Nett Lake is a census-designated place in St. Louis and Koochiching Counties, Minnesota. The Census Bureau puts its internal point at 48.114619, -93.081069 and its land area at 1.72 square miles. Septic permitting and record keeping happen at the county level, not the census-designated place level, which is why every figure below is attributed to the county and linked back to the county page it came from.

Our collection for St. Louis County, Minnesota is small, at 2,188 septic records. Treat it as a starting point for a Nett Lake property rather than a search that settles the question. The county is genuinely mixed: 32,836 of 83,414 classified parcels are on septic and the rest are sewered. Which side of that line a Nett Lake address falls on is worth establishing before anything else. The county publishes a records portal, but reaching the documents needs an account or a login, so budget for that step rather than expecting an open search.
