aerial of Lake Le Homme Dieu

"Lake Le Homme Dieu is one of the most beautiful sheets of water in America" a writer in National Geographical Magazine wrote some time ago. The north shore area, called Interlachen Park, was named after Interlaken, Switzerland, which means between the lakes. The naming of Lakes Carlos and Le Homme Dieu have been hard nuts to crack. In Dr. Warren Upham's book on geographical names in Minnesota, he says that G. A. Kortshch wrote him that they were named by Glendy King, an early homesteader in that area. King named Carlos and Le Homme Dieu for his two friends at West Point Academy. Le Homme Dieu means 'man of God' in French. The proper spelling is L'homme Dieu with a pronunciation of "lumm due" but the majority of locals pronounce it "la homma due".
