Greenleaf Lake State Recreation Area, State recreation area in Meeker County, Minnesota.

This 385-acre natural space encompasses most of Greenleaf Lake and provides multiple access points for water activities and shoreline exploration.

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources established the recreation area in 2007 following local efforts to protect the natural shoreline from development.

The preservation of this space reflects Minnesota's commitment to maintaining public access to lakes and natural areas for future generations.

Visitors can access fishing docks, explore a one-mile trail, and observe wildlife while enjoying both Greenleaf Lake and Sioux Lake throughout the year.

The recreation area contains a peninsula and several islands between two lakes, supporting substantial waterfowl populations and offering prime fishing locations.
