Minnesota Gated Communities - Don’t Fence Me In/Out? 2007-06-22 22:31:00
The term “gated’ community can conjure up strong reactions and opinions. These opinions are probably the same that were expressed when a medieval developer put up the first moated castle. (more…) Read more:Communities

Lake Waconia Report, Carver County MN 2007-07-03 21:06:05
Lake Waconia is the gem of CarverCounty
!
Lakeshore real estate options on the Waconia MLS offer everything from townhomes to older homes to multi-million dollar lake home estates. There are usually a few older single family homes available on Lake Street that were built in the 1950’s. At the time of this post there were seven lakefront homes for sale, at an average asking price of $912,671.
If you are looking for a nice, newer home and a lakeshore lifestyle, you may want to consider deeded access. For many buyers, this is a more affordable and realistic option; you can enjoy the lake without the extra upkeep, real estate taxes, and high home prices! Check out Waconia Landing! This neighborhood is conveniently located in the southwest corner of the lake, still very close to the main part of town, and claims its own private beach and day dock!
Right now, there are seven homes available in Waconia Landing, at an average asking price of $448,487, with an average of 2917 finish

Summer in Minneapolis means Lake Harriet! 2007-07-07 10:19:13
Bikes. Roller Blades. Sailboats. Kids feeding the ducks. Rose garden. Trolley ride. Popcorn and ice cream. Picnics. Beach. Bandshell. Common mental images of Lake Harriet for all of us. Why can’t it always be summer?
This 335 acre lake in south Minneapolis
has a 2.7 mile shorelength ringed by paved trails, and is the perfect size for jogging. There are also a second trail for bikes and roller blades so you don’t get run over.
Lake Harriet Bandshell, South Minneapolis.
Walleye are alive and well here. Who’da thunk it? And, they are getting bigger too! According to the DNR, average sizes are 3.3 pounds. Not bad for a city lake. Walleyes get active here later in the day, but unfortunately, Minneapolis prohibits fishing after midnight. With the exception of the east lakeshore, Harriet gets very deep very fast (up to 87 feet) so you should chase them right along the weedline. You will have the best luck with live bait here.
Panfish, anyone? Check out Read more:Summer
Merry Trout Fishing on Christmas Lake (Chanhassen and Shorewood) 2007-07-19 00:19:49
Yup, there’s rainbow trout in that lake! Who whudda thunk it? Maybe I need a trout fishing category for my “Best Minnesota Lakes for Fishing
” pages.
This lake is the biggest surprise for fishing around here. You might miss the turn-off from Hwy 7, and many folks don’t even know the lake exists. It’s well hidden from all roads, and looks very private and inaccessible. Not so! Beyond all of those trees, there is a wonderful public concrete access ramp with seven trailer spaces. Some of the local kids walk down to the dock with worms and ten-dollar fishing poles that say “Simpsons” or “Spider Man” (they work just fine, by the way) and have much success snagging bluegills and pumpkinseeds.
Here’s a rainbow trout found in its ideal habitat of rice and onions.
The size and depth of this lake is also a surprise. It’s 257 acres and drops off quickly at the northeast corner to a depth of 87 feet!! What is unusual about th Read more:Christmas
