Kremer Lake

After owning the property for over a decade, The Trust for Public Land completed its mission to bring into public ownership these 33 acres wedged between Kremer Lake—a popular deep-water trout lake—and the Edge of the Wilderness Scenic Byway in the heart of northern Minnesota’s Chippewa National Forest. The land includes almost a mile of lake frontage in a four-season recreation area, an ideal location for second-home development, and  located just a few miles north of the City of Grand Rapids.  Funding from the Land and Water Conservation Fund facilitated the conveyance of this land to the USFS as an addition to the Suomi Hills Recreation Area, a popular destination for outdoor recreation including cross-country skiing, hiking, backpacking, canoeing and mountain biking.
