Comments: The Lebanon Hills Visitor Center is located between McDonough and Schultz Lake. Ample parking is available at this location and it is a short walk to the fishing pier at McDonough. Dakota County Parks is planning improvements include a new fishing pier that will be ready for anglers at ice-out as well as winter aeration to keep fish alive thorugh the winter. This will allow a more stable fish population and will make it possible to stock predator species such as largemouth bass or northern pike into this lake.
