Crooked Lake

Crooked Lake in Farwell, Douglas County offers a concrete boat ramp for easy water access in a scenic north-central Minnesota setting. The 115-acre lake features a maximum depth of 26 feet and is surrounded by flat-to-gently-rolling terrain with sandy soils. A vault toilet and parking area are available at the access site to support paddlers and boaters. The ramp is well-suited for kayaks, canoes, and small to medium recreational boats.

This access point is an excellent starting location for paddlers planning to explore Crooked Lake or venture into connecting waterways, including trips between Crooked and Burt Lakes via the Crooked River. The sandy bottom and moderate depth make it suitable for various water activities. Note that the access site is closed from 11:00 pm to 4:00 am, and swimming and wading are not permitted.
