2024-2025 Guide to Martin County

AND LIVE, ALL YEAR ROUND
SUMMER (JUNE – AUGUST)
Where better to enjoy the lazy days of
summer than on the shores and waters
of one of Martin County’s many lakes?
Enjoy scenic views from a boat, canoe or
kayak. Catch a fish or two on your fishing
boat or one of our many public docks.
Local area swimming pool facilities can be
enjoyed by adults swimming laps or kids
playing. Check out the amazing, Fairmont
Aquatic park! Hiking, biking and golfing
continue on from the spring months, as
well as the opportunity for a round of disc
golf. Fairmont has three, 18-hole disc golf
courses – players throw plastic discs into a
series of metal baskets – all conveniently
located at Cedar Creek Park. On the Fourth of July, witness the dazzling firework
show over Lake Sisseton. Don’t forget to witness a summer sunset over one of
our many lakes!
SEASONAL RECREATION
FALL (SEPTEMBER – NOVEMBER)
This is the perfect time to take in the magnificence
and beauty of autumn’s changing colors. Vibrant
shades of green make way for deep reds, warm
oranges, and gold, creating a spectacular backdrop
from which to enjoy fall activities. Pick up some
sweet and juicy apples from one of two local
orchards, or grab some cider or delicious homemade
pies. (www.CenterCreekOrchard.com and www.

Go for a scenic drive around the lakes and
into our surrounding countryside and parks, or
head out onto the water to enjoy the pre-winter
rays of sunshine. This is also a popular season
for hunters, who travel to Martin County to take
advantage of the water fowl, white-tail deer and
pheasants that gather in the region. You can
also get some target practice in at the Fairmont
Trap Club’s shooting range.
