You're driving along the Mississippi on the Great River Road with the bluffs rising above you on one side and the expanses of Lake Pepin on the other.

Sights and natural beauty, counted as some of the most beautiful in the country, are around each curve.
This is Maiden Rock country. Maiden Rock township and village: a quiet, historic river and railroad settlement surounded by rolling farmland and creek gullies rustling with wild turkey and deer set at the Mississippi's edge, providing shelter and wetlands for thousands of birds on their yearly journeys along the Mississippi Flyway.
