Explore Foley, Minnesota, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Foley, Minnesota. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Minnesota or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Foley.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Foley anchors itself amidst a broad, flat expanse of central terrain where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered by the shadow of any distant mountain range. It lies 13.4 miles east-northeast of Sauk Rapids, MN (from Sauk Rapids, MN: bearing 68°T), and is situated 14.2 miles east-northeast of St. Cloud. Cloud. Stony Brook winds its way through the landscape, a steady, quiet companion to the fields that define the regional character. The air here holds a crisp, bracing quality, particularly during the long, deepening winters that settle over the plains and frost the dormant grasses. To the southeast, the wetlands of Bibles Slough State Wildlife Management Area offer a sanctuary for migratory birds, while the modest elevation of Blue Hill rises fifteen miles away as a distant, softened silhouette against the sky. Within this quiet geography, the light at dusk often turns a pale, violet gray, casting long shadows that emphasize the expansive, open nature of the prairie floor.
Foley emerged from the fertile potential of these inland plains, drawing settlers who sought to cultivate the earth and organize a life around the rhythms of the seasons. The local economy remains tethered to the land, reflecting a legacy of agriculture that continues to shape the daily pursuits of its residents. While Rice Lake rests eight miles off as a quiet destination for those seeking the stillness of water, the life of the place remains centered on the commerce and connections built within its own grid. The heritage of the region, marked by Scandinavian and Ojibwe influences, persists in the matter-of-fact endurance of the people who work the soil and maintain the steady, internal pace of the community. Here, the passage of time is measured not by grand events, but by the slow, deliberate turn of the harvest and the quiet dignity of a day’s labor completed under a vast, open sky.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
