Clearwater Lake MN East of Clearbrook



One of the most attractive lakes in North West Minnesota is Clearwater Lake and true to its name the water is realitively clear for this area. There is very little published information on this lake and I could find very little information online about it. I would need to go to the county seat of Clearwater County, which is Bagley, Minnesota and do the paper and pen type of reasearch there. What I have found online is that the Clearwater lake as we know it is the result of gravity dam on the Clearwater River. It is owned by the state of Minnesota and has been there since 1931. The length is sixty feet and County Highway 4 uses the dam to cross the river. What is really nice is there are a number of islands on the west side of the lake and a few of the islands have homes and cabins on them.
