White Bear Lake

White Bear Lake is best known in Minnesota for its namesake lake, a large urban lake on the northeastern edge of the Twin Cities. Set northeast of Saint Paul, the city is closely tied to the water: parks, a marina and shorefront neighborhoods make the lake central to daily life and seasonal recreation. Boating, sailing, angling and winter activities on the ice reflect the rhythms of a place shaped by Minnesota’s changing seasons. Downtown White Bear Lake has local shops and restaurants, while the Lakeshore Players Theatre maintains a community arts presence. Rail connections encouraged the town’s development in the late 19th century, but the lake remains its defining feature.
