(And if you are a little antsy, there are nearby attractions like Paisley Park, Valleyfair, Canterbury Park, and the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum to consider, too.) And while the casino still is a main draw, the other events and features did make a good case. The entire weekend seemed to have the two-fold purpose of both showing off the Mystic Lake Center (which opened at the beginning of the year) and letting us experience Mystic Lake as not just a casino but as a “campus,” as all of its representatives called it.
I spent an event- and food-filled weekend June 1-3 at Mystic Lake Casino Hotel in Prior Lake largely for free thanks to a generous invitation to their Experience Mystic weekend, and by the end of it, I felt quite content and spoiled.
