We'd love for our guests to experience some of our favorite local restaurants. For breakfast, head to The Original Pancake House and enjoy a delicious breakfast. The pancakes are a must! Pro tip: order a side of homemade whipped cream for your coffee. For lunch, we recommend Yum! Kitchen and Bakery. Don't skip the french fries:) If you're looking to enjoy lakeside dining, Charlie's on Prior Lake or Maynard's on Lake Minnetonka offer great food and views.
The Minnesota State Fair is one of the largest and most beloved fairs in the U.S., offering a perfect mix of food, live entertainment, agriculture, arts, and family-friendly fun. You can sample creative foods-on-a-stick, enjoy rides and games at the Midway, watch live music and competitions, and explore exhibits that celebrate Minnesota’s culture and creativity. It’s an energetic, welcoming event with something for everyone—well worth attending if you want a memorable true Minnesota experience!
Minnesota offers a fantastic golf scene. Take advantage of your time in Minnesota and enjoy a round of golf! Our favorite public courses are Rush Creek Golf Club, Chaska Town Course, and Edinburgh Golf Course. Book early as tee times fill up quickly!
Downtown Wayzata offers a relaxed, upscale lakeside vibe with plenty to do. You can stroll along Lake Street’s boutiques and cafés, enjoy scenic views of Lake Minnetonka from the Panoway boardwalk, or rent bikes and ride the Dakota Rail Regional Trail. Wayzata Beach is perfect for sunning or paddleboarding, and several waterfront restaurants and patios make it easy to end the day with good food and great views.
