There are quite a few baseball fields for the baseball players to choose from. The playground is a little worn, but serves its purpose. A smaller area for the smaller kids and the one for the bigger kids with bigger slides and geared more for the older kids. There is a tire swing, and some cute little spring toys kids can rock back and forth on. There are restrooms available. Picnic tables Places to sit. There is a plaque explaining how the fields were named which was an interesting read. I never knew, but pretty cool.

The most vertical build of any big league stadium, their plot is the smallest in baseball and you'll never guess. Great fan amenities, easily accessible by SkyWalk, you can walk around the whole interior of the ballpark. Loved their scoreboards, and the elite wittiness of their scoreboard crew. Lots of food options. Twins' Hall of Fame in RF, fan-friendly area in RF. Biggest plus: unbelievably good customer service, from the ticket takers to the ushers to the carts, the stands, and their talented customer service window. Special thanks to Charley for a great pair of recommendations.

Ah such a lovely park in the heart of the city…read more A walking and biking trail around the entire lake, a zoo, golf course and a historic trolley station nearby are all available. The Pavilion, in it's current format is a wonderful space where musicians and more perform. I've even gone to a yoga class at one point that was a perfect stretching exercise. Both the Pavilion and the golf course offer food and drink. The golf course being off of everyone's radar because people think golf. But here too is a great balcony, overlooking the 9th hole. Super relaxing.

Which, since I wanted to just hike around in the autumn sunshine, I turned my car around and went back to. There was a port-a-john in the lot I parked in, which I appreciated. A little ways walk I also located a large gazebo-like structure with picnic tables. Didn't seem to have restrooms and the water fountain had already been turned off for the cold season. The trail is paved all the way around, which I suppose is nice for bicyclists, but not what I'd prefer as a hiker as it is hard on the feet and doesn't feel very nature-y. I also thought that in late October, this spot would be gorgeous, but for whatever reason all the trees had either already shed their leaves or were just kind of a sickly yellow color. Oh well. It was neat hiking along the river on either side; plus I got to watch a train go over the tresses on the north end. Not a super long walk, maybe an hour's worth if you go all the way around. Oh, there's also a small fenced-off section serving as a "dog park" but it didn't look very appealing or well-maintained... Also, people who drive their cars through here seem to want to speed above the limit... which is like weird because why not cruise and enjoy the scenery? Plus, the trail crosses the road in numerous places, so if you're speeding, you're more liable to hit someone. =/ It just doesn't feel well designed.

Update: copy and pasted from a previous review because I mistakingly reviews the wrong place…read more The St Paul Gym at UMN's St Paul campus is perfect for what I needed it for. I go twice a week at about 6 or 7am to play basketball with some friends, and it's always quiet enough for us to utilize the space. It's included in our normal UMN gym membership. Not sure of all the amenities that it has, but it does have a workout room, a basketball court, and some cardio equipment. Parking is tough if you don't have a pass, but there is a one hour street parking area near the tennis courts if you wanted to use that. Staff are friendly, and it's on one of the north most areas on campus. I'd definitely recommend going at least once, because it is way less busy than the twin cities campus gym. It's also very clean and easy to find!

It might not have the shine, bustling energy, or sheer size of Minneapolis's flagship Rec Center--one swimming pool instead of three, a handful of exercise machines versus fleets, no cafe or fireplace lounge in the lobby--but SPG manages to pack several gyms and activity rooms, indoor track, weight room, 8-lane lap pool, a few racquetball and squash courts, and a two-story climbing wall into one tidy building that befits its more pastoral surroundings. Outdoor fields, tennis courts, and free neighborhood street parking are all adjacent. Friendly staff and low traffic keep the facility pretty clean and quiet, although community programs such as youth swim lessons can clog the works during certain times of day. If you are a UMN affiliate wondering what a quiet gym feels like, hop a Connector out to St. Paul!
