Arnesen sits along the southern shoreline of Lake of the Woods in this 2010 survey of Minnesota’s northern reaches. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the vast inland sea and the low-lying coastal plain, marked by distinctive geological features like Rocky Point, Gull Rock, and Twin Rocks. The interior is organized by a rigid grid of rural roads, including Rocky Point Rd NW and County Hwy-9, which serve the local agricultural and residential holdings. In the southernmost portion of the map, Willow Creek meanders toward the lake, providing a natural break in the engineered roadway network. This map documents the persistent settlement patterns and coastal access points in a region where the water of the lake dictates the local economy and geography.
