Nice park office with ski rentals in the winter. Big playground. A lake that they run a aerator, so it stays open and a bunch of swans stay in the winter.

Normandale Lake Park in Bloomington, Minnesota, centers on Normandale Lake and the meandering Nine Mile Creek. The lake, created in the late 1970s from a marsh and floodplain, serves both as a scenic retreat and a vital flood-control basin for the area. On the east side of the lake, a cascading waterfall marks the spot where water flows from the lake back into the original channel of Nine Mile Creek. This creek, stretching approximately 15 miles, continues its journey from the lake to the Minnesota River. Visitors enjoy the park not only for its natural beauty—especially at the waterfall, which is particularly striking during the spring melt—but also for its amenities, including picnic areas, a reservable picnic shelter, seasonal restrooms, and access to water activities like canoeing and fishing.
