About Eden Prairie

With seventeen beautiful lakes, the Minnesota River Valley, 4,500 acres of marshland, vast open fields, and over 100 ponds, Eden Prairie is a natural utopia. Over 1,000 acres, a total of 27 parks, are devoted to parkland for the community, offering public beaches, fishing piers, community gardens, Frisbee golf, ice-skating rinks, baseball fields and an ongoing list of amenities that are available year-round.

Best of all, there’s a new Community Center that’s top-of-the-line with a pool, racquetball courts, ice rinks, and so much more. There are endless recreational opportunities in Eden Prairie!
