Cedar Lake is a lake in Aitkin County, Minnesota, in the United States.
The lake is named Gaa-miskwaawaakokaag in Ojibwe meaning "Place abundant with red cedars" after the red cedar which grew there.[1] In early maps, this lake was recorded in French as Lac cèdre rouge inférieur (Lower Red Cedar Lake),[2] opposed to Cass Lake known in French as Lac du Cedre Rouge, and English as Upper Red Cedar Lake.[3]
