About the Community of Excelsior
Excelsior, located on the shores of Lake Minnetonka, is just a 20-minute drive west of Minneapolis. The city offers its residents a relaxed and personalized atmosphere, with virtually no heavy industry. Excelsior successfully blends old and new, with an attractive combination of preserved historic buildings and newer contemporary structures. The city is known for its abundance of specialty shops, antique shops and clothing stores, which offer exceptional merchandise and craftsmanship. The historic Old Log Theater, the Christopher Inn and the James H. Clark House are all in Excelsior. Excelsior Commons, created in 1853, is a large public park on Lake Minnetonka.
