I have come to Shoreview Park throughout my life for a variety of active purposes, be it as part of…read moremy soccer team, track and field practice, taking the dog for a walk/run on-leash, getting in running shape, and taking/doing biodiversity plots as part of my Environmental Science class at Shoreline Community College. There are a number of play fields, two set-up for baseball/softball and one we used for soccer games. The grassy unfenced baseball field serves as a good place for running drills and soccer warm-up. Prior to the addition of the playground by the soccer field there used to be a grassy area where we could stretch and do some warm-up exercises. There is a trail/path around the outside of the soccer field that I have paced and is approximately 0.2 miles (without cutting corners) so five laps makes a mile. I find this field to be a perfect place to get back into running shape. It is tucked away from the road, so it does not feel like one is running on display for the roadway. Trails to the North/Northeast take you to Boeing Creek Park, and trails to the East/Northeast take you to the Shoreline Community College Off-Leash Dog Park (also called the Shoreview Off-Leash Dog Park). Trails to the North/Northwest/West of the athletic fields take you past Hidden Lake. I came here recently, this past Saturday the 30th of May 2020, and today, the 1st of June 2020. On Saturday it was raining and I brought the dog, Schatzi the Münsterländer, along with me to walk a little ways on the trails, do some exploring, and run a few laps together. Schazti was soaking wet by the end and when I went to grab a towel from the trunk of the car she was so excited to get someplace dry she jumped right in. I got her to go to the back seat, and had the towels to wipe her down. None of the fields get particularly muddy, so it was mostly plant and grass that stuck to her fur and some dirt that I had to worry about when she got in the car. Today I came to run a few laps on my own and explore the park a little more as it has been a while since I had last done that. I arrived around 9:40 a.m. and left around 10:10 a.m. By the time I was leaving the parking lots were starting to fill up. Busy place on a clear day and a healthy reminder that summer is coming! A fun park with a variety of offerings that change with the seasons so there is always something to do or explore no matter the time of year.

I didn't know about Shoreview until I moved to Shoreline. It's definitely underappreciated, which…read moreis good for me to avoid crowds, etc. There's tennis and pickleball courts, a dog park, athletic fields, trails, and even a (gross) lake nearby. Shoreview is probably the same size as Magnuson, but shadier, so it provides much needed relief on sunnier and/or hotter days. Since it's so big, there's always parking available in multiple places throughout. If you want flat trails, there's those. If you want elevation, there's trails that go up higher, too.

Serene little park that offers a shady respite for people & their littles, including fur babies…read more I've not mastered the ins & outs of the trails bc I'm admittedly directionally challenged, but there's basically a corridor path that runs down the middle, and meandering paths on either side. It's peaceful & shaded- usually quiet. We appreciate having such a great park minutes from home.

Hamlin Park is a lovely place to go on a walk and enjoy the tall trees and wildlife. Trails run…read morethroughout the park and one of the paths (the main one I suppose) has white trail markers indicating in what direction to proceed to stay on the trail at forks in the trail. We didn't realize these were trail markers until towards the end of our walk today... we ended up going in the reverse direction around the trails. Runners, dog walkers, children in camp, and walkers abounded this morning. Along one of the trails there are restoration in progress areas where one can get involved in environmental stewardship if so inclined. Posted signs provide contact information on where to seek more information about this. The birds loved this portion of the trail and we heard a variety of different bird songs as we traversed this area. Wildflowers and plants in the park were beautiful and captivated my attention while exploring. On a more industrial note, there are big guns (I call them cannons) from the 1800s located by the playground. An essential stop if you want a fun photo-op and to learn a little bit of war history on your visit. My mom and I both enjoyed our visit today, Tuesday the 21st of July 2020, and found Hamlin Park a place we both are interested in revisiting. The parking lots didn't have many cars when we arrived around 9 a.m. but by the time we left, a little after 10 a.m., the parking lot we had parked in was about half full. The morning sun and cool air was very refreshing for a forecasted hot day.

I competed and practiced at Twin Ponds Park when I was growing up for soccer, back when the soccer…read morefield was made of dirt. The dirt field was fun as it allowed us to adapt our soccer skills to different natural conditions (standing water on a dirt field, inches thick mud, loose dirt, and dirt hard as pavement because it froze in 20 degree Fahrenheit weather after a rain). The times the dirt froze helped up become more conscientious runners on the field, especially in regards to how we would run so our feet would not catch on the frozen dirt. Aside from the soccer field, there is grass area to warm up, walk around, or take a picnic. A trail system winds around the two ponds. On my visit today, Wednesday 26 July 2023, I saw geese, ducks, a great blue heron, a few small blue dragonflies, and gray squirrels. The restroom building had running water and soap. Parking was abundant as it was quiet, on days we had soccer games it could fill up quickly.

One of my least favorite places to play soccer. Parking is a drag plus if you park on street…read morethere's a giant lip for you to scrap your tire rims on. Now because there's a pond or lake next to the field there's a great possibility of losing your $150 soccer ball when it flys into the lake. Come on the least you could do is put up nets to avoid ball loss or drowning. On a positive note there nice new field turf down on the ground. Fake grass is amazing to play on. Also a short distance away is Jerseys Sports Bar for after game nacho's & beers.
