About Big Rock Creek
Big Rock Creek is a historic venue in St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin, about 45 minutes from the Twin Cities. The stunning property offers nearly 1,000 acres of extraordinary panoramic views of the countryside. The main building on the property is the barn. Heated and cooled to host groups year-round, the barn boasts 200-year-old timbers made from old ties and trestles from a railroad bridge in downtown Boston. Today, the barn is a focal point for guests and events, which include weddings, reunions, retreats, parties, holiday festivals and seasonal events. Big Rock Creek offers glamping and camping sites and onsite lodging options, all of which are updated with modern amenities but still feature preserved details like original wood-burning fireplaces, timbers and historical details. Big Rock Creek is a place that will touch your heart and nourish your soul, leaving fond memories and a constant urge to return.
