Nothing beats spending time by the water while you're on vacation. Enjoy a picnic at Mystic Lake and then hang around for an impressive sunset.
You'll be spoiled for sightseeing choice when staying in Prior Lake. Mystic Lake is an ideal place to begin here, but there are lots of other fine spots to explore. Mystic Lake Casino, Valleyfair Amusement Park, and Canterbury Park are not far from the body of water and will fill in your day nicely.
