About the Community of Chaska

Located on the Minnesota River in the southwestern metro area, with high-quality industrial parks and well-controlled but progressive growth. Within its limits is Jonathan, the beginning of one of the nation's first planned communities. The natural beauty of Carver County, with its acres of park lands, trails, lakes and streams, provides recreational opportunities for everyone. The Minnesota Landscape Arboretum, a 500-acre education and research facility operated by the University of Minnesota, is located in Chanhassen which is adjacent to Chaska. Within the city limits is the Hazeltine National Golf Course, site of the 2002 PGA Championship. The Chaska Town Golf Course is rated among the top 10 national public courses. Chaska is a unique blend of traditional and action, combining pride in the old with ambitious plans for the new. As a city on the edge of the metro area, Chaska features both ready access to big-city advantages and a small-town sense of community.
