Hey Friends - to our active, to our quiet, to anywhere in between let's give this another go...
We know there are more gems out there, and a few of you that thought about it and scrolled on, but if you could, please, give some more feedback and input we'd be so grateful ☺️
And if you don't want to comment, but are more of a DM'er we are down for that too.
So Round 2, please share your favs, tag a friend you know that also loves Southern MN, or send us a message so we can add to the community bank of special places.
We appreciate all your input! 💙
Hey, All — what are your favorite hidden gems around Southern MN? 🧭✨
⬇️ Drop them in the comments below
📸 Bonus points if you share why you love it or add a picture too.
We’re working on a project inspired by the hidden gems in our communities — the places people remember, recommend, and keep coming back to because there’s just something special about them. 🤍
- The little downtown shop you always stop at.
- The lake view that never gets old.
- The small-town restaurant worth the drive.
- The trail, event, hidden spot, tradition, or place that just feels like home.
We want to hear about the places that make Southern Minnesota special through the memories, moments, and connections people have built around them.
Too early to share the full details, but if your idea ends up being part of what comes to life, there’ll be something in it for you. ✨
