It is located in Winona County in the southeastern blufflands area of the state. The {{convert|2700|acre|km2|0|adj=on}} park features scenic overlooks and trout fishing in the spring-fed Whitewater River and Trout Run Creek. It has about 300,000 visitors annually, and is located {{Convert|7|mi|km}} north of St. Charles on Minnesota State Highway 74, which runs through the park. Historic structuresThe park's 1930s facilities are listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Whitewater State Park CCC/WPA/Rustic Style Historic Resources. The {{convert|536|acre|ha|adj=on}} historic district includes 29 contributing properties.[2] The district was listed for having state-level significance in the themes of architecture, entertainment/recreation, landscape architecture, and politics/government.[3] It was nominated for its examples of New Deal federal work relief, diverse National Park Service rustic design, and landscape architecture on a challenging site.[4] LandformsThe park's bedrock is lower Paleozoic sedimentary rocks, with limestone and dolomite especially prevalent near the surface. It is highly dissected, and the Whitewater River has cut deep valleys into the bedrock. It is an area of karst topography. LifeformsThe park is located where the Rochester Plateau Subsection and the Blufflands Subsection meet, both of which are part of the Paleozoic Plateau section of the Eastern Broadleaf Forest Province.[5] 2007 floodThe August 18 and 19, 2007 Midwest flooding caused extensive damage to the park. The park is in the Driftless Area, where soils are thin and less able to retain water; they lie atop porous rock into and through which surface waters can rapidly drain into the water table.[6] The steep hills and bluffs and deep coulees give steep gradients to the drainage and makes streams highly erosive. As the rains far exceeded the absorption rate of the soils, flash floods rapidly overflowed the river and spread across the valley floors. About 500 campers were staying in the park at the time.[7] Three bridges were destroyed, and campgrounds, bathhouses, a group dining hall, and water and sewer systems suffered extensive damage. Damage was in excess of four million dollars,[8] and the park was closed to the public on August 20, 2007,[8] and remained closed the balance of the year. On March 1, 2008 it partially reopened, but many of its amenities still had unrepaired damage.[9] References1. ^{{cite web | url={{Gnis3|654109}} | title=Whitewater State Park | date = 1980-01-11 | work=Geographic Names Information System | publisher=United States Geological Survey | accessdate=2015-06-29}} 2. ^{{cite web |title=Whitewater State Park |url=http://www.mnhs.org/places/nationalregister/stateparks/Whitewtr.php |work=Rustic Style Resources in Minnesota State Parks |publisher=Minnesota Historical Society |accessdate=2015-06-29}} 3. ^{{cite web |title=Whitewater State Park CCC/WPA/Rustic Style Historic Resources |url=http://nrhp.mnhs.org/NRDetails.cfm?NPSNum=89001661 |work=Minnesota National Register Properties Database |publisher=Minnesota Historical Society |year=2009 |accessdate=2015-06-23}} 4. ^{{cite journal |last=Anderson |first=Rolf T. |title=National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Whitewater State Park CCC/WPA/Rustic Style Historic Resources |url={{NRHP url|id=89001661}} |publisher=National Park Service |date=1988-09-16 |accessdate=2015-06-28}} 5. ^Ecological Classification System, Paleozoic Plateau Section, Rochester Plateau Subsection, and The Blufflands Subsection; all published by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. 6. ^{{Cite journal | last = Ojakangas | first = Richard W. | last2 = Matsch | first2 = Charles L.| title = Minnesota's Geology | place= Minneapolis | publisher = University of Minnesota Press | year = 1982 | isbn = 0-8166-0953-5}} 7. ^{{cite web| title =Flooding shuts down state's No. 2 campground, ruins hatcheries| publisher =Rochester Post-Bulletin| date =2007-08-25| url =http://www.postbulletin.com/newsmanager/templates/localnews_story.asp?a=304678&z=2| accessdate =2007-08-25}} 8. ^{{cite web| title =Flooding| publisher =MN DNR| year =2007| url =http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/news/flooding.html| accessdate =2007-08-24 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20070825130238/http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/news/flooding.html |archivedate = 2007-08-25}} 9. ^1 Whitewater State Park partially reopens, Minnesota Public Radio, March 1, 2008.
