Chisholm is a small town in the very center of Minnesota's "Iron Range" - home to fame (ever heard of Doc Moonlight Graham?) and a gateway to outdoor adventure. A resurgence of valuing small town life is happening, and Chisholm is prime for a growing population of residents.  

Chisholm has:

• A vibrant night life on our downtown main street (West Lake Street) 
• A large public safety team (police, fire, EMS)
• Low crime rates
• A fishable and paddle worthy lake right in the center of town - Longyear Lake
• Plenty of trail access:
• Redhead MTB Park (world-class mountain biking and hiking) 
• Paved walking path around Longyear Lake that is kept cleared all winter
• Direct access to the Mesabi Trail (165-mile paved path from the Mississippi to the Boundary Waters) 
• Endless ATV and snowmobile trails 
• Beautiful and updated city parks and an in-town campground
• Centrally located among many historic and amenity rich Iron Range towns - stay in Chisholm where you'll find everything needed for an outstanding vacation

 

We hope you visit us soon to find out why we call Chisholm "the Heart of the Iron Range" and "the Center of the Universe"
