The food is amazing (I recommend SpongeBob popsicle) The water is not polluted because they do not let and speedboats or stuff like that (although you always wonder if something is lurking in the depths....) If you are wearing goggles I recommend looking for the fish under the mini docks, but DO NOT wear them in the deep. It makes everything scaryyyyy~

You can dance, dress up and sing, learn about what lives below the ice, be a cat, cast a spell with Taylor Swift lyrics, and help aliens understand humans. This event epitomizes how Minnesotans don't let freezing temps keep them from enjoying the lake and expressing their creativity.

Minnesotans really know how to throw events no matter rain, shine, or winter. Reflecting on this…read morepast winter reminded me of the surreal experience of standing on top of this frozen lake having moved from a two season state. If you've never been when it's frozen over I would highly recommend coming during their kite festival which also happens during the art shanty exhibits. If you show up to the kite festival on a whim, no worries, the park will have kites for sale. I would highly encourage coming with footwear that has good traction or added cat tracks to get secure grip on the ice.

Wow! Mother Nature was showing off here today! We "hiked" for about 1.5 miles. It was an easy…read morewalk with not much elevation changes, but the trail is not paved, and covered with leaves and hay, so it could be slippery after a good rain. The trails are well marked and there was even a volunteer at the entrance telling us all about the flowers and birds we could expect to see during our visit. It was lovely and I'm already planning to bring my family back here soon.

Jim Lupient is a fun and underrated water park in Northeast Minneapolis. They have a lot of…read moreactivities for kids and adults alike: a splash area, lap lanes, an obstacle course, water slides, mini golf, and more! I came specifically for the lap lane swimming. The lanes are nice, though limited (just two). I didn't have a problem getting a lane, but your mileage may vary. I sometimes had to deal with kids randomly jumping into the lane or cutting across me - which wasn't the end of the world, but it did cause a few almost-crashes. The other thing that bugged me is that they close the pool for a 15-minute "safety break" every few hours. This cut into my workout, which was a bit frustrating. But if you can plan around these - or if you have the time to spare - then it's not a big deal. Overall the experience was nice and the price is reasonable ($5 for an adult), so I would come back. If the weather's nice and you're in the area, check it out yourself!
