Interlachen Park blends country club tradition with neighborly spirit
Wedged between Edina and Hopkins, the Minneapolis suburb of Interlachen Park was first founded in 1911, shortly after the opening of the nearby Interlachen Country Club. Set against the lush backdrop of the golf course, today the neighborhood has blossomed into a community of established homes and friendly neighbors. “Everyone comes together for block parties. There’s an annual rummage sale, and people get really into trick-or-treating,” says Kevin Dunphy, a Realtor with Compass with over a decade of experience around Minneapolis. Though there’s no homeowners association, the Interlachen Park neighborhood association — best described by their motto of “good neighbors working together” — regularly hosts seasonal events, from a fall festival to weekly wintertime skate nights.
Interlachen Park Country Club has been in service since 1909 in Edina.
