CHS Field

Reviewed By V9240JPtoms

Beautiful ergonomic contemporary vibe. Baseball is only part of the entertainment; there is something happening before the game, between every half-inning, and after the game. The announcers are hilarious. "(The opposing batter) has two strikes,.....(wait for it)...and NO BALLS!!" Great family fun. We like it more than going to a Twins game. Come early to hear live music outside the stadium. Inside the stadium, there is a nice variety of foods and drinks--from basic hotdogs and budweiser to gourmet selections and craft beers--a few cuts above traditional ballpark fare.

Riverside Park

Reviewed By CaptTrouble - Hudson, United States

My girlfriend and I spent some time here with our canoes waiting for our husbands to shuttle vehicles. It was sunny and 80 degrees; we put a blanket down under a tree and just sat and talked. Everything in this park is very clean, including the park shelter and the satellites. There is a playground and the kids there didn't bother us. Part of the Cannon Valley Trail is down below next to the river and we saw a few cyclists going by. This is a very nice place to canoe or kayak the river, or do some biking. There is a big parking lot for quite a few cars. Right now (Sept. 2020) the river is about 6-8" below normal, so there are multiple Class 1 rapids and some exposed rocks. We had no problems but we've been doing this for decades.
