Conveniently located just off of Lake Park Road, you are mere steps from the shores of the Mississippi Lake.  Rich in history, the Mississippi Lake was a mecca for lumber barons in the 1800s, as majestic pines were shipped to England to build British navy ships.  Allen’s Point, later called Lake Park, provided a camping area for workers & industrialists alike, with a sandy beach, clear water, and good fishing – which it still has today.  Lake Park Lodge, originally built as a hotel in 1887, is still a landmark.  Mississippi Lake has over 58 km of shoreline, and offers outdoor activity in summer and winter, such as swimming,   campgrounds, and there is a public boat launch for your canoe or fishing boat just steps away.  Walleye, Northern Pike, Smallmouth and Largemouth Bass are just some of the species found in the Lake.  In colder months, the Lake offers a place for cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and ice fishing.
