Outdoor activities summer through winter on the outskirts of Med City
Although summertime temperatures in Rochester, Minnesota, don't often exceed 80 degrees, families can still be found cooling off in the Lincolnshire Park splash pad. In the winter, when temperatures hover in the single digits, it’s more common to see them bundled up on the ice rink. “Minnesota people, in general, love to take advantage of the outside as long as they can,” says local Realtor Marcia Gehrt, who works with the Enclave Team. “There’s farmers markets from spring ‘til late in the fall. You can always find something to do,” she adds. The park anchors Lincolnshire-Arbor Glen, a Northwest Rochester neighborhood that, according to Gehrt, is “a little more spread out” than surrounding communities. Lots are on the larger size, and homes border paved biking and walking trails that connect Rochester public parks to Mayo Clinic buildings, shopping centers and schools. The Clinic’s Downtown campus is about 6 miles from Lincolnshire and Arbor Glen; the hospital, in general, employs over 40,000 Rochesterians. There’s also IBM about 2 miles south. Ultimately, Lincolnshire-Arbor Glen is a tree-lined retreat on the outskirts of Med City, a suburban departure from scrubs and sirens.
Townhouses and single-family homes built within the last 30 years
“Lincolnshire-Arbor Glen is made up of several subdivisions,” says Sara Vix, a Realtor with Keller Williams. Townhouse prices tend to hover between $260,000 and $275,000, whereas single-family homes dating back to the 1990s and early 2000s start around $350,000 and can sell for up to $550,000. According to Gehrt, there’s a “mixed bag of styles,” everything from split-level and ranch-style houses to New Traditionals. “Most everything has attached garages,” she says, and these come in handy between the months of November and March when neighborhoods like Lincolnshire-Arbor Glen can accumulate around 50 inches of snow.
Lincolnshire-Arbor Glen also has an area designated to single level townhomes.

Nature trails, snowmobiles and public-use golf courses
Along with a seasonal splash pad and skating rink, Lincolnshire Park also has soccer fields, baseball fields and a playground surrounded by benches. Residents can enjoy the natural scenery at Northern Hills Prairie Park nearby. “This area has great access to the Douglas Trail and the Rochester Trail system for a great weekend bike ride,” adds Vix. Residents can walk their dogs along the paved pathways or apply for permits to ride snowmobiles in the winter and horses in the summer. The Village Community Garden, one of several farms dedicated to ensuring food sovereignty and sustainability throughout Rochester, spans approximately 3.5 acres outside Rochester Covenant Church. The Northern Hills Golf Course is open to the public and borders the neighborhood to the west. Residents can book tee times in advance online or schedule private lessons.
Residents can walk their pets on the Douglas State Trail.

Big-box retail, fast-casual restaurants and a ‘Dog Menu’ at Smoak BBQ
According to Gehrt, one of Lincolnshire-Arbor Glen’s main appeals is its proximity to shopping. Big box retail options like Walmart Supercenter, Target and a Hy-Vee Grocery Store are all within 2 miles, or a 5-minute drive, from the neighborhood. Some residents live within walking distance of the shopping center and pass by the Village Community Garden before stocking up on household supplies at staples like The Home Depot or Sam’s Club. There are also plenty of casual fast-food chains, including everything from Five Guys to Applebee’s, and Vix recommends heading down West Circle Drive to try the Texas-style barbecue at Smoak. The restaurant hosts cornhole tournaments on the outdoor patio, and there’s also a “Woof Menu” for four-legged dining companions.

FORWARD Park Concerts, FARM Fest and Rochesterfest
On select Wednesday nights throughout the summer, the Mayo Clinic sponsors a free music series known as FORWARD Park Concerts. Residents bring folding chairs, picnic blankets and coolers to Arborglen Park and listen to live bands. Food trucks park before the music begins, and sometimes Rochester Public Library’s Bookmobile swings by. The Village Agricultural Cooperative also hosts an event called F.A.R.M. Fest (Food, Art, Recreation and Music) in July, and Gehrt recommends checking out Rochesterfest. “It’s a big gathering, and there’re soccer tournaments, baseball tournaments and all kinds of sporting events and Midwest summer activities leading up to it,” she says, adding, “It ends with one of those candy-throwing parades.”
Park and ride to Downtown Rochester
Public buses stop along Lincolnshire-Arbor Glen thoroughfares like 48th Street and 31st Avenue on the way downtown, but Vix says most commuters rely on their own cars. There’s also an IBM Mayo Clinic Park and Ride option, ideal for those who don’t have access to parking in the city. According to Vix, the neighborhood also has easy access to Highway 52, “which is a straight shot to the Twin Cities” less than 90 miles away. Rochester International Airport, about 14 miles south of Lincolnshire-Arbor Glen, flies commercial passengers direct to two destinations: Minneapolis/St. Paul and Chicago O’Hare.
