Things To Do in Chisago Lakes, Minnesota
Chisago Lakes, Minnesota, is made up of five communites; Chisago City, Lindstrom, Center City, Schafer, and Taylors Falls. We chose to move to this area because there is always something fun happening, beautiful scenery, and outdoor recreation. As you will hear in our interview with Jill, there is a ton of fun events in the summer! From strawberry picking and farmers’ markets to festivals, live music, and theater. Plus, lake recreation including fishing, pontooning, and paddle boarding, or shopping and antiquing, hiking at a state park, and stopping at one of the many wineries in the area or our favorite brewery, Uncommon Loon. Cheers!
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
Adopt a Rescue Dog – Ruff Start Rescue
We partnered with Ruff Start Rescue and Best Friends Animal Society to feature one adoptable dog each month. We are passionate about rescue dogs and have two of our own, the Explore Local Together mascots, Allen and Carol.
Meet Hoover!
Hoover is so cute! He is also very affectionate-once you are his person he will crawl into your lap and rest his head. He is very cautious of strangers and will bark, but when introduced with treats he quickly becomes your best friend. Hoover loves his walks and slips right into his harness so his walk can begin. He would love to find an active family for hikes and walks! Meal time for Hoover is his absolute favorite! He’ll rush to his crate so he can dive into his kibble.
Hoover’s ideal home would be a quiet home in a rural setting. We’re looking at you, Chisago Lakes!
