Why Should You Choose Excelsior as Your Neighborhood?

Excelsior is steeped in history, founded in 1853 by New York colonists. Excelsior is distinguished from other suburban communities by its unique blend of old and new and its modest downtown and historic feel.

Excelsior is a one-square-mile region with a population of 2,397 located on the shores of Lake Minnetonka, only 20 minutes from downtown Minneapolis. “The Minnehaha,” a recently rebuilt riverboat that travels round trip from Excelsior to Wayzata, as well as a restored streetcar and museum, help to preserve a piece of the city’s past.

This “little town” is a great location to live in since it has antique shops, specialized shops, restaurants, a theater, and a bed-and-breakfast inn. Excelsior has family-friendly attractions such as The Commons, a park and leisure area featuring a swimming beach, playground, tennis courts, baseball diamonds, picnics, and The Southwest Regional Light Rail Transit Trail, popular with bicyclists and pedestrians.

A thriving and vibrant town, Excelsior hosts several community activities sponsored by the Excelsior-Lake Minnetonka Chamber of Commerce. Every year, thousands of visitors flock to Excelsior to enjoy Art on the Lake, 4th of July festivities, and Apple Day in the fall. In Excelsior, life is good.
