Who We Are
The St. Croix Chippewa Tribe of Wisconsin
The St. Croix have five main reservation communities in northwestern Wisconsin. Dotted with lakes, streams, and forests, the reservation lands allow for the traditional harvesting of wild rice, maple syrup, berries, fish, and deer. A strong sense of tradition forms the bedrock of the tribe's thriving business ventures, which include three casinos: St. Croix Casino Turtle Lake, St. Croix Casino Danbury, and St. Croix Casino Hertel, as well as St. Croix Hotels in Danbury and Turtle Lake, Eagle's Landing Campground, and two RV Parks.
History in Wisconsin
With a presence in Northern Wisconsin that spans centuries, the St. Croix people are among the region’s original inhabitants. Their commerce began in the 17th century, developing important partnerships with French traders. Through periods of prosperity and persecution, the St. Croix Ojibwe have persevered, enduring removal from ancestral lands and displacement when it was known as “The Lost Tribe." Today, these proud, resilient people are recognized as business leaders with a rich tradition and culture. They’ve created a regional economic engine that employs thousands and generates millions.
