The Big Lake center is around 3 miles northeast of Monticello Big Lake Hospital and 3 miles northeast of Monticello Army National Guard.

This quaint small city is located just northwest of the bustling Twin Cities metro area, making it the perfect place to escape the city's noise and commotion. With a population of just over 11,000, Big Lake is a spot to escape the city and enjoy the quiet beauty of nature. Big Lake was first settled in the early 1800s. The city was originally named Humboldt until 1867 and was later renamed after the large lake on which it is located. The area boasts beautiful lakes and parks, friendly locals, and a variety of businesses and amenities. Surrounded by lakes, forests, and parks, Big Lake is a nature lover's paradise. In the summer, you can enjoy swimming, fishing, and hiking, and in the winter, you can hit the slopes at one of the nearby ski resorts. If you'd like to fish, you can go to the shore and cast a line, or you can go boating on the lake. There are a number of different fish species in the lake, including bass, trout, and catfish. There are also a number of swimming spots all around the lake. If you enjoy extreme activities, you can go tubing or skiing behind a boat or check out the hiking trails in the area. Or, you can rent a kayak or paddleboard and get out onto the water. So, if you want to relax, explore, or eat, Big Lake is the place for you. Book a room in one of the local hotels and start planning your trip today. More from this guide...
