The City of Parkers Prairie is a small city with a lot to offer! Parkers Prairie is often referred to as “The Gateway to Otter Tail County” due to its location on the southeast edge of Otter Tail County. South of the downtown area, near Lake Adley, is The Adley, a beautiful event center that can host up to 500 people for meetings, weddings, and other events. The Adley is located next to our local hotel. The City has renovated streets and sidewalks; there are more than five miles of walking/biking paths that end at the scenic Lake Adley Park. Lake Adley Park has a public fishing pier and boat ramp, along with a large shelter and tent-camping areas that you can get a permit for. On the southern edge of town is the newly constructed Veteran's Memorial Park. Our north Lake Adley area has a wonderful fire ring and benches, with riprap lining the lakeshore. Taking a stroll through the downtown area, visitors are welcomed by friendly business owners and residents alike. The downtown streets are lined with an array of beautiful flowers and plants along the sidewalks. The downtown area leads to the large City Park and outdoor Aquatic Center. On the first full weekend of August, Parkers Prairie welcomes everyone for the Fall Festival, which is a super event that offers something for everyone!
