Red Wing, MN Resort Offers Seasonal Golf & Trekking Packages Spa Packages Available Year Round 

 

Red Wing, MN - Spring has arrived in Red Wing and the St. James Hotel is offering Golf and Trekking recreational packages to entice visitors to southern Minnesota to get outside to enjoy the area’s bountiful natural resources. Minnesota has more golfers per capita than any other state, with nearly 500 courses to enjoy from April through October.

 

The Red Wing area has its fair share of beautifully manicured public and private courses, and the St. James has partnered with two of them to encourage guests to get the winter kinks out of their swing and enjoy nature at its best. The golf packages include an 18-hole round of golf for two, with cart at Mississippi National Golf Links or the Red Wing Golf Club. Transportation to the courses is also available. Golf packages are priced from $199 per couple. Single supplement rates are also available.

 

The St. James Hotel’s ideal location on the Mississippi River also puts it very near the Cannon Valley Trail, one of Minnesota’s most scenic bike trails, stretching 20 miles from Red Wing to Cannon Falls. Our Trekking Package is priced from $159 per couple and includes two rental bicycles and helmets from Wheelhouse Cycle bike shop and two all-day Cannon Valley Trail passes. Both packages include a deluxe guest room for two at the St. James, breakfast for two in the Veranda Café, a $10 certificate to Jimmy’s Pub, complimentary morning coffee or tea in the historic lobby and free enclosed parking.
