2019 Map of Hudson

About this map

Lake Saint Croix forms a dramatic aquatic border between Minnesota and Wisconsin, defining the character of the riverfront communities on this 2019 survey. The eastern shore is anchored by Hudson and North Hudson, while the western banks are lined with a sequence of residential enclaves including Lakeland, Lake St. Croix Beach, and St. Marys Point. Inland, the terrain is shaped by glacial legacy, featuring numerous small bodies of water like Horseshoe Lake and Sunfish Lake, alongside significant cultural markers such as Bissels Mounds. The area's spiritual and genealogical history is exceptionally well-documented through a dense concentration of burial sites, ranging from the Old Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Cem and Saint Paulus Lutheran Cem to the family-named Fahlstrom Cem. These sites, along with landmarks like Walker Field, illustrate the transition from rural township life to suburban riverfront development.
