About this map

Lake Lida dominates this landscape in Otter Tail County, its complex shoreline defining the local development patterns of the early 21st century. The density of small, interconnected water bodies like Crystal Lake, Lake Franklin, and Lake Lizzie reflects a region deeply tied to its glacial hydrology. Road networks such as MN-108 and Co HWY-4 provide access to lakeside settlements like Stoney Bar, while numerous residential lanes like Silent Haven Dr and San Dee Cove Dr illustrate the growth of recreational and permanent housing around the water's edge.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of religious and commemorative sites across the township. The map identifies several distinct burial grounds, including the Scandinavian Christian Mission Church Cem, Lake Lida Cem, and the Maplewood Lutheran Church Cem. These features, alongside family-named terrain like Matson Point Rd, offer a clear picture of the community's established social and historical foundations within the lake country.
