This riverside town is nestled atop the bluffs and surrounded by woods. Walk through the peaceful streets in this little “hamlet on the hill” and you will experience a community where you feel safe and soothed. In addition to the quaint businesses and eateries in “downtown” you can access everything you could want or need in a modern suburb just across the river in St Croix Falls.
