About the Location
Recreation Opportunities
Back in fall 2014, Griggs Park got quite the makeover. The renovation brought in a cool nature-themed play area and spruced up the walkways and landscaping throughout the space.
Stretching across roughly 3 acres, this quiet place has become a go-to spot for locals looking to enjoy some outdoor time. The park offers amenities for different ages and interests, making it a versatile neighborhood space for the community.
Playground and Sports Facilities
The playground is definitely a highlight here, refreshed during that 2014 renovation. The nature-themed equipment includes swings and slides that appeal particularly to the younger crowd.
Beyond the playground, you'll come across a nice mix of sports facilities scattered throughout. There's a baseball field for those summer games, a basketball court for shooting hoops, and a soccer field where you can work on your footwork year-round.
Year-Round Activities
Don't think Griggs is just a fair-weather friend. When winter rolls around, the park transforms with a seasonal skating rink and a gentle sledding hill that's just right for those snowy Minnesota days.
These features ensure you can enjoy outdoor time at Griggs regardless of what the calendar says.
Amenities and Community Space
You can find some nice shaded picnic areas within the park where you can relax or enjoy a meal outdoors. Just keep in mind that the playground area gets varying amounts of shade depending on when you visit.
There's a portable toilet available when nature calls, and your four-legged friends are welcome too - the park is dog-friendly with plenty of open space for them to enjoy.
With its mix of active and laid-back options nestled in a residential area, Griggs Park provides a space where physical activity, socializing, and connecting with nature are all possible.
