Alimagnet Lake is a lake in Dakota County, in the U.S. state of Minnesota.[1][2] The lake stands at the border of Apple Valley and Burnsville within the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area.[3][4] The name Alimagnet is supposedly a portmanteau derived from the first names of Alice McQuillen, Margaret "Maggie" Davis, and Nettie Judd, three young girls who were playing near the yet unnamed lake in the 1860s when surveyors asked their names and subsequently named the lake after them.[5]
Alimagnet Park
The surrounding forestland is a public park.[6][7]
