Directional Map
Of all the large northern Minnesota lakes, Lake Mille Lacs is the easiest to reach from the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul or from the Twin Ports of Duluth and Superior.
Highway 65 and 169 will bring you to Lake Mille Lacs in less than 2 hours from the Twin Cities. The trip from the Twin Ports is approximately 80 miles.
The time you save by choosing Lake Mille Lacs means more time on the lake, less on the road.
While the proximity of Mille Lacs to these major cities makes it convenient for weekend outings and mini-vacations, the variety of activities available year round make it the perfect choice for Minnesota family vacations of any length.
