Gordie Mikkelson Wildlife Management Area

Score4.2

Rural wetland, prairie and oak-savanna mosaics offering waterfowl, songbirds and open-sky landscapes. Best for dawn/sunset color, mist over ponds in spring/fall and seasonal migration. Small parking off 224th Ave NE; trails are informal—wear waterproof boots and insect protection. No special entry fee but follow local WMA rules (check MN DNR). Weekdays and early mornings reduce disturbance and crowds.
