Thank you for exploring Lino Lakes, a growing community located about 20 minutes north of either downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul. As our name implies, there are thirteen lakes for you to enjoy - plus a number of great parks, trails, and other outdoor attractions guaranteed to help retain our town's natural setting and wildlife habitat. The Rice Creek Chain County Regional Park is a 2,550 acre park reserve located on a on beautiful George Watch Lake that hosts the Wargo Nature Center and Rice Creek Campground. Lino Lakes contains numerous city parks and trails which guarantee our town will maintain its natural settings and wildlife habitat and nearby Chomonix Golf Course offers the most scenic round of golf in the Twin Cities with elegant banquet facilities available in the Blue Heron Room. It's no surprise that the City of Lino Lakes won the Minnesota Environmental Initiative Award this year for the best environmental project in the Green Building and Development category.
History of the Blue Heron Days Festival: 1st held in 2004, the name was chosen for Lino Lakes' greatest asset, the 2nd largest Blue Heron rookery in the state. It is no surprise that the Blue Heron is the city logo as it symbolizes our community's natural beauty and amenities. Each year our festival brings families out to enjoy new and different activies and events.
Location, Location, Location! - Lino Lakes is located just south of the northern I-35 split. We're close to all of the amenities of the Twin Cities metro area without the sprawl and hassle found in other suburban communities. The natural setting provides a relaxed atmosphere and the ease of access provides for the necessities of life.
Lino Lakes Quick Facts: Three business parks offer access and visibility from both I-35W and I-35E. The city's economic development efforts produced a considerable increase in new business establishments over the past few years - including Super Target, Kohl's, and plans for a new mixed-use downtown development that includes a YMCA and retail, office and entertainment facilities.
