Little McDonald Lake (North)

Located near Frazee in Otter Tail County, the north boat ramp provides public access to Little McDonald Lake, a 1,316-acre lake with a maximum depth of 109 feet. This is a straightforward public launch facility suitable for kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. The ramp can accommodate boats up to 12-18 feet, making it practical for most recreational paddlers and small to mid-size watercraft.

This access point is ideal for a full day of paddling or fishing on a sizable lake. With over 1,300 acres of water to explore, paddlers will find plenty of room for recreational trips. Check current conditions through the Minnesota DNR's Lake Finder tool before your visit for any updates on access status or facilities. No launch fees are typically charged unless the access is within a park requiring a vehicle permit.
