Soak in the Views on the Terrace

Stop by and visit one of Stillwater’s hidden gems – the library’s Johnson Terrace. The terrace is the perfect place to soak in Stillwater’s scenery. The sweeping views of the beautiful St. Croix River, stunning church spires, and historic downtown are breathtaking and change with the seasons.

Visit the Johnson Terrace anytime the library is open for a visual treat and outdoor respite. Relax with a book in an Adirondack chair, or gather with friends for lunch at our patio tables (you’ll need to pack your own picnic). Bring your laptop for an outdoor work session using our free wi-fi.

Please note that the Johnson Terrace is not reservable by the public for weddings, fundraisers, or other social events.
