Big Eagle Lake Improvement Association

Big Eagle Lake Improvement Association "Eagle" is the official name, but most people call it “Big” Eagle Lake. There may be a couple of reasons for the "Big" that has been added to its name.

First, it is the largest lake in Sherburne County, MN and is located less than 20 miles from another "Eagle Lake" (which most call "Little Eagle"). Secondly, the lake is approximately 4 miles north of the city of Big Lake, MN (which is the home of "Big" Lake). Two different townships share Big Eagle Lake. The northern 2/3 of the lake is in Orrock Township and the southern 1/3 is in Big Lake Townsh

ip. The towns of Orrock and Big Lake are both about 3-4 miles to the north and south respectively. In addition, Big Eagle Lake is located just minutes away from the Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge and the Sand Dunes State Forest.

🍦 Join us at Culver’s of Monticello tonight! 🍔
We’ll be there 4–8 PM enjoying delicious food, sweet treats, and great conversation with our neighbors. Come drive-through, stop by, say hello, and share a little community time.

Tonight’s Flavor of the Day: Snickers Swirl — rich chocolatey frozen custard with peanut butter and a hint of caramel. It’s as good as it sounds.

See you tonight!
