Minnehaha park
If the name of this park doesn’t get you smiling, then the park itself will. This park has a slew of outdoor activities including a bike path, garden, volleyball court, and even a disc golf course. Follow the Minnehaha Creek around to see the Mississippi River. Insider tip: If you are driving a car, remember to bring some cash along to pay for your parking.

Liquor Lyle’s
This is a local favorite with character! This bar is for those looking to have a good time and not expect much when it comes to the environment, they say it themselves on their website, “However, don’t come here if you are looking for something up-scale or fancy. Lyles is a classic bar and is determined to stay that way, even if it means patrons must only sit on 70’s red vinyl booths.” They have a great happy hour and is ideal for those looking to have a fun night!
