A peaceful community tucked along the western edge of Lake Minnetonka.
Greenwood, Minnesota, is a small, peaceful lakeside community tucked along the western edge of Lake Minnetonka in Hennepin County, known for its wooded streets, charming homes, and close-knit, village feel. Surrounded by water and neighboring cities like Excelsior and Deephaven, Greenwood offers residents easy access to boating, beaches, and trails, while still being just a short drive from the Twin Cities. Its quiet setting and scenic shoreline give it a relaxed, retreat-like atmosphere that feels worlds away from the metro hustle.
Greenwood’s roots trace back to the late 1800s, when Lake Minnetonka became a popular summer resort destination and small residential enclaves began to form around the shoreline. The area was originally part of Excelsior Township before incorporating as the Village of Greenwood in 1956 to preserve its residential character and local governance. Over the decades, it has remained one of the lake’s smallest cities, intentionally maintaining its natural beauty, limited development, and strong sense of community.
