The association manages the park and there are donations boxes if you would like to donate and help honor and preserve Scandinavian culture and traditions. This area is dog friendly. All dogs must be on a leash. The area is very park like with wide walking trails, signs, buildings, picnic tables, and it's a great place to have a picnic. I found the grounds extremely well maintained and it was very peaceful. We went during a weekend when the buildings weren't open, although it was still interesting to explore and learn more about Scandinavian culture. They also hosts events throughout the year and it's also a venue for events like weddings. Highly recommend visiting!

The water display was beautiful and the trickling sounds made it even better. Cute, white bridges throughout for beautiful picture taking opportunities. The information area and gift shop was very inviting and helpful. The staff we met were very friendly and eager to help and answer questions. No charge for touring the parking which was even better.

There's a literal splash pad with the mushroom and a big frog slide for the kitty kids about 2 foot of water. There's a large swimming area and it's only about 4 foot six and then there's a hot tub as well. Price wasn't that bad you can swim here year-round snow or no snow.

The fancy new scanner is slow, maybe still learning how to use it. Anyway took 15 minutes to get through. Mind you there was only may 10 in line. Had about 7 or 8 tsa members working. Parking is $70 a week. No thanks. I'm pretty sure my garden hose water tastes better than the filter water out of the water fountain.

MOT is a very small airport. There are 6 gates and you can see all of them from the center, 2 are…read morenot operational/active. I've never seen more than 2 commercial aircraft due to depart close to the same time. TSA check is quick and getting to your gate is just as fast. Eat before you go, as the food options are limited (1 sit down & a few vending machines) and the vending machines don't always take your card. The airport is new and clean, the latter is probably due to the first. Obviously, it is very easy to navigate. Parking is high, rediculously so given that the airport is so small and the parking area is not garaged. Seriously, pricing is half as much at all other North Dakota airports, putting Minot in the Minneapolis range, but without the perks. ($48 to park Friday and depart last flight back Monday) - I suggest a car service. We typically fly in/out of MOT 1-2x monlthly. We walk if the flight is not early - uber/taxis are worth the price to avoid the outrageous parking fee if going for more than 2 days.

I waited an hour no one showed up so I couldn't get in my room.
