The Meadows at Mystic Lake opened in 2000 as part of the Mystic Lake Casino Hotel complex in Prior Lake, Minnesota, approximately twenty-five miles southwest of Minneapolis. The course was designed by Garrett Gill and Paul Miller, who routed the layout across rolling prairie terrain characteristic of the region's glacial landscape. The property features native grasses, wetlands, and mature hardwoods that frame many holes, with elevation changes that are modest but strategically significant in the context of Minnesota golf. The design emphasizes width off the tee while requiring precision on approach shots to greens that are often elevated or protected by bunkers and natural hazard areas. Several holes play along or across wetland corridors, and the routing takes advantage of natural contours to create variety in stance and shot-making demands. The course stretches to over 7,000 yards from the back tees, though multiple tee boxes accommodate different skill levels. As part of a casino resort operated by the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, The Meadows serves both resort guests and public daily-fee players. The facility includes a full practice area and clubhouse amenities typical of upscale public golf in the Twin Cities market. The course has hosted regional amateur events and remains a notable option for golfers seeking a championship-length layout in the southern Twin Cities suburbs, where the combination of native prairie aesthetics and modern resort infrastructure distinguishes it from older parkland courses in the area.
