Although the Mille Lacs Lake area is famous for walleye fishing and its tourism, there is more substance and depth to the area than that. There are eight established communities surrounding the massive lake. Wahkon was the earliest settlement in the Mille Lacs area, beginning its town history in 1885. The communities around the lake exemplify small town living at its best. They have rich histories.

Today, our unique communities have fostered a unique lifestyle. The Mille Lacs Lake area is a real community--a good, decent place to live, which makes it a wonderful place to visit.
