Plenty of fishing opportunities in that area. I would bring some fishing gear if I were you.

I live about 20 miles north of there. Good fishing for the most part. Lots of things to do in the lake if you have access to a boat or jet ski. Close enough to a few larger towns of you feel the need to visit them. Don't let on if you have any farm experience, you might end up bailing hay!

google Alexandria Minnesota activities. just a short drive north from glenwood, distillery, wineries, Viking museum, etc. (not talking about Vikings football, the other Vikings) great restaurant right on the lake, in the city limits of glenwood. believe its called lakeside. full bar, dine inside or on the patio on the lake. have a safe and fun trip.

Yes, it's called lakeside. Been awhile since I've been there but heard it's not as good as it used to be...but then what ever is? Oh, and we actually have over 15000 lakes. But who knows how many now with all this rain?

Thanks. My son just got back from Alexandria and looked like a nice place to visit.He also warned me about the mosquitoes,said he thought Ks was bad until he went to Lake Geneva. Anyhow,I plan to fish,along with the boys and would be right at home but have to include the Mrs. in things she would like to do as well.Actually going north to get a break from the 103 heat index,if I get things back in order after the early morning tornado.Anybody want a job hauling trees and raking sticks I can keep you busy for a couple weeks.lol

some good guides in the alex/osakis area if you want to go that route. heard the walleye bites been good on osakis lately. don't know how old your kids are, but maybe a "most everything included" day with a guide might be easiest, and very good odds of everyone catching walleyes and the pesky snot rockets. might be worth checking out.

My son told me the day he left the state record was broken. I researched it and saw it was possibly the new world record but it wasn't certified. 62 inches I believe?
