Cherry Creek, located in Le Sueur, Minnesota, is a state-regulated water resource managed by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources - Environmental and Water Resources Division. This concrete grade stabilization dam, standing at a height of 8 feet, serves the primary purpose of stabilizing the surrounding area. With a storage capacity of 100 acre-feet and a drainage area of 33 square miles, Cherry Creek plays a vital role in managing water flow and preventing erosion in the region.

Despite its low hazard potential and satisfactory condition assessment, Cherry Creek has not undergone any modifications since it was last inspected in November 2015. The dam's emergency action plan status and risk management measures are currently unlisted, indicating a potential area for improvement in terms of preparedness and mitigation strategies. As a key structure in the St. Paul District, maintaining Cherry Creek's functionality and safety remains essential for water resource and climate enthusiasts alike to ensure the continued protection of the surrounding environment and communities.
