Peavey Park

The park itself is amazing! There is a covered pavilion with picnic tables, a permanent grill, absolutely the latest and greatest playground equipment, and a nice soccer field with lights albeit smaller than regulation size! The only problem was parking. There is one dead end street off of Park Avenue that you can park on, otherwise fend for yourself in the rough neighborhood area. As soon as I saw a spot open up on the road off of Park, I moved my vehicle...see pic of semi-permanent looking homeless "home" on the street I had to park on until I could move when something else opened up..

Just redone a few months ago and is really nice. Great space for kids to runnot crammed. The equipment well laid out and a great assortment of things for kids to do such as: Slides, climbing, swings, pool, obstacles, zipline, toddler area, and much more. Very happy with the time and effort that went into this new playground. My kids said it their new favorite playground in this area!

This summer our family road trip was inspired by the 90's Mighty Ducks movie trilogy. We drove from Palatine, IL to visit several iconic places in the Twin Cities from each movie. This park made our list because Coach Bombay met his team for the first time at Peavey Park. In the scene from Mighty Ducks, Coach Bombay orders his chauffeur to drive the Limo on an ice covered pond to greet his team. The pond is no longer at Peavey Park but my girls enjoyed all the other activities that are clearly upgrades.

Lovely and almost perfectly sited. Wide open and sunny, with more than enough space for everybody there to do whatever they planned without interfering with anyone else’s fun.

Do much has changed from the years past. The updates to the park have made it feel safer and more welcoming to the whole family. Bright lights placed in an Abundance throughout the park keep it lit up and easy to stay aware of your surroundings no matter night or day. The play ground has increased in size and nowadays you see it packed full of families young and old on the beautiful warm days.

Nice location, awesome skyline view, minimal park but just enough, shallow splash pad for kiddos and cooling down, nice spacious fields, sorts dicey location, nice trees and windy trail for new learning bike riders!

Beautiful. Lots of activity. Park for all ages.

Beautiful new playground and soccer fields, plus a splash pad in summer. There are a few park grills and a rec center, though it's not open on weekends. Playground: New playground in 2021 with adaptive swings and a big zip line Restrooms: Portapotties Picnic area: Groups can reserve the big picnic shelter

Great during the daytime but use caution there at night!!! Nefarious characters there so it could be dangerous...

The swing are wheelchair accessible and accessible to all children. basketball courts are enough space.
