Six Mile Lake Campground

Six Mile Lake Campground offers a free public boat launch providing convenient access to this 1,323-acre lake in Cass County, Minnesota. The launch is located within a dispersed camping area near Bena that features 8 primitive campsites and basic facilities (pit toilet), making it a good option for paddlers and boaters seeking an affordable base for exploring the lake. The facility is located just a couple miles off US Highway 2 east of Bena.

Six Mile Lake has a maximum depth of 68 feet and is known for good fishing opportunities, particularly for bass and pike. The lake supports a range of recreational boating and paddling activities. Parking is available near the launch, though spaces are limited and the area is first-come, first-served. Boat slips may also be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Campsites allow 14 days of free camping and are open to various watercraft and camping setups.
