This website celebrates the history and natural beauty of the Gordon Flowage. Strictly speaking, it is named the St. Croix Flowage at Gordon, but local residents have called it the Gordon Flowage since its creation (in modern form) in 1935.

"Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children." - Ancient Indian Proverb *
