Arnie Linder and Chris Drake, two adjacent property owners share nearly 200 feet of shoreline on Gervais Lake. Keller Parkway, a residential road, separates the property owners' homes and the shoreline.

These properties were selected as a shoreland demonstration site for the Ramsey-Washington County Metro Watershed District.
