About Dellwood
Dellwood is a quiet, wooded community with large lots and a rural feel — just minutes from White Bear Lake and Mahtomedi. It is the kind of place where you feel tucked away from everything while remaining conveniently close to everything the lake area offers.
Whether you are researching a move to the area, curious about a specific neighborhood, or just want to know more about the community, this guide covers the essentials — schools, lifestyle, and what makes Dellwood distinct from its neighbors.
