Watson, MN

With fewer than 200 residents, Watson is a quiet western Minnesota town with deep farming roots and an unbeatable backyard for outdoor enthusiasts. It sits right by the Lac qui Parle Wildlife Management Area, earning it the title of Goose Capital of the USA as massive flocks of Canada geese pass through each fall. Day-to-day life here is relaxed and neighborly, centered around wide-open prairie skies, hunting, and fishing on the nearby lakes and rivers. Highways 59 and 7 make it simple to commute to larger neighboring towns like Montevideo while coming home to total peace and quiet.
