Parks & Nature

Lake Calhoun is one of my favorite lakes to walk or bike around. There's a cool place called Wheel Fun Rentals (https://wheelfunrentals.com/mn/minneapolis/lake-calhoun/rentals/) that rents kayaks, standup paddle boards, paddle boats, canoes, and bikes. Adjacent to Wheel Fun Rentals is Lola's on the Lake (https://www.lolascafemn.com), a lakeside restaurant that is great for grabbing a quick bite. Note: Wheeled Fun Rentals and Lola's only operate during the warm months.
