Centered around the communities of Brooklyn Park and Roseville, the North Metro region offers a wealth of exceptional golf courses, led by the legendary Edinburgh USA. Family activities are another big draw to the area, such as the unique wave pool at Bunker Hills Regional Park, one of several parks/nature centers in the area.

The North Metro region is also home to great shopping opportunities such as Rosedale Center and Har Mar Mall in Roseville, and The Shoppes at Arbor Lakes in Maple Grove, plus fun community theater and arts. Lodging in the area is fine, plentiful and affordable.
