MINNESOTA’S NEWEST TRADITION

Livin’ the Ice Castle life. 

While Minnesota is known for its 10,000 lakes, Minnesotans are known for their many yearly traditions. From the fishing opener to kick off spring to “The Great Minnesota Get-together” that signals the winding down of summer, Minnesotans love their family friendly traditions… especially if they involve outdoor recreation.Smokey Hills Logo The newest Minnesota tradition, according to Hendri Ernst at Smokey Hills Outdoor Store in Park Rapids, MN, embodies that outdoor spirit Minnesotans are famous for. “Don’t let the name fool you,” Hendri started to explain, “Ice Castle fish houses have become the most popular way to camp and spend time with the family throughout the spring, summer and fall. In fact, Ice Castle has been the number one selling camper in Minnesota for the past three years.”

 

DOUBLE-DUTY FUN
The “RV Edition” Ice Castle has completely transformed the industry. With modern RV amenities like flush toilets and air conditioning, these all-purpose campers
have broken down the traditional barriers that used to separate ice fishing trailers from summer camping trailers. Today’s Ice Castle is an all-in-one, multi-purpose family camper that pulls double duty: It’s still the world’s best ice house in the winter, but it’s also become the go-to family camper for spring, summer and fall adventures.

Minnesotans are living the Ice Castle life… all year long. Hendri has watched the phenomenon grow from a trend to tradition over the past few years, as Smokey Hills Outdoor Store has become the area’s Ice Castle destination. “Everyone has been so excited about this new RV Edition Ice Castle,” he said. “We’reselling a lot of the 17-foot and 21-foot models, because our customers are realizing they’re essentially getting a two-for-one deal — a luxury ice house for winter and a totally modern camper for summer — and they’re still saving thousands of dollars compared to buying a traditional summer camper.”
