In the shadow of forested hills, the lively Hay Creek is next door to miles of trails in the Richard J. Dorer Memorial Hardwood Forest. There is trout fishing, a swimming pool and a playground, plus a western vibe. Horses have their own camp area, and a brick-sided old western saloon offers lunch, dinners and a game room. 31655 Hwy. 58 Blvd., Red Wing; 651-388-3998; haycreekvalley.com
