Crosslake is located in Crow Wing County, Minnesota, and is considered to be the unofficial gateway to the Whitefish Chain of Lakes. The Whitefish Chain is made up of 14 bodies of water, many of which fall within Crosslake or Pequot Lakes city limits; which leads it to be the most popular waterfront destination in Crosslake. However, there are many significant lakes that lie within its area, including Little Pine Lake, Daggett Lake, Goodrich Lake, O'Brien Lake, Velvet Lake, Greer Lake, Big Bird Lake, Pine Lake, and, of course, Cross Lake.
Crosslake can be accessed 30 minutes north of Brainerd, and 2 and a half hours north of Minneapolis. Crosslake itself lies between two north-south transit routes: State Highway 6, and State Highway 371. 30 minutes north of Crosslake, one can enter the Chippewa National Forest, and the vast system of parks beyond which extends all the way to Canada.
Students of Crosslake, MN are typically enrolled in Pequot Lakes or Crosby school districts, but also have the opportunity to attend Crosslake Community Charter School.
