A jump off place for travelers on the Hennepin Canal Parkway and Grand Illinois Trail, Mineral is also home to the Cozy Country Cottage. Trail users will find the cottage a great place to stay for a day, weekend, or longer. With its close proxinimity to the canal, one can return for lunch or an afternoon snooze. Best of all is evening time when soaking in the jacuzzi with candles and refreshments takes care of any muscle strains from the day.

If you don’t feel like cooking, enjoy the nearby Wagon Wheel Bar & Grill for one of their famous Wagon Burgers, delicious chicken, prime rib, fish, or daily specials. During warm weather try the patio dining! The Wagon Wheel’s casual atmosphere and great service is available from early in the day till evening closing. Open 7 days a week, canal visitors make it a must stop.
