North Hudson pairs small-village ease with lakefront scenery along Lake Mallalieu and the St. Croix River corridor. Just across the water from Hudson in St. Croix County, and a short hop to Stillwater, it offers a relaxed pace with quick access to regional employers, shopping, and dining. Locals kayak at daybreak, cast for panfish at dusk, and head downstream to the protected waters of the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway, cared for by the National Park Service at the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway.
Community pride shows up in everyday moments—block-to-park strolls, Friday-night games—and in marquee events like the North Hudson Pepper Fest, a late-summer celebration that fills the village with music, food, and friendly competition. Trails and neighborhood parks thread through the area, while the waterfalls, beaches, and year-round trails of Willow River State Park make weekend adventures easy. Families are served by the Hudson School District, with strong academics, activities, and athletics continuing through Hudson High School. Village services are responsive and close at hand via the Village of North Hudson.
From tidy ramblers to lakeside retreats, housing choices reflect a range of budgets and lifestyles.
