Hunting For Apartments In Elk River

With a population of 22,974, Elk River is a mere forty-five minutes away by car from the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, to the south. You'll have an apartment in the heartland of Garrison Keillor and Sunday radio's A Prairie Home Companion. Let our link to rental listings Apartment Guide help you orient yourself in this cozy snowy Northern outpost. Also, share your love of Mr. Keillor (yes, everyone in Minnesota is required to be in love with him, that's a hard fact) with some of the locals with LocalTalk. It's a popular spot for vacationers who take refuge in cabins way out in the woods, and for those of us who like to hunt; you'll find folks coming in droves in the autumn and winter months. But the city of Elk River has alot to offer the permanent resident as well: they say it's ""Powered By Nature""!

North Country Fare

Check out the city's official page homepage to get a feel for this sleepy little community. As far as natural beauty is concerned, it ranges from the woodland hills to the wide-open prairies. You'll find the Mississippi River here; the Elk River meets it at one of its northern-most points. It's a haven for fisherman too. Some apartments are located amid this wilderness, others in discrete planned communities while still others may be found in downtown Elk's River. Many apartments are offered around the area of Brooklyn Park, which is on the way to the Twin Cities. Citizens enjoy a high quality of life. The Elk River Chamber of Commerce website will connect you with job opportunities, various bargains, community events, business listings and more. Think hiking, biking, skiing, canoeing, ice-skating, golf, these sorts of activities are a big part of what Elk River has to offer. Elk River is a city all it's own, yet it is located in such away to make it the perfect launching-pad for rustic adventure. They hold the Sherburne County Fair in July, and there is also the outdoor food and wine festival ""Taste of Elk River"" in May. You can also hit the beach at Lake Orono, or tour the historic Oliver H. Kelly Farm.

Cultural Attractions & The Downtown In Elk River

An apartment in Elk River, in case you were thinking: ""Oh no! I'll be stuck up in the middle of nowhere, won't I?"" will situate you near all the amenities any urbanite could want. Fitness clubs, the theater, sport stadiums, golf courses, water parks, the many coffee shops, motorsport racetracks, art galleries, restaurants, massage-therapy studios and spa centers, a state-of-the-art public library, and a superb commuter train The Northstar Line providing non-stop service back & forth between the station in Elk River and downtown Minneapolis. It's all there! The Riverfront Concert Series...where to begin? Have a look at the local newspaper the Elk River Star News website and keep up-to-date!

History And Recreation In Elk River

The attractions outdoors are major. The Oliver H. Kelly Farm, still in operation today and ranked #1 attraction in Elk River, is right on the banks of the Mississippi River. It lets visitors see all the old 1860s processes of butter churning, old-fashioned field plowing with oxen and horse powered threshing. Farm stuff! No electricity! Everyone gets a kick out if it. Your apartment will have electricity. But have a look-see at how people used to get things done, and wander around down by the river through the oak forest and prairie. Then take a hike! After exploring any number of these wild outdoor getaways, warm your feet back home by the fireplace if you have one, (out there, if your apartment's in the boonies...) or warm your spirits with some chums at one of the many downtown bars if you're nearby there, drinking a dark & stormy, or a martini, or something....
