Apartments near Excelsior, MN

“I've lived here for over 3 years now. The apartment does exactly what it needs to. The price is very affordable and cozy. The thing Bay Pointe does that sets them apart is they are very fast at repairing any issues that arise. It can be as quick a few hours after the request is sent. I've had nothing but positive experiences with Bay Pointe!”

“I would highly recommend this place for so many reasons; the community, quality of living, and definitely the kindness that people here bring. Today I had to request some maintenance for a light going out and got an immediate response from Terrence, who helped me out super quickly and was the nicest guy ever! I give him and this place the highest praises!”

“I’ve had such a great experience living at Venue on 78th! The building is clean, modern, and well-maintained, and the amenities really make it feel like home. The apartments are spacious with beautiful finishes, and everything is kept in excellent condition.

Tonya, the office manager, is absolutely incredible. She’s professional, welcoming, kind, and genuinely cares about the residents. Any questions or concerns are handled quickly and with such a positive attitude. She truly goes above and beyond.

Scott in maintenance is also amazing! He’s responsive, efficient, and always makes sure things are taken care of properly. It’s so reassuring knowing maintenance requests are handled quickly and done right the first time.
I highly recommend living here — the management and maintenance team really make all the difference!”

“The Property Manager, Patti and Asst. Property Manager, Leisa were exceptional in describing the features of 1700 and made us feel like we would be joining a new home. They were a big reason why we chose to live there.”

“My family relocated from out of state to Minnesota in April 2025. After nearly 6 months, I can confidently say that The Carrick is the most charming property in a relatively quiet and distinctly quaint area…close to the largest lake system in the twin cities and accessible to countless amenities. The community has an excellent layout with two buildings - townhouses on the first 2 levels and apartments above. The townhomes are well constructed, and have premium appliances, even speed ovens! If you know, you know! The thing that sets the Carrick apart and takes it into solid 5 star territory, however, is the property manager, Christian. If you read the other reviews, you will see that I am not the only person who noticed that Christian is key to the living experience here. Christian is genuinely kind, straightforward, honest, and authentic with endless patience and high standards. Like any rental property, there are issues from time to time, the difference is that as a tenant you will always have a voice. Concerns are addressed swiftly and effectively. Christian is very keen on keeping the property up to the very highest standards. After renting for over a decade in New York City and other parts of the country, I can say that I have never lived in a community that is better managed. We also have wonderful neighbors and we have made many friends here. I personally don’t think there is a better property in the Twin Cities area. I highly recommend the Carrick! PS, did I mention that we have a Hazelwood food and drink on property?! :-)”

“Great Apartment, Highly Recommend!

I’ve been living here for six months, and it’s been a fantastic experience. The apartment is spacious, with modern finishes, high ceilings, and lots of natural light. The kitchen is well-equipped.

The building offers great amenities. Amanda is great and always around to help. Tenzin is on site and most issues get resolve same day.

Parking is secure, and I feel safe here with controlled access. Overall, it’s been a great place to live, and I highly recommend it!”

“We moved to the Mist about 6 months ago after leaving our lifetime hometown, 300 miles away. Our children & grandchildren live in Mound & it was time to be closer to watch our grandchildren grow up. We looked at more than 10 condo, townhouse, apartment settings & nothing compared to The Mist. The quality of the building, appliances, , decor , underground parking , lake view etc was all very impressive. The staff was so helpful from Day 1. Any questions or maintenance issues are taken care of immediately.. The staff of Barbie, Suzan, Tim & Antonio are amazing! Meeting other residents at the gathering in the beautiful Club room made us feel welcome immediately. Our kids & grandkids love coming to visit , especially now when the entire lobby & Club room is decorated like a Christmas wonderland! ?❤️??
We know we made the best choice possible when we chose the Mist as our new home!”

“I have lived at the Stax apartment complex in Long Lake, MN, since they opened in 2023, and my experience has been fantastic. I recently upgraded from a 1-bedroom to a 2-bedroom apartment, and the transition was seamless. The new building management team, Ashley and Grace, have been exceptional throughout my time here. They are incredibly kind and always ready to help. Whether it's a question or an issue, they respond promptly and handle everything swiftly. Their dedication to ensuring residents have a positive living experience is truly commendable. I highly recommend Stax for anyone looking for a great place to live with outstanding management.”

“Beautiful townhomes inside and out. The layout is optimal for abundant natural.light, and the open design gives it an expansive yet cozy feel. With the mature trees and proximity to water, it gives the feel of being in a nature preserve. A lovely place to call home! Sally, from the leasing team, is excellent to work with and very knowledgeable about the area!”

“I truly enjoyed my time living here! The management was amazing—always kind, professional, and willing to work with me whenever I needed assistance. I never had any issues during my stay, and they went above and beyond to make my move-out process smooth and stress-free. They were fair and didn’t charge me any unexpected fees, which I really appreciated.

The community itself is beautiful, especially in the summer. I’ll miss walking along the peaceful trails and enjoying the scenery. I highly recommend living here for anyone looking for a great place to call home!

Thank you Kelly and Art!”

“We love it here! The people are very friendly and easy to get to know. People here are willing to help each other.Our manager is very nice and helpful.If she doesn’t know the answer she find out for you?”

“Had such a great experience with the landlord, lived here 1.5 years and he was always available to fix anything that needed repaired and was overall just very friendly and helpful! Great spot, lots of places within walking distance and had friendly neighbors in the apartment.”

“I’ve enjoyed living here. The community has people from all walks of life, and everyone is friendly—my neighbors always say hi and I’ve had zero problems with anyone.

The location is super convenient with a gas station and a Domino’s within walking distance, plus plenty of paths to walk on. Parking is usually easy, and garage parking is available for around $60/month (you do have to keep it for your whole lease) but it’s convenient if you want covered parking!!!!

Maintenance has been great and responsive every time I’ve put in a request. I see them zooming all over on there golf carts. My closet door broke and they put screws in it to fix it nothing fancy but works for me! The office staff is professional and helpful. The gym/workout/basketball area is clean, safe, and actually enjoyable to use, and overall the building feels secure. Kids and teens do like to go to the main building to play pool and listen to music. Feels safe and fun. Vending machines all over the property. So nice to have!

Rent is separate from internet and electricity, and there is a monthly service fee that covers trash, gas, water, sewer, and pest control. For me, it’s been about $100/month depending on occupancy. Laundry is $2.50 to wash and $2.50 to dry I believe.

I’d recommend. It is spendy keep that in mind. Living in such a big community nothing is perfect but they strive to make it. ?”

“This place was awesome lived there for two years got more than a fair price. Fishing, swimming, bike path right out the back can’t beat it. Walking out for work in the morning at the lake side exit with a beautiful sunrise every time. Good restaurants a bike distance away. Fridge went out once and I had a replacement the same day. Got my whole deposit back besides 100$ since I didnt have the carpet cleaned which I was told to. Landlord was always quick to respond. Would highly recommend everyone to try life out on the lake, how can you complain about that..”

“I've lived at Vicksburg Village for over a year now, and what sets this community apart is the unparalleled maintenance team and top-tier leasing management.

Any time I've submitted a maintenance request — whether it's a water heater issue or a broken appliance — the response has been incredibly fast, often within the same day. The maintenance crew is not only quick but also professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. It’s rare to find such consistent, high-quality service.

Equally impressive is the leasing office staff. From the moment I toured the property, the team was warm, transparent, and helpful. They’ve continued to go above and beyond to support residents — whether it's helping with package deliveries, lease questions, or just being a friendly face in the office. It’s clear they genuinely care about the community.”
