Mississippi River Headwaters - Cross Lake

You will find something unique about a vacation in Minnesota's lake country. Six lakes — Gull Lake, the Whitefish Chain (Cross Lake), Big Sandy Lake, Pokegama Lake, Leech Lake, and Lake Winnibigoshish — are roughly bounded by a triangle from Brainerd to Bemidji to Grand Rapids in central Minnesota. Campfires and sunsets and the peacefulness of the water make each day a special event. From the first days of summer to the golden days of fall, and throughout the year, visitors to the Mississippi River Headwaters Lakes Project enjoy a special experience that is Minnesota at its best.
