LaunchPad Golf The Meadows opened to the public on Saturday, Oct. 4.

Operated by the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, the new entertainment venue is located next to Mystic Lake Casino Hotel and will provide year-round daytime and late-night entertainment seven days a week and feature tech-driven driving range experience.

Golfers of all skill levels can be entertained in a lively, family-friendly atmosphere. LaunchPad Golf has 40 heated golf suites, a 243-yard driving range, two bars, a full-service restaurant with a chef-crafted menu and over 50 televisions. The new two-story, 25,000-square-foot location employs radar technology on its 160,000 square-foot driving range for state-of-the-art ball tracking. Additional features include virtual courses, golf practice and social competitions.

A full-service restaurant is part of the operation and guests can enjoy fine dining or a specialty cocktail without a golf reservation.

“We’re excited to expand beyond The Meadows at Mystic Lake golf course and welcome golfers of all abilities to enjoy year-round, top-of-the-line entertainment at LaunchPad Golf The Meadows,” said SMSC Chairman Cole W. Miller. “Building on our legacy of creating premier golf destinations, the grand opening of this unique venue is exciting not just for our tribe, but for the region.”

LaunchPad Golf is a Canadian company with two existing locations that are also located alongside nationally renowned golf courses. LaunchPad Golf The Meadows is its first expansion into the United States market.
