After reading many reviews of local activities to get ideas for group activities when some out-of-town guests came to visit, we and our guests set off for a not-insignificant drive to Mound. During the drive I wondered if I had made a mistake but rest assured, it is worth the drive. The mini-golf course is 14 holes versus a traditional 18, but each one is so creative and unique that it is totally worth it. And after the mini-golf .... the sculptures! There are some really incredible and unique sculptures out here in essentially a field in the middle of nowhere. And after the sculptures, farm animals! Donkeys, goats, horses, cows!
Not to mention that the course and sculptures present numerous photo opportunities for anyone so inclined.
We are so glad we made the drive to try this and will absolutely return

This historic rail trail rolls through some of the most expensive real estate in Minnesota. It goes behind the original Tonka Toys factory and is totally paved. We made it from Wayzata to half way around Lake Waconia and came back, It was 15.5 miles one way for the part that we did, it continues out to western Minnesota, Very smooth, very beautiful and an easy ride. Loved it. The first 13 miles are maintained by The Three Rivers Park District and the remainder by Carver County, It goes by several wineries including Sovereign Lake which was closed this late in the year,

Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon. Ordered three Grumpy Burgers (double patty, choice of cheese, lettuce, tomato, bacon, Canadian bacon, mayo) baskets w/ fries. A pint & two rum & cokes. Good pours. Burgers very good. Service great (attractive, attentive & sharp). Worth a stop.

We attended an all-evening wedding reception aboard what appeared to be a brand new yacht.
Absolutely gorgeous, everything was polished and spotlessly clean. Service of champagne and bartenders were absolutely flawless. Food was good for a buffet.
The cruise on Lake Minnetonka took us out and past many very high-value homes.
Loved it. Best charter we have been on.

PaddleTap is a custom boat tour company! Roughly 25 to 30 feet in length, with "paddle" stations where you physically move the boat using a custom paddle wheel. There is a table/bar in the middle with coolers that can store your favorite beverage. We have a backup gas motor that is used as needed! Private tours ranging from 10-24 total guests! Located on Lake Minnetonka! The best form of fun possible! PaddleTap has a LazyTap (double deck party pontoon) that is new in 2018. Try that out if Paddling isn't your thing!
We booked the Paddletap with a group of good friends. We had an awesome time! The views of Lake Minnetonka were amazing and the boat was a lot of fun. We paddled some and let the motor do the rest! The captains were really friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend taking the tour.....you won't regret it! We also had dinner at Lord Fletcher's before we paddled....very good!

Chanhassen Dinner Theatres is the nation’s largest Equity (professional status) dinner theatre company featuring multiple stages under one roof. In addition, CDT is Minnesota’s only year-round musical theatre and the largest tourist attraction in Carver County. Founded in 1968, Chanhassen is a producing theatre, completely creating and executing all production elements in the theatres’ own on-site scene, costume and properties shops by its own creative design team led by Resident Artistic Director Michael Brindisi.
We have been going since 1973. It might be personal preference but there are some plays that are better than others. But the Acting is 100% entertaining! Every show the actors interact with the audiences. The closer you sit to center stage the more of a chance you'll be part of the show. Four stars is for the food. It's always a good idea to ask the server what he or she might recommend. Our Chicken was over cooked but the steaks and fish were spot on. The can beer was out dated. Water glasses never go dry.
Sister Act production was amazing. The play is a rewrite from the original movie but the story line was the same with different songs.
Photo and video is a mortal sin but asked before the show if your guest is evolved in the show if you can take picture of your friend/family member.

I used a 16 foot fishing boat rental for an afternoon of fishing with my daughter in mid-septermber. The boat was in very good shape, the motor ran perfectly and the weather even managed to cooperate and a beautiful day of fishing on Lake Minnetonka was the result. The sunnies even cooperated when we found the right spot. We fished until our two tubs of wax worms were gone and since we did catch and release I did buy dinner afterwards. The staff at the dock knew what they were doing and were very helpful.
