Take another look at Vergas!

Home of the world's largest Loon, the state bird, Vergas is a quiet, relaxing community of 311 people in the pristine Detroit Lakes area of central Minnesota. In fact, the loon has become the community's mascot with its famous 20-foot replica of the bird and Looney Daze, a community and area favorite event.

Looney Daze, hosted every August in the small community, attracts people from all over the lakes area and beyond. Included in the "daze" are multiple events for you to watch and become a part of such as the Road Rally giving honors to the overall winner, the best-dressed, and best-decorated vehicle; a large parade with a float competition; artist and craft show and Fine-Arts Best-of-Show; 5k Walk/Run; a popular Collector Car Show; and of course, Loon Calling.

Vergas is a beautiful area to vacation or retire with all the conviences with being just minutes from Detroit Lakes and short drives to Fargo, Fergus Falls, Alexandria, and even Minneapolis.
