We tried the Fajita and Margarita cruise and liked it for the most part. The downside was, we did it on a cold, rainy night in October so there wasn't much of a view and it got dark halfway through the cruise -so then there was no view! Of course, this was not the fault of the business. Just something to keep in mind when you book. There is no dedicated parking for this business, so you just fine what you can nearby. You might end up quite a ways away, so be prepared to walk. Check in was quick and simple. Unlike other similar cruises I've been on, they assign you to a table. Tables seat 6-8 so if you are a couple, you will likely be sharing a table with others. The interior of the boat is very pretty. Lots of big windows and mirrors surfaces, so wherever you are seated, you're aware of the outdoor views. There are 2 enclosed levels and the 3rd level is open. The bar is in the 2nd level and the food buffet is on the first level. Part of the deal for this cruise was 2-for-1 margaritas. We gave that a shot but weren't too impressed so switched to beer and wine. There is a limited selection of both. I'm not sure if there were other drink options. It's a small bar. They do have table service for drinks and those people really move! You want have to wait long for a drink. They're very friendly and attentive. Note: The bar does not take credit cards. Bring cash with you. The fajita buffet was good but nothing special. Chicken, carnitas, beans, rice. Some chips and salsa also, but the chips were stale. Overall, it was good and we would probably do it again in nice weather since the views on the St. Croix are really what you're there for.

The view was absolutely beautiful! The food was great! I booked for my fiancé's birthday it was a wonderful time! I'll be back

The cruise down the St. Croix River was great except where I wanted to be was the FREAKIN SMOKING SECTION! WTF? I loved being outdoors on the deck but have to stay out of the sun (I sunburn easy). So the back of the second deck had a lovely awning over it-which is where I would have stayed the entire time but smokers were lighting up even before we cast off. How annoying. Yuck! We did try the fajitas, which I probably would have liked any other day, but it smelled/tasted like cigarette ash. I wonder if they have a non-smoking cruise

We took the whole family and some friends out on the river for my mother's 60th bday. The cruise went very well. We love the St. Criox so it was a no brainer! The food was pretty standard fair. chicken, potatoes. I have to say the little apple pancake things were hideous and i cringe thinking about it. But all in all a great trip.

See all

The charter service operates from a little past flood season in the spring until early October. We chartered them for a groom's dinner. The boat is both elegant and comfortable. It is nicely appointed but they don't allow stiletto heels or black soled shoes (it wrecks the decks) so you have a good excuse to kick off your shoes and relax. The cruise was a great alternative to renting a hall or private room in a restaurant and the price is comparable. We had about 25 in our party. It POURED for most of our cruise, but the boat has a large indoor lounge area and there was enough seating for everyone. Besides the captain, we had two really friendly, competent servers who kept us all dry and made sure the bar and buffet stayed well stocked. Food is all buffet style, catered by the Lake Elmo Inn (yum!) and ranges from appetizer trays to full meals. Meals range from lunch buffet ($15/person) to Captain's Choice ($38/person) with a minimum of 20 people. Drinks extra; they have a compact but full bar. Summer on the St. Croix is fleeting and fabulous--take advantage of this while you can!
