Who are we?
Located in northeastern Crow Wing County, Minnesota, the Island Mud Lake Property Owners Association or IMLPOA was established in 1979 to provide property owners around Island and Mud Lakes a means to get to know others in the area, to address common concerns and to provide a forum for discussion of issues concerning the lakes.

​
The Board appreciates input from all residents regarding our lake area issues. To help keep the community informed there is an annual meeting and picnic as well as a couple of informational mailings per year.
