Silver View Park — Attraction in Mounds View

Overall thoughts: OMG, a new favorite park for overcast or chilly days. So much space for kids to run, not by a street, lots to explore!

SWINGS? Yes, 2 traditional ones and 2 baby/toddler ones.

PLAY STRUCTURE FOR BIG/LITTLE KIDS? A structure for big kids (5+) and a smaller structure for toddlers also! The carousel dealio is such a cool aspect!

SHADE? None that benefits the playground, but there are trees and shade in the area.

DISTANCE FROM PARKING LOT TO THE PLAYGROUND? Not far at all, a parking lot is available right next to the park.

TABLES OR GAZEBOS? A few picnic tables and a really nice gazebo with about 12 tables underneath it.

BENCHES? Only one near the playground that's in need of maintenance and isn't placed at a very good vantage point.

BATHROOM? Porta potties available.

WALKING PATH? Yes!

OPEN AREA? Plenty of space to run around for kids or relax on the grass.

BUSY/LOUD STREET? Nope!

ANY FUN EXTRAS? Disc golf course, soccer field, baseball field, basketball court, sand volleyball courts and a perfect hill...

Silver View Park is a very nice park bordered on the south by Wood Lake in Mounds View. Good parks have a covered picnic pavilion, perhaps even with electricity. Great parks have the same, but also a small kitchenette, and permanent restrooms! This is the perfect park for parties, including graduation, birthday, anniversary, you name it! The park includes plenty of room to run around for the kids, also a walking or jogging path. Other amenities include a basketball court and a fantastic updated playground. Our three year old LOVED the playground. There is also plenty of parking with a newly paved lot. One shortcoming is that there could be more picnic tables. Overall a great place to play for a few hours on a...

Beautiful park. Excellent trails. Nice playground with 2 volleyball courts with sand (be acreful sometimes there are sharp objects in the sand).

Nice shelter where you can rent. The website for the county shows it is $100/ day for residents and $200/day for non-residents. If you rent, you have access to a little kitchen area and a bathroom inside the shelter. Otherwise, there are port a johns outside for bathrooms which per friend's and family, are clean as well!

A small park but friend and family oriented, kid friendly, and fun...
