This road has plenty of nice curves through the lake area. Pavement is decent. Very few hills.

Nice twisties, moderate speed. See nice lake homes and boats. The lake has many bays and channels. Plenty of places to stop for food and drink. Lord Fletchers Old Lake Lodge is a great place for weekend people watching on a waterfront channel between parts of lake Minnetonka. Good food and bar.
