I really feel bad if there is a day without a sunset that we can see. I thought yesterday was going to be one of those days. As we looked across Lake Florida at about 7:30 there were huge clouds that were going to get in the way. Bob quickly snapped a picture. It was […]
Lake Florida Sunsets
After a gorgeous Sunday & Monday, Tuesday was a rainy, cloudy day. Wednesday was fairly good – it misted off and on, but at 4:00 we came inside when it started to snow! The flakes were as big as a quarter. Of course they didn’t last long and thankfully didn’t accumulate. Yesterday, Thursday was a […]
Lake Florida Sunsets
This is the first in what we hope will be daily sunset pictures from Lake Florida. Of course the clouds will be in charge of what we capture! Yesterday was such a beautiful day at the resort. We got a lot of yard work done and some projects in the cabins. At the end of […]
Meet Our Guests
Our guests we want you to meet today are a couple of sweeties! Mia & Devin came to Dickerson’s Lake Florida Resort for the first time in August of 2005. Their mom Mary found an ad for our resort in the Southern Minnesota Tourism Guide and thought our beach looked like the place to be! […]
Life at a Minnesota Cabin Resort
It is wonderful to have the ice off of the lake. It gives us hope that summer will come. The loons arrived before the ice was totally gone, but swam between the floating masses of ice. Now that the is is officially gone as of April 16th, all of the wildlife are coming to visit. […]
The Long Minnesota Winter
The ice is slowly breaking up and melting. Â Â Â Â Â Open water looks great! We lost a lot of ice over night. Lake Florida is probably 50% ice free. We were relieved when we got up this morning that the ice wasn’t piled 10 feet high on our beach and yard. Ice out […]
The Long Minnesota Winter
Most of us living here in Minnesota have had enough of winter. A couple of times in the last few weeks it has appeared to be “almost” over and then we get another little blast of snow and/or cold. Yesterday it started out in the low 30’s and by mid afternoon it was 68 degrees! […]

Meet our guests!

Fishing, swimming and reading are some of the things Chris enjoys on vacation. Chris’s favorite foods are cheeseburgers […]
The Long Minnesota Winter!
The long Minnesota winter keeps rolling along! Last Tuesday night the cabins and resort were blanketed with about 9 more inches of heavy, wet snow! Even our tractor/snow blower is tired of winter. It has aches and pains and really would like to be finished. The tractor is eagerly waiting the snow blower being taken […]
