This is my first time to this cut your own tree Christmas tree farm. It was a short drive from where I live and I'll make sure I go back there next year they had a great selection of trees and the staff was super nice and very helpful in finding what I needed. Me and my kids walk through the field of trees had a snowball fight and just generally enjoyed being outdoors in the fun environment. We found our tree cut it down tied it on a roof paid the very nice person in the booth who was just a merry Christmas and we're on our merry way home. Very easy experience lots of trees to choose from in a very helpful staff make this a great place to get your Christmas tree. read more

In May we picked our autumn blaze maple and the tree we picked was one of the largest trees in the 3 to 3.5 range. We tagged the tree. One month after picking our tree out, it was delivered and planted for us. It was not the same tree. I measured the circumference and the tree barely had a diameter of 3 inches. I think they do not watch if people move tags on trees claimed by customers. I know this was the case on our tree. We called to discuss and the company was telling us it is not possible. If you pick out a tree be sure to take photo so you identify your tree. Nearly $900 dollars and not satisfied. I'd give zero stars if I could. read more

We went and got our Christmas tree this year from Rum river. It was our first time cutting down a tree. When you enter they give you a map of the farm / where the trees are and pricing. It was simple and easy with LOTS of options. They packed up the tree for us and made sure it was safely on our car before heading home. Great and easy! read more

Went here with our kids for our first time cutting down a Christmas tree. Lots to choose from, and also some really nice pre-cut trees at the front. The Grinch giving tractor rides was the best! He put on a show and took pictures with the kids afterwards. Got to see Santa with a very short line, which was so nice and also do a petting zoo and pony ride! We had the best time and loved how affordable it was as the trees were a great price and all the activities were free! We loved it and can't wait to go back next year! read more

I have been buying Christmas trees here for years! The guys are always awesome. This year, even with the fresh cut my tree is already drying up, not soaking up water like normal. I called and was told I could return it, Michelle was like yeah it is already decorated right! She offered me a free tree next year! So I told her I will buy a tree next year and donate the other tree read more

We have cut down our own tree from Rum River in Oak Grove since 2015. We absolutely love it here. Acres of trees to cut and they have precut trees. They give you a map and a saw at the gate when you first drive in and you're free to drive around and take your time. Never too crowded since there is so much space. We'll never go anywhere else. read more

I purchased a pre-cut Christmas tree from one of the Plymouth tree lots. They had a nice selection of trees and many looked full. The trees were not marked with their height on their price tag so it was a little difficult eyeballing which trees were the proper height for our space. The prices seemed a little higher than in years past but I suppose that's to be expected year over year ($90 for approx. 7'). I was a little disappointed that bailing the tree cost extra and that nobody working asked if we needed help getting the tree onto our car. I was worried that our tree had excess needle fall-out as soon as we began moving it around, which makes me wonder how long it had been harvested with no water. Our tree is up and looks nice, so we'll see how she lasts through the holiday season. read more

Beautiful groves that you have to yourself. You drive in and someone hands you a saw and a map. Easier than a caribou drive thru. Then you set off in your car by a series thickets, ponds and clearly marked dirt roads. Totally dog friendly! I highly recommend making this an annual tradition. I heard your tree lasts longer too!!! read more

For about 10 years we have got out Christmas trees from Rum River. First we cut our own Frasier Fir trees - no longer that have slim to no decent trees left. Charlie Brown wouldn't display what's left. The last 4 years we have purchases pre-cut large trees (12 - 16') they are very expensive $180+. The last 2 years our tall precut trees didn't drink water after a 2" fresh cut and the needles fall like rain! I'm officially done with Rum River!! read more

1000 recommend this place!! Has the absolutely best workers and the best variety's of trees! So respectful and just a great environment!!

Just had them do some bush removal for me at my home in Minneapolis. They were careful not to disrupt gas or my irrigation system. They also took care in taking the roots out and leaving the area raked, clean of debris. This is my third experience with them and have been completely pleased with the work they did. They were professional and fairly priced. read more

I bought a tree a year ago, and this year it was dying after deer damage. They were very fair with me in switching out the damaged tree for a new one. I thought they had great trees to choose from, and have really stood behind their product, which is something that you don't always see these days. They were also very pleasant to deal with, choosing a tree, having it planted, etc. read more

Bought 4 maples from Rum River in 2007. I used Rum River to design where they should be planted, and to plant them. Turns out 2 of the trees were poorly planted, in that they workers didn't separate the roots before planting, and didn't remove encircled roots. Those two trees got root girdling within 7 years and the trees died. The other two maples were planted so close together that now one of them has to be removed because they are competing against each other, and neither is thriving. I wasted hundreds of dollars on those trees, and would not business with Rum River again. read more

While the staff was nice, the cut your own trees were terrible. We searched for a decent Fraser but left without one. After a long drive from Minneapolis through the desolate northern suburbs, it was a huge disappointment. read more

I would give this place ZERO stars if I could. Very disappointed and we will never go back. We drove there the first weekend in December 2012 from South Minneapolis to cut our own tree. We were handed a map and a saw upon entering and were very excited. Until we drove and hiked through the entire property and saw not one tree that was over 3 feet tall. We ran into another family who said, "Have you found anything?" "Nope" we replied. They were leaving as well and heading to Hansens. We left and got ours from the Menard's parking lot instead. I think that they harvested all the good trees and sent them to Xmas tree lots around the metro. They should not advertise that they are a cut-your own tree lot. False advertising. Never going back. read more
