Stalker Lake

Stalker Lake is a 1,357-acre lake in Otter Tail County, Minnesota, offering a public boat launch for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters. The lake reaches a maximum depth of 95 feet and provides scenic paddling opportunities in the area. The boat launch allows access for a variety of watercraft, making it suitable for recreational paddling, fishing, and boating activities.

The Stalker Lake access point is conveniently located near the Fergus Falls Wetland Management District, which encompasses nearly 50,000 acres of wildlife habitat across five counties. This proximity makes the area ideal for paddlers interested in exploring diverse wetland ecosystems and viewing wildlife. Most standard recreational boats (12-18 feet) can be launched at the facility, though paddlers with kayaks and canoes will find easy water access.

Before visiting, check current conditions and any specific access requirements through the Minnesota DNR or local resources, as water levels and facility status may vary seasonally.
