Located by the popular Lake Minnetonka, the city of Shorewood is truly a beautiful place to live. With a population of over 7,000 residents, and a geographic area covering just over 5-square miles of land, the community of Shorewood is close-knit.

Shorewood is part of the western Minnesota metro, and is a member of Hennepin County.

The main route through the city is State Highway 7, which connects it with the larger suburban city of Minnetonka, and Interstate 494. Minneapolis is a 45 minute commute from the city, which is close enough for Shorewood’s residents to enjoy the big-city amenities, but far enough away to allow them to remain in a more charming and private community.
