Birders and snowshoer paradise near Minneapolis/St Paul! Here are a few local tidbits of nearby events.


At nearby Point Douglas (4 blocks from the inn), a male Harlequin Duck has returned for the third winter in a row, and this year he was joined by two Long-Tailed Ducks. These coastal species do not usually winter here and have brought many birdwatchers to the area.


Snow-shoeing and Owling in the Moonlight

Enjoy the winter night under the light of the moon with a relaxing snowshoe hike at Carpenter Nature Center on January 26th from 7-9 p.m. Afterward, warm up by the fire and enjoy some fresh popcorn and hot apple cider then head to the inn for an evening of cozy relaxation and pampering. Snowshoes are provided by Carpenter Nature Center or you may bring your own. Dress appropriately for the weather; recommended for ages 10 and up. For more information about upcoming programs and events please visit their website (www.carpenternaturecenter.org).
