The Lakeview

06/03/2026

Today, Rick Windschitl and I celebrate 5 years of ownership of The Lakeview. We are still in Love with this place like we were the first time we moved here. We are so grateful for Joanne giving us the opportunity to stay here and see through her eyes the beauty of it. We are so Blessed for our Lakeview family who keep coming back and the new ones who have given this place a chance. We will never take it for granted and try our best to improve and keep it a Beautiful and Fun place to cherish memories with families and friends ❤️

May is Mental Health Awareness Month! It's a time to stop the stigma of mental health and to make space for people to reach out for help.
The Koochiching Mental Health Advisory Council asked local businesses and agencies to help spread awareness by putting up this year's poster for May is Mental Health Awareness Month... And they surely came through! Some are even sharing green hearts to write your name on and show your support too!
The following Koochiching County locations are displaying their support, look for this poster and thank them for stopping the stigma!

Thank you everyone!

This Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re reminding everyone that it’s okay not to be okay. Mental health struggles are a normal part of being human, and needing help doesn’t make you weak, it makes you brave.

Whether you’re feeling stressed, anxious, overwhelmed, or low, reaching out for support is a sign of strength. Talking to a friend, family member, or mental health professional can help you process emotions and find strategies to cope.

You are not alone. Your feelings are valid. Taking care of your mental health matters. Reach out to us at the link in our bio to learn more about the ways we can support you with your mental health.
