About Marine on St. Croix

Marine on St. Croix is one of Minnesota's oldest settlements, founded along the river in 1839 around the state's first commercial sawmill. That history is still very present today. Stone mill ruins overlook the water, and quiet, wooded streets are lined with well-kept 19th-century houses. It feels peaceful, secluded, and completely separated from suburban sprawl.
