New owners have taken over at Key Largo, a Lake Shetek icon for decades.

The Key Largo team is Ryan and Brandee Bullerman of Luverne; Darren and Stacie Schuur of Chandler, and Terry and Carrie Van Dyke of Slayton, who ran the Green Lantern in Hardwick for 21 years.

“We all work full time, but we knew not opening Key Largo would be detrimental to Lake Shetek,” said Carrie Van Dyke, who is currently running VanBullys in Iona as well. “We couldn’t imagine Key Largo not being open. The Schuurs family have helped us out on many occasions and we work well together. Darren enjoys cooking and grilling, Stacie and Brandee like helping people out and making them feel welcome and putting a smile on their face. We are all business owners. We have family and friends who are always willing to lend a hand, who have always been there. We love having fun. We love small communities and the camaraderie amongst them. We’re looking forward to providing a laid-back, relaxing atmosphere.”

Carrie Van Dyke said the sixheaded ownership group is looking forward to carrying on the tradition at Key Largo of hosting major events such as weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, work parties, baby showers, class reunions, retirement parties, and fashion and vendor shows.
