1 / 2William Berry Playground
đ Southwest Minneapolis, MN
William Berry Playground sits next to Lake Harriet with wheelchair-accessible equipment, picnic tables, and views of the lake. The bandshell, trolley, and ice cream are all within easy walking distance.
Best playground I've seen. The view is beautiful and the playground is cool. At the time of writing this review there is a lot of construction on the way there so drove cautiously.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for families wanting a playground anchored in a wider activity cluster. Wheelchair accessibility makes it a strong pick for families with children with mobility needs. Kids of all ages find something to do, and parents can extend the outing with bandshell events or a trolley ride.
