At the center of life in Monticello is a river and all the wildlife and recreation it attracts. Quiet river islands meet trumpeter swans. Acres of parkland meet lush riverbanks. The National Great River Road meets the Mississippi River Trail. Best of all, from a tree-lined St. Benedict’s Community campus conveniently positioned between Broadway Street and Highway 94, you’re only minutes from everything greater Monticello has to offer.
