2010 Map of Lake Koronis

About this map

Lake Koronis and its distinct chain of islands—First Island, Second Island, and Third Island—anchor this Stearns County landscape. The map reveals a transition between aquatic recreation and the agricultural patterns of central Minnesota, with significant landmarks such as the Lake Koronis Assembly Ground and the Lake Koronis Regional Park Campground lining the shores. The North Fork Crow River snakes southward from Rice Lake, eventually meeting the Middle Fork Crow River at the bottom of the quadrangle. Local aviation is well-represented by the Paynesville Municipal Airport in the northwest and the smaller Empire Valley Airport to the south. For those researching family history, the map precisely locates the Ebenezer Church Cemetery and Manannah Cemetery, which remain as long-standing fixtures within the rural grid of county highways and township roads.
