Can You Name Minnesota's Nine Largest Lakes (Excluding Superior)?

Minnesota: "The Land of 10,000 Lakes!"

We actually have 11,842 lakes that are 10 acres or more. Now, that's A LOT of water.

We take a lot of pride in our lakes, but can you name the nine largest ones in the state? (Excluding Lake Superior and Lake of the Woods that span multiple territories/states.)

Here's a better question: Have you been to all of them?

So, which lakes have you been to? Let us know in the comments below.

Many of the included towns jump out at the casual observer as popular summer-rental spots--the Ozarks' Branson, Missouri, or Arizona's Lake Havasu--it might surprise you to dive deeper into some quality-of-life offerings beyond the beach and vacation homes. You'll likely pick up some knowledge from a wide range of Americana: one of the last remaining 1950s-style drive-ins in the Midwest; a Florida town that started as a Civil War veteran retirement area; an island boasting some of the country's top public schools and wealth-earners right in the middle of a lake between Seattle and Bellevue; and even a California town containing much more than Johnny Cash's prison blues.
