10-13-13 Lake Florida sunset

At the end of a full day working around the resort it’s nice to end the day with a beautiful sunset! Here it is from beginning to end! The very end! We’d love to share our Lake Florida sunsets with you in person. Make your plans now for a 2014 vacation at Dickerson’s Resort!   […]

We’re a “little nutty” at Lake Florida!

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 […]

A beautiful Lake Florida sunset! May 12,2013

The sunset across Lake Florida was beautiful again tonight. I couldn’t decide which picture was the prettiest, so I am showing them all to you!  

May 11-the Fishing Opener

It’s May 11, 2013, the day of the Governor’s Fishing Opener which is being held in the Park Rapids area this year. They are scrambling up north because many of the lakes haven’t lost their ice yet!I I was on my way into Willmar and just had to go back and take this picture. This […]

2 Loons at sunset

Just in the nick of time, a few clouds parted and we got to see that the sun really is there. 2 loons came to visit and sing to us. You can barely see them in the pink on Lake Florida. Life on the lake is great!  

5-8 Leaky waders!

  Having the ice go off of Lake Florida is one of the best signs of spring. This year, we have waited & waited & waited! Putting in the docks is an exciting time too. Being able to walk out and look at the beatiful water is so much fun. We have to wait for […]

5-7 A beautiful day at Dickerson’s!

We woke up this morning  in great anticipation that the ice would be gone from Lake Florida. It was not, but we think “today is the day!” There are many flowers still to be planted and with the sun shining it is a beautiful day to do it! This is a picture from the hill […]

5-6-13 The Ice hangs on

We hoped when we woke up this morning that the ice would be gone from Lake Florida, but no, it is hanging on yet another day! It is very interesting with the fog. The reflections of the clouds in the open water are almost as beautiful as the sunsets-don’t you think? We were lucky again […]

5-5-13 The Ice stays on!

In 2012 the ice left Lake Florida on the 18th of March. 2013 is a whole different story. It is now May 5th and Lake Florida still has ice! This morning we had so much fog with the ice you couldn’t see across the lake. 🙁 The beach is still there and it is great […]

A Majestic Resort Visitor

Today Bob looked out our kitchen window and there was an Eagle sitting on the Adirondack swing in front of cabin #7! We’ve never had one that close to us at the resort! Very cool!
