Stone Creek Farm

6 sites ¡ Lodging36 acres ¡ Taylors Falls, MN
Situated on 36 acres, this working farm is 2 miles West of Taylors Falls. Dan and Danielle bought this property with the intention of growing stone fruits (plums, peaches, apricots and cherries) using sustainable and organic practices because health and wellness matter to them! They are still in the process of improving their property. Many of the building on the property were in poor condition, including the old barn foundation which is now one of Dan and Danielle favorite places to keep cool in the summer. After they had excavated all the debris (which took years) they were able to transform it with gardens and fire pit for all to enjoy. They love sharing what they have been blessed with! They hope you enjoy their place as much as they do! Feel free to ask them to show you around or even get your hands dirty with them as they plant or harvest.

The best camping near Interstate State Park guide

Overview

About

Maybe we’re suckers for “Ice Age,” but we think Interstate Park is just plain cool. Many years before we were born (approx. Ice Age), huge glaciers melted and the water carved the deep, steep-walled gorge, now known as the Dalles of the St. Croix. Over the years, Mother Nature has paid her toll on the rocks, shaping them into beloved figures, such as “Old Man of the Dalles.” During the summer, admire the stunning scenery along the 9+ miles of hiking trails and take a dip or paddle in the Lake of Dalles—non-motorized boats only. For dinner: walleyes, northern pike, muskies and small-mouth bass await in St. Croix River. Winter warrior? Trek out to Interstate for 12.5+ miles of cross-country skiing and snowshoeing trails.

When to go

The ideal time to visit Interstate State Park is during the warmer months, from late spring to early fall, when the full splendor of the park is on display and all facilities are open. Winter offers a serene, frosty landscape, but be prepared for cold temperatures and limited access to some park areas. Avoid peak holiday weekends if you prefer a quieter experience.

Know before you go

  • Ensure your vehicle has a valid admission sticker before entering the park.
  • Check the park's calendar for any special events or potential closures during your visit.
  • Accessibility varies across the park, so inquire ahead if you require specific accommodations.
  • Remember to pack essentials like water, sunscreen, and insect repellent for a safe and enjoyable visit.
  • Volunteer opportunities are available for those looking to give back to the park community.
