Small town Minnesota

Dorsett MN

A small unincorporated town with a scant population of 22.
Know as the Restaurant capitol of the world given the ration of 4 restaurants to 22 people.

(1 cafe, 2 Mexican and 1 Italian)

 Dorset is a short drive of about 12 miles from our cabin.

In the summer it's a popular resort area being near many of the lakes of Northern Minnesota.  

As stated above the town boast of it's 4 restraunts as well as gift shops, mini golf,
a small ice cream store booth, a church and an antique store.

One of our favorite eatery is Zorbarz (just outside of Dorset) 

We frequent it often... after church, with friends or just the 2 of us.

This last Sunday Rick and I decided to go to the annual Dorset Garage sales.
Tables lined the street with "garage sale goods"

It was fun to wander and pick through the tables of "goods"
We had our eyes on two things...both were gone when we came back to purchase them.
My thoughts...It wasn't meant to be.

From inside the antique shop looking out.

When my boys were little they used to love looking at "weapons"

Now that I think of it.... they still do.

Dorset also sits on the Heartland Bike Trail that goes from Park Rapids to Walker. 

A great pit stop for those biker that need to stretch or maybe grab a quick meal/ treat.

 I got a kick out of this little hand-written sign,
made me chuckle that the house is IDEAL for 1-2 people.

There are so many little town in Minnesota that are worth a visit,
many hidden treasure await those who seek.
