Platte Lake is a lake in the U.S. state of Minnesota.[1] Platte Lake is the source of the Platte River, hence the name.[2] The nearby Platte Lake Township took its name from the lake.
Platte Lake is located in the Crow Wing and Morrison Counties of north-central Minnesota, six miles northeast of the town of Harding at the north end of the Mississippi River-Sartell Watershed. Platte Lake has four inlets and one outlet, which classifies it as a drainage lake. The Platte River flows through the lake and provides a broad connection to Sullivan Lake. The Platte River then eventually joins the Mississippi River.[3]
