With only about 3,000 residents in the Deephaven real estate market, this town located along the banks of Lake Minnetonka is ideal for buyers looking for a small town atmosphere. The majority of Deephaven residents are in the upper middle class range and the homes reflect that as well. The Cottagewood neighborhood is where my family lives and we love it because it is right next to the Deephaven Elementary School where our daughter goes.
Another great thing about the Cottagewood neighborhood is that it is right next to the Meadowwoods Golf Course. I can simple walk to the course to enjoy an afternoon on the links in the cool Minnesota breeze. It’s one of my favorite things to do in Deephaven and I’ve been able to knock a few strokes off my game since we moved here just a few years ago.
