Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I write reviews specifically for dates and to encourage people to spend more time having a life filled with adventure. This date is a perfect kid date, picnic destination, journal spot, writers group, and other daydreamer styled activity.
This is a "hidden in plain sight" section of the city that often gets missed. It is the perfect spot to toss out a blanket, unpack a picnic, watch the sky, and hang out and do nothing. It is a favorite cloud watching spot and I find that there is enough interesting sky that you can just gaze, dream, nap, or chat with a loved one. Bikes welcome.

Great little park! Right next door to the Guthrie Theater and perfect place for a picnic or stroll. Park isn't huge, but just a nice place to get away from the city and sit and enjoy the day.

We stopped here after going to the Mill City Market. There was a well-attended yoga class being held on the grass. Others were engaged in various activities like picnicking, walking, playing frisbee, etc. The park is near the memorial for those who lost their lives in the I35 bridge collapse. The park overlooks the Mississippi River.

So my daughter lives across the street from this beautiful park, amazing view at night and during the day. The park always seems full of people either running biking or walking their dogs. So I decided to talk this walk when out walking her dog and I must say that the walking was really amazing. The park and the is very well maintained and the lawn was beautiful. Just walking around looking at the old factory buildings that have been converted to living spaces was really amazing. I walked across the bridge to look at the dam and the running and walking bridge that they have done such a wonderful job on. If it were not for the cold weather I really could see myself living in Minnesota.

Stopped by while walking the river way. Sat on the grass and enjoyed the view of the falls and the people strolling by. Any entertainment has to come with you as this is not a destination spot.

This is a great little park right in the heart of Minneapolis' new US Bank Stadium.
I have the pleasure of going for a run here a few of the mornings as it is right next to the bridge that crosses into St. Paul. From the top of the park you can see clear in to St. Paul, and the new US Bank Stadium, also a view into downtown Minneapolis.

Great, pet-friendly park to romp through on a beautiful day. Start your walk with a trip to Izzy's Ice Cream on the South edge of the park!

You can't beat the beautiful green lawn with great sculptures, leading up to a tall slope with views of the river. Be sure to go inside the Guthrie Theater next door, take the escalator to the top, and look down from the balcony (for free!) for breathtaking views of the park on your right, the old Gold Medal Flour mill next door ... and lots beyond.

Came here for the fireworks on the 4th of July--the park was packed but pleasant and comfortable. The hill in the center of the park offers wonderful views.
