Devil's Lake

A 355-acre lake, reaching 67 ft deep in Otter Tail County, Minnesota — large enough for wake boating where local rules allow.

Reviewed by WakeSurfSpots Editorial Team · Updated

Devil's Lake sits in Otter Tail County, Minnesota that covers about 355 acres and reaches roughly 67 ft at its deepest. It is on the smaller side, so usable wake-boat water depends heavily on local rules and traffic.

Public access is listed for the lake. Its typical warm-weather window runs June–August, based on Open-Meteo 2019–2023 daily-high climatology.

Devil's Lake appears here on the strength of its size and public access, not any reputation for surfing. Wake-boat regulation varies by state and by individual lake, so verify the Minnesota rules and the local ordinance first.
