Small towns are a dime a dozen, but there is one in each state that stands out from the rest to provide the most unique and memorable experience to visitors and tourists alike.
Be it a quaint town square, picturesque park, or quirky presence, something about this Minnesota town makes it so unforgettable that it landed on a list of the United States' most charming small towns.
If you've been searching for a place to explore, perhaps away from the hustle and bustle of the state's biggest cities and most popular tourist attractions, look no further than this state gem!
According to an updated list compiled by Thrillist, the most charming small town in all of Minnesota is Stillwater. This town was named most charming due to its gorgeous waterfront views and winter "ice castles."
Here's what Thrillist had to say about the most charming small town in the entire state:
"Lodged in the beautiful St. Croix Valley, Stillwater is known for its gorgeous waterfront, solid hikes, and scenic spots for a summer picnic. But there’s a lot more than bluffs and hockey going down. Lift Bridge Brewery—named after Stillwater’s iconic lift bridge—is an underappreciated jewel in a state where Surly, Bauhaus, and Bent Paddle hoard the craft brew love. In the summer, Nelson’s Ice Cream and the aptly named Lumberjack Days food and music festival make the trip worthwhile. In the winter, it’s the massive Ice Castles nestled along the riverbank. And in the warmer months, you can take advantage of the fact that most restaurants downtown tout a patio with a view."
