Find information and inspiration to help you book more travel to Minnesota. St. Louis Park & Golden Valley offer the best of both worlds - small town charm AND big city excitement.
We’re passionate about our communities and we welcome the opportunity to show you, the travel professional, why St. Louis Park and Golden Valley truly are Minnesota’s Sweet Spot!
St. Louis Park, founded in 1852, is a thriving, established community that’s home to just over 50,000 residents. Its residential areas are diverse in social, religious and ethnic heritage. A leader in environmental stewardship, 11% of the city is dedicated to parks (52!) and trails throughout the community.
Golden Valley, established in 1886, shares a similar heritage, with nearly 23,000 residents calling Golden Valley home and over 15% of the city dedicated to parks and trails.
Both cities offer outstanding dining and entertainment options, plus an oasis of outdoor activities and other unique happenings to satisfy any itinerary. And with their convenient location as neighbors to Minneapolis, you’re only minutes away from some of the Twin Cities’ most attractive amenities: the Chain of Lakes, the downtown theater district, shopping, universities and major league teams.
