• DL Cruise Nights

    Detroit Lakes Minnesota Detroit Lakes

    Be sure to check out the Annual DL Cruise Night by the Detroit Lakes Minnesota City Beach the second Wednesday of June - September (June 11, July 9, August 13, September 10). Get here early so you'll have time to look at the 200-plus buffed and shiny vintage automobiles parked along West Lake Drive. Five blocks of these beauties are a reminder of yesteryear. Don’t zoom past the cars—the lake breeze is a pleasure unto itself. When your stomach roars louder than a muffler, it’s time to head to the many bars and grills serving up pizza, burgers and more.
