Summer time means time on the lake...and what better place than in one of Minnesota's 10,000 lakes?!

Nav:

Big Cormerant Lake: So this Nav is all about Big Cormerant Lake but it could be about many of Minnesota's lakes. Pontoons, jet skis, kayaks...whatever. The water is calm and warm (in the summer) so get out there. People who live on the lake have all kinds of toys.
Pro Tip: There is a public boat launch. Also, the lake freezes over in the winter. Plan for late spring to late summer for the best access.

Nosh:

Zorba's: A pizza joint known by all the locals, located in nearby Detroit Lakes.

The Fireside: An upscale seafood joint that's been here since 1948, also located in Detroit Lakes.
Pro Tip: Reservations are highly recommended for dinner service. Lunch might be able to accommodate walk-ins.

Nip:

The Fireside: The Grey Goose Dirty Martini is legit!
