was the day to wash the skylight in cabin #6. These is easily done by using a ladder to get on the roof of cabin #5 and then stretching to step up to the roof of cabin #6. It’s much more fun and exciting than it looks! 🙂 This is the view […]
