22. Marsh Lake

Two miles south of Appleton on TH 119, turn right on the first gravel road marked by Marsh Lake Dam sign. Marsh Lake is a man-made reservoir on the Minnesota River which has one of the only two nesting colonies of the white pelican in Minnesota. View them close-up below the Marsh Lake dam as well as other locations along the river. This is also an excellent spot for shore fishing.
