Minnewaukan, ND

Set about twenty-five miles west of the city of Devils Lake, Minnewaukan is a quiet prairie town where daily life revolves around open water and good neighbors. As the seat of Benson County, it handles local government business for the area, but the real appeal is its relaxed lakeside setting. Residents enjoy easy access to great fishing, thanks to a local boat ramp, a community fish-cleaning station, and Humphrey Memorial Park right along the shoreline. Between hometown gatherings like the annual Fffishtival and a peaceful day-to-day rhythm, Minnewaukan offers a down-to-earth place to settle down with one of North Dakota's best fisheries right in the backyard.
