A newer, super clean park with clean wood chips instead of dirty sand! Located at the intersection of Prosperity and Summer Ave in Maplewood, MN. A great park with a playground where kids can ride a zipline in 2 different ways: a safety locking chair or a round seat. There are water fountains, grills for BBQing, picnic tables under pavilions, and picnic tables under umbrellas. Not only that but theres a lake right next to the park with a walking/bike path. Its truly a great place to take the family for some relaxing fun!

Wonderful neighborhood park. Newly updated Everything and much safer and cleaner for family gatherings. Park facilities are available for daily rental and new bathrooms adds great finishing touch. Plenty of room for soccer, volleyball, football, and theres even a brand new hockey rink (ice available only in the winter months)Plenty of good parking all around. Good work Maplewood City! Please keep it up.

Loved the playground. We came out on the first nice day of the year and there were plenty of kids. Very accessible. The playground have a ramp feature for wheelchairs to reach almost the top. There are two medium size picnic shelters nearby for gatherings with bbq grills.

Great park with a variety of things to do! A lot of space and a few places to sit. There isnt too many shaded areas. Adding some tables would be a plus! Parking is plentiful as well.

The play equipment is great for littles through elementary school kids. They have accessible swings and the swing zipline. There is a good amount of parking on 2 sides of the playground. The park in normal times has a bathroom. Currently it has porta potties. There are fixed grills and outdoor picnic tables.

Maplewood has a nice park here right along the lake, and they did the right thing by putting in a community building and improving the amenities here. Thank goodness Parks finally has a win over resources aside from Police and Fire.
