Pheasant Lake is a public lake in Dickey County, North Dakota that covers about 234 acres. Being a smaller lake, any wake-boat use hinges on the local ordinance and how busy the water is.

No public access point is listed, so confirm how (and whether) you can legally launch.

This listing is drawn from state lake records — it reflects size and access, not a track record as a wakesurf venue.
