Fall is a nice time to relax on the bike trail. The leaves were great and the trail was nice. Relaxing trail worth the drive to get to. Enjoyed the Pine River Chamber of Commerce building, nice clean restrooms, great things to look at.

There’s so much to see, we could have stayed several more hours. There are displays covering every war in the history of Minnesota, and all kinds of vehicles and equipment out on the grounds. I very highly recommend this museum.

WE are a smaller sized outdoor FAMILY waterpark with a little bit of FUN for everyone.There is; a 480' BODY slide with twisting/turning fun for all, a 65' high DROP slide for the thrill seekers; and a 12' high FAMILY slide that everyone likes! REALLY! We have a HUGE zero depth entry ACTIVITY pool warmed to 84 degrees, and; 2 HOT TUBS at 95 degrees to soak away those aches and pains or warm up on days that are just a little bit cooler. There are plenty of lounge chairs both in the SUN or under an UMBRELLA. In 2013 we added a BBQ/MEXICAN dine in or take out resturant. We HOST great BIRTHDAY partys, Family reunions, corporate picnics! We are DAYCARE friendly. Bring your family, a PICNIC lunch and spend the day.

Newly remodeled and loving it!! There is just something special about being out on the boat, driving up to the dock and enjoying some good grub at Ernies!! The food is good, the service is good and the view is fantastic!! The new menu has some good offerings, but we had a shorter stay this year so we only had one lunch with cheese curds and wings. I would say that both appetizers were quite good. There is an outdoor sand volleyball court, swing set and they offer live music. A stop at Ernies should definitely be on your agenda!!

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Linden Hill consists of two mansions, situated on nine acres, overlooking the Mississippi River. The mansions, fully furnished with original artifacts, were built in 1898. One mansion houses the Linden Hill Museum, the other can be rented for special events. There is a walking tour on the grounds that is open year round and free to the public!

We go to a lot of breweries in Minnesota. This one has an extensive selection of beers, they do flights, is in a cool building and has a great patio area. Couldn't ask for more, I dont think! Had a great time.
