If you’ve never been to the one-of-a-kind Teddy Bear Park in Stillwater, add it to your list!

A large stone sculpture of two teddy bears set on a green lawn in Teddy Bear Park in Stillwater Minnesota. Behind them, there are a red building, a gazebo, and a clock tower. The sky is clear with scattered clouds.

Not only does Teddy Bear Park offer great outdoor fun for kids, it’s also a nice spot to enjoy the view of Stillwater as it’s located up on the hill.

In addition, there are nice indoor bathrooms on site – a rare perk for an outdoor park!

Teddy Bear Park is not open all year, but the City of Stillwater has now opened up the park for the 2025 season. *Please keep an eye on their Facebook page if it needs to close for any weather- related reason.*

There are sure to be plenty of warm days ahead to enjoy this great place! Park hours are 8 am to 8 pm.
