Miller Park provides public boat access to Mitchell Lake, a 114-acre water body in Eden Prairie with a maximum depth of 19 feet and good water clarity (average 9 feet). This city-owned access point is located on the southern end of the lake and can accommodate boats up to 18 feet. The lake operates under a 10 horsepower motor restriction, making it ideal for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboat users seeking a quieter paddling experience.
**Practical Information:** There are no launch fees, though you'll need an access sticker to launch at this location. On-street parking is not permitted in the area, so plan to use park parking. The lake's 4.1-mile shoreline provides good paddling opportunities for exploring. For current access status and any gate conditions, contact Eden Prairie Public Works at (763) 263-2268. This is a convenient option for metro-area paddlers looking for a well-maintained, motor-restricted lake close to the Twin Cities.
