Minnetonka

Minnetonka’s story began in the mid-1800s when settlers were drawn to its beautiful setting along Minnehaha Creek. Many of the early residents came from New England and the East Coast, bringing with them farming knowledge, especially raspberry cultivation, that helped shape the area's agricultural success and even influenced nearby Hopkins. Today, Minnetonka blends this rich heritage with vibrant neighborhoods, natural beauty, and a strong sense of community, making it a welcoming place to call home.
