Your source for thoughtful Valentine’s Day finds with a hometown touch

Valentine’s Day, Christmas’s sweet and sparkly little sister, is coming just around the strawberry nugget-filled bend — and we know you’re ready to shower your special someone with a little indulgence. If you’re feeling like your gift-giving creativity is running low, we’ve got you covered. This gift roundup of unique and memorable ideas from our local businesses is here to help! You focus on the hugs, and we’ll handle the rest.

For Her:

The Wellness Studio: Acupuncture can help alleviate headaches, insomnia, the common cold, and so much more. Treat your best girl to a relaxing session with one of the skilled, caring providers at this peaceful wellness studio.

The Stash: They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but a pair or two of festive pretties from The Stash are a close second.

Nice Shirt, Co.: Sometimes simple says it all. A dainty heart necklace says ‘I love you’ without saying a word.

Shape It Up Fitness: Keep your leading lady soft, cozy, and cute with a custom-branded Waconia Lululemon hoodie (they come in men’s sizes, too!).

Schram Vineyards: Choose between three and six bottles per quarter with a membership to Schram’s Elite Wine Club, then watch the love — and the wine — flow.  

For Him:

Omni Brewery & Taproom: A growler or two of locally brewed, handcrafted beer to round out an evening at home will definitely make him feel the love.

Cabin Fever: Is your Valentine hooked on fishing? This local fishing headquarters has everything you need to fill his ice shack — and his heart — with all the feels.

LaunchPad Golf, The Meadows: This year-round entertainment destination has it all: excellent dining, heated bay golfing, interactive games, and more! If your guy likes to play — and not just golf — grab him a gift card and let the fun begin.

Winchester & Rye: This restaurant and whiskey lounge exudes cozy Valentine’s Day date vibes. Surprise him by brushing up on your whiskeys, or leave it to the knowledgeable staff to guide you.

The Burrow: Whether he’s done it before, or it’s his first time, take him to throw some axes – just trust us on this one.
