| Lake Minnetonka is one of the most heavily used
lake in the State of Minnesota, and perhaps in the entire United States.
On a busy July weekend, there can be as many as 10,000 boats on the lake,
for a density of about one boat every 1.4 acres.
The lake is shared by everything from kayaks and canoes to sailboats, fishing boats and runabouts, to large cruisers and charter boats. Because it is so heavily used, special rules apply to Lake Minnetonka. If you are going to boat (or snowmobile) on the lake, be sure you know these rules. You can download pamphlets at left that describe these special rules. Like the rest of the county, but especially for Minnetonka, many activities are regulated. Check here for details.
