About Angle Inlet
Angle Inlet is a census-designated place (CDP) and unincorporated community in Angle Township, Lake of the Woods County, Minnesota, United States. Its population was 54 as of the 2020 census. The community is part of the Northwest Angle, the only place in the contiguous United States north of the 49th parallel; it is the northernmost census-designated place in the contiguous United States. Fort Saint Charles, built by French explorers in 1732, is nearby on Magnuson's Island.
Angle Inlet has the last active one-room school in Minnesota and a post office with a sign stating that it is the "Most Northerly P.O. in Contiguous U.S." Angle Inlet is only accessible year-round by paved road from Manitoba, Canada, with an ice road connecting the town to the United States built when conditions allow in the winter.
The town's economy is built around tourism - mainly fishing, ice fishing, snowmobiling, and boating. Its location on Lake of the Woods provides access for fishermen seeking walleye, crappie, lake trout, and northern pike.
The inlet also has a small air strip serviced by Lake Country Air.
