Dakota Nature Park

This is a wonderful park. I love to go for walks here frequently. They even allow dogs as long as they are on a leash and the owner picks up after their pet. They have places to sit and rest your legs. I love to sit and stare out at the water and take in the peaceful sounds of the wildlife that reside there. You'll find many different birds and plants to appreciate.

Good size for a city run outdoor nature park. Summertime rentals are nice with kayaks and canoes, along with fishing equipment and other sporting goods. Winter is also a time to rent sporting goods such as cross country skis and snow shoes, weather permitting of course. The one thing that kept me from adding that fifth star is the management of the ponds. The DNR has not done a great job maintaining a healthy fish population and this has resulted in a lot of stunted fish, good for kids to catch, bad for anglers who are without a boat or access to natural lakes/waterways.

Awesome trail system, fun for family hikes. Easy bike and kayak rentals. Cross country skiing too.

Good place to visit. Lake was frozen due to winters. But a good place to spend a evening.
