Accommodations

Just 35 minutes from MSP airport is the historic town of Stillwater, located on the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway. Along Stillwater's charming streets, you'll find over 100 independently owned shops, galleries, and restaurants. La Pointe, the wedding venue, is a 20-minute drive from Stillwater. Because our wedding is taking place on a busy holiday weekend and Stillwater is a popular destination, we highly recommend booking your lodging as soon as possible. <a href="https://hotelcrosby.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Hotel Crosby</a> is a modern hotel with a rooftop hot tub on the north end of Main Street.
