Apparently, New Ulm is “off the grid.” We prefer unexpectedly worth the trip. 😉

New Ulm was named one the 10 Off-the-Grid Minnesota Towns to Visit in 2026, highlighting our German heritage, festivals, local shops and Schell’s Brewery.

Come for a slower getaway. Stay for the history, food, beer and everything else that makes New Ulm unmistakably New Ulm.

Apparently we're not just a good place to visit. 👀

New Ulm was named one of the cheapest beautiful towns to live in Minnesota — highlighting our Minnesota River Valley views, German heritage, historic downtown, Flandrau State Park, and locally owned businesses.

And with a June 2026 median home sale price of $251,650, we're talking about a place where beautiful surroundings and small-town living don't necessarily come with a big-city price tag.

Not a bad place to call home. ❤️

A state park adventure—minutes from downtown. 🌲

Flandrau State Park covers approximately 1,000 acres along the Big Cottonwood River, with eight miles of trails, wooded scenery, camping and plenty of room to stretch out.

And when you’re ready for lunch, shopping or another attraction, downtown New Ulm is just a short drive away.

It’s the best of both worlds: time outside without leaving the rest of the trip behind.

📍 1300 Summit Avenue
🚗 Minnesota State Park vehicle permit required
