    LETS GET WET AND A LITTLE BIT WILD

    Start your day with the kids splashing around at the pool, then take them to where the fun really begins... the splash pad & skate park. After a busy morning, relax with burgers & milkshakes from the drive in before heading over to the Roseau River where you will spend the afternoon soaking up the afternoon sun while fishing, canoe or kayaking. End your day by refueling with everyone's favorite pizza for dinner!

    HAVE YOU EVER TASTED FRESH BLUEBERRY PIE?

    The blueberries are plentiful in Beltrami Forest in the month of July. Bring your empty pails. Spend the afternoon in the forest picking wild blueberries. Enjoy the peaceful scenery of the woods while filling your buckets. Hopefully you won’t eat them all before you get home to your pie baking activity! Fresh blueberries are delicious!
