Make the Most of Your Minnetonka Stay

A suburban gateway to Minnesota's lake country

Minnetonka sits just 8 miles west of Minneapolis, where the sprawling 14,000-acre Lake Minnetonka shapes daily life and defines the city's character. This affluent suburb maintains over 81 miles of trails winding through preserved wetlands and mature forests. The city's name comes from the Dakota words meaning "great water," and that connection remains central to its identity, from public boat launches at Grays Bay Dam Park to lakeside estates along the shore.

Corporate campuses and refined dining

The Opus Business Park anchors Minnetonka's business district, housing major corporate headquarters including UnitedHealth Group. Business travelers will find the Ridgedale area convenient, with premium hotels near I-394 providing quick access to downtown Minneapolis and the airport. The dining scene balances upscale options like BLVD Kitchen & Bar and Spasso's house-made pastas with local spots such as Unmapped Brewing Co. and the Gold Nugget Tavern.

Positioning and access

While Minnetonka functions best with a rental car, its location offers strategic advantages for exploring the region. Minneapolis sits 20 minutes east, while Paisley Park and the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum are both within 15 minutes. The upcoming METRO Green Line Extension will connect the city directly to downtown Minneapolis via light rail.
