Whether you are seeking a romantic escape or a weekend of welcome luxury and relaxation, Minnesota's bed and breakfasts blend local expertise, multi-course dining, and unique architecture and settings. Each residence tells its own story, from late 1800s mansions with literary themes to a modern home along a Lake Superior beach.
Come check out Winterfest in Dawson for lots of activities and events all weekend. Fun for the whole family!
Join us for our annual On-the-Water Cleanup! Volunteers clean up the banks of the Red River in canoes. Volunteers must have enough experience canoeing to be comfortable reaching over in a canoe to pick up trash. Back up weather date is August 11. Please do not wear flip flops and wear clothes that can get wet and muddy.
Sign up to volunteer by emailing [email protected], calling 701-356-8915, or by using our online volunteer form:
Create a resilient yard to sustain the Red River by making your own compost tumbler. Workshops include a presentation on the basics of composting. By tumbling this composter around once a week, you could have a barrel of compost by the end of the season. Be ready to take home an empty 55-gallon barrel. The barrel may be white or blue.
Fee: $59 or $54 for Moorhead residents. Class fee includes all other supplies.
Pre-registration is required. Register through Moorhead Community Education (limited spots available).

Whether you want to practice your Flying V or polish your toe pick, Minnesota’s ice skating rinks are the perfect surface for winter fun.
Found in every corner of the state, ice rinks form on frozen lakes, ponds and even rivers as soon as the ice is thick enough with refrigerated rinks popping up around Thanksgiving or even earlier. In addition to skating, most of the rinks on this list have skates available for rent as well as warming houses and/or other perks like concessions and special events.
If there's one thing that's synonymous with winter in Minnesota, it's snow. And if there's one thing Minnesotans love to do when it snows, it's ski.
