Lake Minnetonka comprises over 14,000 acres in Minnesota, and is a scenic tourist destination for many travelers seeking a serene environment for vacationing. The lake derives its name from the first residents of the area, who referred to the body of water as Minnetonka, or Big Water. In 1852, Alexander Ramsey officially registered the name of Lake Minnetonka, and in the following year, the first hotel was built on its shores. Steamboats surveying the lake became popular among tourists in the 1880s, allowing visitors to the area to experience the abundant wildlife and beautiful scenery of this picturesque area. Today, Twin Cities Cruises continues this tradition with its Lake Minnetonka pleasure cruises, offering guests a traditional paddleboat excursion and three exclusive luxury yacht options to choose among.
Paradise Destiny II
Capable of carrying up to 100 passengers, Twin Cities Cruises’ Paradise Destiny II offers a luxurious way to see the sights of Lake Minnetonka in style. The Paradise Destiny II is available for weddings and receptions, and both decks boast floor-to-ceiling windows providing magnificent views for passengers. Formal dining is available at an additional charge, and the dance floor and buffet area are designed to make any outing special.
Paradise Princess II
For a more intimate tour of the Lake, the Paradise Princess II offers a smaller venue for weddings, receptions, and sightseeing excursions. A small dance floor and buffet are available on-board, and guests enjoy complimentary snacks during their tour of Lake Minnetonka. The Paradise Princess II can carry 60 guests in luxurious comfort.
Paradise Grand
With room enough for up to 60 passengers, the Paradise Grand is a lovely way to see the beautiful natural scenery of Lake Minnetonka. Like all yachts in the Twin Cities Cruises line, the Paradise Grand offers a climate controlled salon and fully-stocked bar and is available for weddings.
Wedding ceremonies on board these yachts are restricted to forty guests; a beautifully appointed area is also available on shore for larger weddings. Full bar service is provided on each of the yacht tours and LCD televisions with DVD and VCR players are available for use on board. All three yachts are available for charter; prices are available from Twin Cities Cruises on request.
Looking for a memorable way to celebrate your wedding, reception, anniversary or just looking to take a relaxing cruise on Lake Minnetonka we can help you.
