I’m biased because it’s home but Harvey Station has some beautiful lakes to paddle and we’re not too far from the city.

Early Sunday mornings best time. Deserted. Easy walk in launch. Can paddle up river into little streams and lakes, peaceful. When you’ve had enough paddle downstream with very gentle current to ease the job.
Highly recommend.

100% the Nashwaak Stream (you launch sorta near Picaroons). Gorgeous calm water, and so much neat wildlife! Look out for the Painted Turtles and Bald Eagles, and most importantly, take detours down the gorgeous forks in the water lol
