Comments: McKusick Lake is located in Stillwater. The lake has shorefishing access points along the walking path on the north and west sides of the lake. There is also a place to launch a canoe from on the east end. Fishing from shore can be challenging at some places due to cattails and other vegetation. FiN worked with the Rotary Club, McKusick Lake Association and City of Stillwater to install a new fishing pier in 2014.
