Parks & Recreation | 2025 Annual Report

BEACHES

Chanhassen’s swimming beaches are open daily from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. and operate without lifeguards on duty. City- operated beaches include Carver Beach (Lotus Lake), Greenwood Shores Beach (Lake Ann), Roundhouse Park Beach (Lake Minnewashta), and Lake Ann Beach. Lake Minnewashta Regional Park Beach is operated separately by Carver County. To help ensure public health and safety, the city conducts weekly water quality testing at all municipal beaches from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Water samples are analyzed for E. coli bacteria to ensure levels remain within state health guidelines. Beaches may be temporarily closed if bacterial counts exceed recommended thresholds or if harmful blue-green algae conditions are present.
