Room to spread out, woods all around and views of Reitz Lake. Lynwood has a country feel close to town.
Lynwood is on the southeast side of Waconia, off Klein Road just east of Engler Boulevard. It has about 30 single-family homes, rambler and traditional styles, on larger lots with views of Reitz Lake.
Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
What’s close by
Clearwater Mills Park, Klein Drive Park and Lake Waconia Regional Park are nearby, and downtown Waconia, a few minutes north, has restaurants, a brewery, shops and a community theater. See Waconia parks, trails and beaches and Waconia community life.
What buyers check before they tour
- Schools: Lynwood is served by Waconia Public Schools (ISD 110). Laketown Elementary is the closest school, and other options include Southview Elementary, Waconia Middle School and Waconia High School. Boundaries can change, so confirm the assigned schools for any address with the district.
- Larger lots: Ask about well and septic or city utilities, and any zoning rules for outbuildings.
- Condition: Roof, windows, mechanicals and drainage tell you more about a home’s next ten years than the paint color does. Plan a professional inspection.
A simple plan for your Lynwood move
I’ve been helping people sell and buy homes across the west metro and lake country for about two decades, and I started in the trades. I’ll look at a home the way a builder would and tell you plainly what I see.

If you’re selling and want repairs handled before buyers see them, Super Crew Contractors can give you an estimate. If you’re ready for something custom, Ivy Lane Homes does luxury home building and remodeling. And a quick coverage check with Intrinsic Insurance before closing can save you a surprise.
