Location
Get Directions
Medicine Lake is settled in northern Minnesota and offers the feeling of living in a holiday getaway, and yet this town is just minutes from Downtown Minneapolis. Residents enjoy the benefits of small-town living and a natural outdoor setting while taking advantage of the thriving big-city environment that surrounds them. The motto “Where water meets sky” is a literal description of Medicine Lake’s location on a peninsula jutting into a lake of the same name and aptly conveys the population’s appreciation for the great outdoors. The town may be small, but the close-knit community likes it that way. Many residents head to the Downtown Plymouth nearby for diverse dining and entertainment. Medicine Lake appeals to folks looking for a peaceful, safe neighborhood. Outdoor lovers will appreciate the enveloping wildlife, and outgoing individuals will enjoy the friendly, interactive locals.
