The Minikahda Club
About the club
Something was in the air in Minneapolis and St. Paul in the 1920s. Call it an esprit de refaire (French for “repair”). Many of the prominent clubs in the market looked at their existing golf courses and thought, “we can do better.” The Twin Cities were an incubator for the first major movement of golf course reformation as courses laid out just years before by designers like Tom Bendelow, William Watson and Willie Park, Jr., were redesigned, most of them by Donald Ross. Interlachen (No. 1), White Bear Yacht Club (No. 4), The Club at Golden Valley (No. 15), Minneapolis G.C. and others. The Minikahda Club also falls into this category. Robert Foulis designed the original nine, and Watson was involved in some capacity, too. Then the club hired Donald Ross to completely revamp the course after Chick Evans dismantled the old design in the 1916 U.S. Open, shooting a then-record 286 using just seven clubs. Many more renovations ensued, but the club has perhaps settled on a lasting version after the work of Kyle Franz, who continued a program of thinning overgrowth, widening fairways and recreating bunker shapes and arrangements reminiscent of the club’s 1920s heyday.

We recently had the opportunity to work a wedding at Minikahda Country Club, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The venue itself is stunning — from the historic architecture to the perfectly maintained grounds and beautiful views, it creates such an elegant backdrop for a wedding day. If you’re looking for a venue in the Twin Cities that blends timeless charm with exceptional service, Minikahda Country Club is truly one of the best.

I am the owner of Celisia Stanton Photography, and one of my clients held their wedding at The Minikahda Club last year. The getting-ready room is a wedding couple AND photographer's dream as the giant windows, delicate white curtains, stunning landscape paintings, and elegant chandeliers made for the most beautiful backdrop!! The outdoor natural backdrop made me almost forget we were in the middle of the city, and made for beautiful wedding party and family photos. Highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a Minneapolis wedding with a nature-forward, elegant feel!
