Stowe Lake

A 377-acre lake, reaching 14 ft deep in Douglas County, Minnesota — large enough for wake boating where local rules allow.

Reviewed by WakeSurfSpots Editorial Team · Updated

Located in Douglas County, Minnesota, Stowe Lake is a public lake that covers about 377 acres and reaches roughly 14 ft at its deepest. Being a smaller lake, any wake-boat use hinges on the local ordinance and how busy the water is.

The lake has at least one public access point. Its typical warm-weather window runs June–August, based on Open-Meteo 2019–2023 daily-high climatology.

Because this entry comes from public lake data rather than rider reports, treat it as a size-and-access reference, not a recommendation. Confirm the current Minnesota statewide rules and any lake-specific restrictions before riding.
