Lake Park Playground

One of the largest playgrounds in Winona, the Lake Park playground features swings (including two baby/toddler swings), lots of climbing equipment and slides (including a playset for older toddlers), a sandbox, two seesaw-type rides, and several tunnels. It's located next to the bandshell, which makes it a popular destination on Wednesday nights during the summer when the municipal band is practicing for its concert. Amenities include a water fountain (operates only during summer months), portable toilets, and picnic tables. Most of the playground is not shaded. Located at Lake Park Drive and Park Drive (near W Lake St and Main St).


Creekside Playground, Rushford


This is a large wooden playground with "castles" and walkways, swings, tires, a sandbox, and various climbing equipment. The playground is partially shaded and near a picnic shelter and t0ilets. If you'd like to make a day of it, the Creamery is a good place to stop for ice cream or pizza after the playground; it's just a few minutes down Hwy 43 in Rushford (on the right, before Hwy 15, next to the bowling alley). Located near the intersection of Pine Meadows Rd. and N. Mill St., Rushford; watch for the ballfields on the left as you head into town, or view a map.
