A post office was established as Maple River Junction in 1877, and renamed Maple River in 1883; the post office remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1968.[2][3] The community took its name from a nearby stream lined with soft maple trees.[4]
Maple River's population was 76 in 1902,[5] and 108 in 1925.[6]
