Dawson is a progressive community located in the prairies of west central Minnesota striving to maintain
a quality of life surpassed by none. Dawson excels with excellent school and health care systems, promotion
of new industry and the support of existing businesses.
This community is blessed with many active and caring people which have supported the parks, golf course,
and the new aquatic center providing recreation to both young and old alike. The Dawson/Boyd Arts Center
satisfies our appetite for the arts and theater.
The Lac qui Parle River flows through the community providing an environment of quiet and stress free
living. Dawson’s walking trail is located adjacent to the river encompassed by trees, flowers, and
native vegetation providing a sanctuary for everything and everyone.
Beautiful homes, well kept lawns and gardens are a common sight in Dawson. From the renovation of older
homes, the building of new homes, apartments and townhouses Dawson offers a variety of fine living.
We invite you to visit. You won’t want to leave.
