The area is split between Ramsey and Washington counties and has a wider selection of housing styles and price points than many suburbs in the region. Downtown, you can find everything from upscale restaurants to casual cafes and plenty of shops.

You can head to White Bear Lake County Park to swim or relax on the beach.
Away from the water, Lakewood Hills Park has an 18-hole disc golf course, a zip-line and a hill used for sledding each winter. Many residents get excited about the arrival of cold weather. “People drive on the lakes here; they go out ice fishing,” says Joel Friday, a Realtor with Keller Williams Classic Realty. “It's a whole different thing. Occasionally, they'll do a polar plunge. You know, cut a hole into the ice and jump into the water.”
