And just like that, the 2020 Lake Season is over. The boat lift “goblin cages” (as the girls call them) will watch over the beach for the winter, waiting for y’all to return in the spring. Thank you for another great season. We wish you all a safe and healthy winter. See you in 2021! 💜The Ebert Family

COVID-19 Message for our weekly cottage rental guests: With the information we have received from Minnesota Governor Walz, the CDC, the MN Department of Health and the Minnesota DNR we have decided to wait until Governor Walz makes a decision about the current Stay-At-Home Order (set to expire on May 4) and any potential updates to the restrictions relevant to MN resorts before we decide what action we will take regarding Weekly Cottage rentals for Summer 2020.--The Ebert family

Hello dear ones! Things are starting to look like spring around the resort! The ice is starting to recede on our side of the lake, thanks to slightly warmer temps and good, strong winds. Lots of wildlife are returning to the lake. This week we've been watching/listening to eagles, geese, swans, frogs and wood ducks in the slough, wild turkeys, deer, butterflies, robins...and today we had our first loon sighting of the season! We are doing what we can to get the resort ready for your return, and we will keep you updated when we know more about opening dates and any changes related to COVID-19. We hope you are all safe and healthy. We can't wait for YOUR return to the lake! 💜The Ebert's

A gentle reminder as we head into the July 4th holiday that booze and boating don’t mix. Get a sober driver or stay off the water. And if you’re in/on/around the lake, be careful, pay attention and stay safe so that we all can enjoy a fun and relaxing long weekend. 💜
