Here’s Five Fast Facts About the Best Places for a Winter Getaway:

- 🌨️ Lindstrom - America’s Little Sweden is surrounded by lakes giving this town a one-of-a-kind appearance in the colder months. And if you’re up for some shopping, the two-story Lindstrom Antique Mall is packed with 40 outlets.
- 🏔️ Red Wing - Red Wing Boots has a sizable (see what I did there?) presence here. Its three-story HQ includes a store, an outlet, and a museum, complete with a gigantic Red Wing boot!
- ⛄ Minnehaha - If the weather is cold enough, Minnehaha Falls in the Minnehaha Regional Park could be frozen and it makes for some breathtaking scenery in the middle of a hike.
