Lakefront Park, located along the scenic St. Croix River, is the crown jewel of Hudson parks. This park has it all, including playground equipment, swings, a beach with lifeguards in the summer, sand volleyball courts, a boat launch, a performance stage, picnic tables and benches. Lakefront Park is marked with a familiar arch. The paved paths along the water make it easy for folks to enjoy the river. One walkway extends nearly to the Minnesota side of the river; it's the remnant of a pre-Interstate 94 causeway.
