Polk County is only fifty miles from Minneapolis but it feels like a world away with a friendly, hometown feel everywhere that you go. This is the type of place you go to watch local kids walk in a parade, attend a cozy country Christmas, or see a tractor pull in action. This is hometown Americana at in all its glory and we love it here!
The St. Croix National Scenic Riverway is also located in Polk County, giving you plenty of opportunities to fish, boat, or hike while enjoying stunning and remote vistas. In the winter, you can snowmobile and ice fish so there is always something to get you outdoors. Find out why Polk County Wisconsin is such an amazing place to live or visit.
