Lochness Park is a nearly-ninety acre park in Blaine. Does Lochness Lake have its own monster? I found no proof that there isn’t one. So maybe? I think its worth checking out, but bring a fishing pole. The lake is a designated kids pond by the Minnesota DNR. Other family-friendly amenities include miles of trails, a disc golf course. This park has off-street parking at both entrances. There are port-a-potties on site.

Fishing Lochness Lake With Kids
The Minnesota DNR believes that “Youth are the future of Natural Resources,” and have created a fishing program to encourage kids to take up the sport. As part of this, it has identified Fishing in the Neighborhood (“FiN”) Ponds that it believes are ideal for beginner fishing. Lochness Lake is among these. Learn more about the program here.
