Here’s a glimpse into 10 classic supper clubs in Minnesota that will help you do just that.

Fun In Minnesota

What are some of the best places to have fun in Minnesota?
Edinborough Park (Edina): This adventure park is one of the largest indoor play areas in the United States, offering a running track and fitness area, and The Summit, which is a space that includes a bouncy house, scooters, and other activities. You can also enjoy the running/walking track, fitness equipment, and swimming pool.
St. Croix State Park (Pine County): Who wouldn't have fun in this immense park with more than 34,000 acres and two great rivers? The recreational activities are endless in this scenic space. Go for a climb on the fire tower, hike the one-mile loop from the River's Edge Trail to the River Bluff Trail, check out the visitor center, and watch out for wildlife sightings. Extend your stay and rent one of the campsites.
Carley State Park (Plainview): If you're looking for wildflowers in the spring, this is the place to see them. Sitting on more than 200 acres with five miles of trails, the birds enjoy the company of the lovely bluebells, the Dutchman's breeches, and the bloodroot and so will you. It's a great space to do some nature journaling.
