Swimming Holes Near Minneapolis

Summertime in Minnesota is oh so sweet! We adore the warm weather almost as much as we love our beautiful lakes, parks and natural spaces. Say goodbye to the snow and hello to the sun by paying a visit to one of these six incredible swimming holes around the Minneapolis area.

  1. Lake Minnetonka Swim Pond – 4610 County Rd. 44, Minnetrista, MN 55364 
    The Lake Minnetonka Swim Pond is located right beside Lake Minnetonka in the Lake Minnetonka Regional Park. This pond is surrounded by soft sand on all sides which means there is plenty of lakeside leisure to go around. The pond has a maximum depth of six feet so parents and children can enjoy a safe yet exciting swim.

Minnesota Spring Jam

Minneapolis homes for sale are at the crossroads of some of the greatest universities in the United States. People around here believe in education, and it starts fast with fine public schools.

No matter if you're starting a family or continuing your own studies, there's a lot to love in the Twin Cities. But it's not all about hitting the books: There's plenty of fun to be had, too.

The University of Minnesota is the oldest and biggest campus in the University of Minnesota system. Established in 1851, it has since made a name as a leading research university that has earned 29 Nobel Prizes and three Pulitzer Prizes. Wow!

But U of M students don't just work hard, they play hard – and they know how to do it right!

Spring Jam brings the authentic music festival experience right to campus.

Spring Jam is a Musical Extravaganza You Won't Forget

On Saturday, April 27, one of the most ambitious entertainment programs in the history of the University will be making its much-anticipated return. Carnival rides and delicious food will give attendees plenty to do as they gear up for amazing live performances!
