NOHOA

North Oaks has a rich history brought about by the vision, dedication and hard work of many people. The combined efforts of three in particular, Charles Duncan Gilfillan, James J. Hill, and Louis W. Hill Jr., led to the unique, private and multi-faceted North Oaks community we know today... More than half of the land in North Oaks-3,000 acres-was purchased between 1876 and 1880 by Charles D. Gilfillan with the intent of safeguarding the lakes that were a part of the St. Paul water system. These water rights remained intact when Gilfillan sold the property to James J.
