Because Powderhorn includes such a large area, there are many options for recreation, entertainment, shopping and dining within the community. Powderhorn Lake Park is a significant neighborhood park, but potential residents will also be impressed by the close proximity to Lake Calhoun, Lake Harriet and Lake Nokomis. These area lakes are some of the largest in the city and offer tons of great amenities on the ample parkland that surrounds their shores. You might take a kayak across Lake Harriett or a morning jog around Lake Calhoun.

How about a round of golf at the Hiawatha Golf Course which borders Lake Nokomis? Whatever your pleasure, the Powderhorn area likely has it in terms of outdoor recreation.

The Powderhorn community is also within 5-10 miles of many of the city’s top educational offerings. These include the University of Minnesota – St. Paul and Minneapolis campuses, Luther Seminary, Macalester College, St. Catherine University and the University of St. Thomas.

The Minneapolis – Saint Paul International Airport is located within five miles to the south, just past Lake Nokomis.

Although the immediate area has nearly everything that anyone could want in the way of education, entertainment, shopping, dining and recreation, the Powderhorn community also enjoys close proximity to major roadways, which connect them to the rest of the Twin Cities area. Among these are Interstate 35W, 94, and 394.
