Lake Elmo, MN | Green Acres Recreation Area
Great recommendation! Had a blast here with my boys ages 9, 9, and 7. The staff was amazing and super helpful especially the first few times getting on the tow rope for my youngest. They make safety a priority and I love that we were able to fill out the waivers and reserve our spots ahead of time. Highly recommend for fun with the fam! -Shauna
