As you head northwest from Alexandria through Garfield and Brandon, there is another cluster of lakes before you leave the county into lake-filled Ottertail County. Lakes with names like Chippewa, Whiskey, Moses and Aaron may not be as well know as those right in Alex, but they offer reasonable priced lake properties within ten to fifteen miles of the main city for those who want a little more peace and quiet.
The largest of the Northwest Douglas County lakes is Lake Christina in Melby, which also crosses the border into Grant County and adjoins Pelican Lake. Although, from a map, this may look like a great place to own a lake cabin because of its size, it is mainly a shallow lake and preserve ideal for waterfowl hunting. However, Pelican Lake – just south of Ashby – does have an abundance of recreational opportunities.
