Burandt Lake is a lake in Carver County, Minnesota, bordering the city of Waconia.[1] It is 97 acres in size and approximately 24 feet deep at its deepest point.[2] It was named for Adolph Burandt, a local farmer.[3]

The lake once was characterized by high levels of phosphorus that caused algae blooms, a situation that became the subject of remediation efforts that were underway by 2016.[4]
