In the Land of 10,000 Lakes There’s only One Lake City
SCENIC FUN
Situated at the Mississippi River’s widest point and on the iconic Highway 61 only 60 minutes south of the Twin Cities, Lake City is one of the Midwest’s most scenic natural playgrounds. With miles of shoreline, beautiful beaches, world-class angling, and plenty of ways to get on the water, you’ve just found your new favorite lake escape!
BIG EVENTS
Lake City celebrates its distinction as the Birthplace of Water Skiing with huge lakeside concerts, ski shows, and more during the last full weekend in June. Throughout the year visitors will also find epic supported bike tours, beer fests, art fairs, haunted trails, and much more at an exciting array of local events and festivals.
LOCAL FLAIR
Brimming with independent shops, galleries, and restaurants, small-town charm meets exceptional experiences here. Dine with a panoramic view after hunting for eclectic treasures, or grab gourmet take-out for a chartered sail on Lake Pepin. Whatever your taste, you’ll find what you love in Lake City.
