What are your favorite things to do in St. Peter?
⚠️ This one's a little longer—but stick with me. I need your help at the end.
If someone asked you, “What should I do in St. Peter, Minnesota?”—where would you send them?
I just wrote A Girls’ Weekend in St. Peter, Minnesota: Shop, Eat & Experience—my version of a great weekend in our community.
Coffee. Local shopping. Great food. A patio. A walk. Girlfriends. Maybe a little something new for your closet. ❤️
But MY perfect St. Peter weekend isn't YOUR perfect St. Peter weekend.
And that's exactly why I'm asking.
There are so many reasons people visit St. Peter, Minnesota, and I know I'm missing some of the best ones.
Maybe you're here for Gustavus.
Maybe you love St. Peter history.
Maybe your perfect southern Minnesota day trip includes hiking, biking or getting outside.
Maybe you know where to take the kids.
Maybe you're a foodie who could plan an entire weekend around St. Peter restaurants.
Maybe you know the perfect date day, girls’ weekend, family weekend or quiet Sunday morning.
I want to hear YOUR St. Peter.
👉 LOCALS: Tell me your perfect St. Peter day in the comments.
👉 BLOGGERS & CREATORS: Have you written about St. Peter or southern Minnesota? Drop your link. I'd love to read it—and possibly share it.
👉 BUSINESSES & ORGANIZATIONS: What's an experience visitors shouldn't miss? Tell us and tag the business, attraction or organization so everyone can find it.
👉 EVERYONE: Tag the friend who always knows where to go and what to do. I want her recommendations, too. 😉
I'd love to turn these recommendations into more guides that help visitors discover things to do in St. Peter, MN, where to eat in St. Peter, downtown St. Peter shopping, local attractions and ideas for a Minnesota day trip or weekend getaway.
There is far more happening here than any one of us knows about.
That's part of what we're working to share through Experience St. Peter—and I'd love for our local businesses, residents, Gustavus community, Chamber and tourism partners to help us tell that story.
Here's my first one:
