Local / Regional Events & Things to Check

Here are some events in the Twin Cities / broader local area around that time you could pair with your time by the lake:

Even when specific scheduled events are light, the Lake Minnetonka area offers good opportunities for enjoyable activities:

Boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, sailing — the lake itself is an attraction.
Walking / biking trails around the lake, local parks (e.g. Purgatory Park).
Historic sites & tours — Burwell House is a local historic spot listed in “things to do” in Minnetonka.
Local shops, galleries, cafés in lakeside towns such as Excelsior, Wayzata, Spring Park
Dine with a view — restaurants along the lakefront
Fall colors & leaf peeping — end of September and early October is prime for fall foliage in Minnesota
