Great Horned owl family
(2 of 3) ... getting closer to the center, almost symmetric!
Beautiful walking pathway
(1 of 3) concentric square art...
(3 of 3) and there it is, perfectly centered! But still not perfectly symmetric, d'oh! (not the inner pattern, anyway)

A really fun park with a lot of great art to see while you walk around it. The QR codes give a lot of additional information to listen to as well.Lots of trees, walking paths and a beautiful lake make this a great place to enjoy nature and art.

I love Silverwood Park. It has beautiful trails through the woods and along the lake. Every year, we are lucky enough to see a family of Great Horned owls in the spring that make their nests there. The lake is perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding or swimming. I also enjoy their cafe and art center, which offers delicious treats and Wi-Fi so you can work in an alternate space.

Beautiful park nearby for a stroll! Plenty of fauna for shade during bright sunny days. Sunsets are pretty here. Plenty parking on site and is maintained well. It has cool sculptures that one can discover during a stroll.

Such a cool park to walk in, with lots of sculptures, beautiful trees and plants and really well maintained paths. The peninsula is super cool and has a picnic pavilion with grills. Parking is plentiful with at least two lots I saw and two different entrances. Today the frogs were super loud, we saw two deer just chilling, and we could hear the red wing blackbirds are back. Definitely a great popular place to visit in the area.

Silverwood Park... I like it, but I hate the name.Silverwood is meaningless on its own and the name sounds like a typical corporate mashup of two dissimilar words thrown together. Or maybe something a committee came up with in the early 1960s after their three-martini lunch. (I hope that they got the Don Draper Double-Clutch Discount on that one!)Yeah, it's near Silver Lake Road and Silver Lake itself, but why not call it Silver Lake Park (or Silverlake Park, if you're into the whole condensing words thing)? There must be a reason, but I'm too lazy to look it up and it's not gonna change anything anyway. Silverwood it is!Anyway, the park! It's a very spacious-feeling park area with a nice building and a lake with a peninsula in it, plus some shorter paved walking trails and a number of art installations scattered throughout.The building has a meeting area with wood plank ceilings and a decent cafe in it, plus restrooms for those seeking to rest.Out of everything, the so-called silver lake is the highlight of this shebang.Take a stroll and take it all in.

Great park with trails and fun structures along the way. Gorgeous trees everywhere and beautiful lake views. There are also picnic benches and seats along the way to take in all the views.

A great park in St. Anthony Village! One of my favorites for dog walking year round. This park has many amenities including a lodge, picnic tables, a beach, and art sculptures. The park is moderately busy with families, dogs, and wildlife. There are many trails and walking paths both paved and unpaved. Very nicely run park and close to NE Minneapolis!

I just attended a wedding here and it is a very cool event center. Since it is winter i did not walk around outside or go down to the lake since it was frozen. I did run outside for a photo by the fireplace. We Phoenicians do not get to see snow very often. So my review is only for the event enter. Great place to have a party so check it out. from the other reviews it seems like a great place to enjoy the outdoors too when the weather improves.

Love Silverwood Park! This is my first winter visit. If you've never been, it's a must! Especially during fall and summer months. Though we very much enjoyed during this visit. I was excited to seen many walking paths have been plowed. Though if you veer off the main path, the hard packed snow can be slippery, but hello, it's MN! If you venture out during these long winter months do warm up inside and check out the visitor's center. There is a cafe with hot chocolate, light bites, coffee drinks to warm up inside! Also, checkout the events and activities listed and available the there are so many fun things to do for all ages! And if you enjoy this park there are more parks connected within the Three Rivers Park District. Each park offers something new and fun for you and/or the whole family. Including equipment rentals!

The Hall staff are the most uneducated people I have ever met. I asked to rent the hall but on first expression, I felt unwelcome. I'm appalled that there are still people that are ignorant.
