THE THIEF LAKE LAND BRIEF

Land in the
Lake Agassiz Plains setting.

Thief Lake township has 28.1 square miles of land in Marshall County. Its Census reference point is in Lake Agassiz Plains, within Lake Agassiz Plain.

The former bed of glacial Lake Agassiz forms an exceptionally flat plain in the Red River valley. Thick lake sediments overlie older glacial deposits across this historic prairie landscape.

Thief Lake and Marshall County

Thief Lake is associated with Marshall County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.

Marshall County

Thief Lake by land and water

The Census records 8.39 square miles of water within Thief Lake, or 23% of its total area. It is 20.9 percentage points higher than the 2.1% recorded for Marshall County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

For scale, Thief Lake township has 82.8% of the land area of nearby Moose River township (33.9 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.

FROM LOCAL CONTEXT TO YOUR PARCEL

Three questions for
Thief Lake land.

These starting questions follow this location’s jurisdiction, regional setting, and nearby geography. The answers come from the property itself.

Locate the parcel within Thief Lake

Use a tax bill, deed, or assessor’s parcel number to pin down the land in Thief Lake. Check the Marshall County geography against the actual property location.

Read the Lake Agassiz Plains setting

Lake Agassiz Plains belongs to Lake Agassiz Plain. What do the parcel's elevation and drainage records show, and how does its road access connect across the flat former lakebed?

Check the route, beyond Moose River

Moose River is 4.6 miles east of the Thief Lake reference point. That geographic proximity does not establish a drivable route or legal access. Which road reaches your land, and is the right to use it recorded?

QUESTIONS GROUNDED IN THIS PLACE

Your Thief Lake
land questions.

Have a tax bill, an inherited deed, or simply a map pin? Start with what you have.

What should I send for land in Thief Lake?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Marshall County. Thief Lake’s 28.1 square miles of land include many different property situations; the exact parcel is what we review.

Is every Thief Lake property in Lake Agassiz Plains?+

No. Lake Agassiz Plains is the regional classification at the Census reference point. The Thief Lake boundary and individual properties can cross landscape transitions. Open the regional source and the topographic map, then locate the actual parcel before applying regional context.

Can I use Moose River as a reference for my land?+

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 4.6 miles east of Thief Lake’s. That distance is not a driving route, utility connection, or comparable-sale adjustment. Share the actual access road and parcel records so we can review your property on its own facts.

Can I request an offer without being near Thief Lake?+

Yes. Begin online with the property location and ownership details. Tell Larry G and the team what you know about the land, access, and any co-owners. We review the parcel before deciding whether to propose a purchase; if a sale moves forward, the closing company can explain remote signing arrangements.
