Clinker Lake

Clinker Lake is an 81-acre lake in Crow Wing County near Cuyuna, Minnesota, offering public boat access via a dedicated ramp. The lake reaches a maximum depth of 35 feet, making it suitable for various watercraft including kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. Most standard recreational boats (typically 12-18 feet) can be launched from this access point. There are no launch fees unless a vehicle permit is required by the managing authority.

The lake is conveniently located near other popular water recreation areas, including the Mississippi River Headwaters and the Whitefish Chain lakes to the north. This makes Clinker Lake a good option for paddlers and anglers looking to explore Minnesota's lake country.
