About This Access Site
Molly Stark Lake is a 152-acre public access lake in Otter Tail County near Battle Lake, Minnesota. The boat ramp provides convenient launching for kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. The lake features good water clarity and a maximum depth of 48 feet, making it suitable for recreational paddling and fishing throughout the season.
The lake supports a healthy fishery including walleye, northern pike, black crappie, bass, and sunfish, so you may encounter anglers alongside paddlers. Standard Minnesota boat ramp facilities allow launching of boats up to 12-18 feet, though there are generally no launch fees at public access sites unless a park vehicle permit is required. For current conditions, hours of operation, and any access updates, check the Minnesota DNR's Lake Finder database before your visit.
