Est. Excelsior, Minnesota
No crowded lobbies. No rushed check-ins. Just considered rooms, a genuine welcome, and the kind of stillness that makes a trip feel like a retreat.
Accommodations
Each room is furnished with natural materials and quiet intention — linen drapes, oak accents, and views that invite you to linger.
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the lake. King bed with Egyptian cotton linens, private balcony, and a deep soaking tub.
A separate sitting area with a gas fireplace, direct patio access to our rose garden, and a rainfall shower with natural stone finishes.
Thoughtfully compact with a queen bed, a dedicated workspace, curated minibar, and a marble bath — everything you need, nothing you don't.
The Experience
We don't believe in one-size-fits-all service. Every stay at Excelsior Manor is shaped around how you want to experience the lake — whether that's a slow morning with a book, a evening walk along the shore, or a day of exploration through the North Shore.
Learn more about us
Locally sourced, made fresh each morning. Pastries from the bakery down the street, eggs from nearby farms.
Real recommendations from people who live here. Restaurant picks, trail maps, and hidden spots you won't find online.
Private walkway to the shore. Kayaks available in summer, ice-skating paths in winter. The lake is your backyard.
Late checkout on request, early check-in when rooms are ready. We'd rather adjust to your schedule than the other way around.

Location
We sit on 3rd Avenue, just steps from the lakefront and a short walk from Excelsior's main street — shops, galleries, and some of the best food in the lake country. Minneapolis is 30 minutes east; the North Shore is an hour north.
