WHAT MAKES

Ely One Of Minnesota’s Most Charming Communities

Many communities in Minnesota showcase why it is an excellent place to live, but the small town of Ely is particularly charming. Home to around 3,300 residents, Ely is a tranquil place steeped in natural beauty. Let’s explore some characteristics that make Ely one of Minnesota’s most charming communities.

Easy Access to Incredible Natural Destinations

Located at the main entrance to Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, Ely is surrounded by the immensity of one of the country’s most important ecosystems. Spanning about 1,090,000 acres, Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness is the largest natural area east of the Rockies.

Minnesota is nicknamed the “Land of 10,000 Lakes,” and there are thousands of them in the Ely area. The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness features expansive lakes and rivers that visitors can explore. They can also spot a diverse array of wildlife, from moose and deer to bears and wolves.

Limitless Outdoor Adventure

Ely’s unique setting allows residents and visitors to enjoy non-stop recreational adventures. Boasting more than 1,200 miles of canoe routes throughout the area, Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness is most popular for canoeing and kayaking, and much of the park can only be explored on the water. It is also a popular destination for overnight camping and contains more than 2,000 solitary campsites.

The list of Ely’s year-round outdoor activities continues. With its vast waterways, it only makes sense that fishing is a common pastime. On dry land, visitors can enjoy incredible hikes, ATVing, birding, and golfing at nearby golf courses. The town’s common winter recreation activities include snowmobiling, Nordic skiing, and ice fishing.

Charming Town with a Laid-Back Feel

Ely itself is a quaint, welcoming place that, while small, still offers plenty for residents to do. The downtown area has brick storefronts and an all-American charm that draws people in. It is an underrated shopping destination, comprising boutique stores with handmade goods, shops with outdoor gear, and local art galleries. Ely also has excellent local restaurants that offer fresh catches, delicious steaks, and tasty desserts.

Plenty of intriguing attractions make Ely stand out. The North American Bear Center is a non-profit that allows visitors to watch live black bears in an expansive natural habitat. The Bois Forte Heritage Center and Cultural Museum includes intriguing exhibits dedicated to Ojibwe residents. Also, the International Wolf Center is dedicated to preserving native wolf populations, and you can see some of the resident wolves that the center has fostered.

LET ME HELP YOU FIND YOUR NEXT HOME!

I was born and raised in Kansas City and moved to Iowa just before middle school. In 2010, I moved to Minnesota and instantly fell in love with the Twin Cities. When I first moved here, I started out in youth, education, and music ministry for Hope Community Church in Minneapolis and City on a Hill Church in Rosemount. My wife must have seen something in me because she mentioned on numerous occasions that I might be good at real estate. So I looked into it and eventually joined Liz Johnson’s team at Remax Results in 2018. The Liz Johnson team is extremely adept at helping people find and sell homes at nearly every stage of life; whether you’ve just graduated from college looking for a condo or you’re a family of six selling your third house. We’ve done it all and we absolutely love what we do.

When I’m not buying and selling homes, my wife, one year old daughter, and two dogs love going for walks and keeping us on our toes. I also love hiking at national parks, competitively running, kayaking, hitting up the best burger joints in the Twin Cities, going to the movies, and cheering on teams from the Kansas City area (city of champions, am I right?). All in all, if you’re looking to buy or sell a home, you can count on the Liz Johnson team and I to provide personalized service, expert advice, and excellent resources for all of your real estate needs. Don’t hesitate to reach out or refer me to a friend or family member in need of a reliable realtor team. We’re here to help!

GET TO KNOW DAN FITZGERALD

I have lived in Southern Minnesota since 1975 and enjoy our small, tight knit community. Faith based decision making has always led me in the right direction. Following Jesus Christ is obviously the most important aspect of day to day life. That being said, I love showing, listing, selling, negotiating and even moving homes of all sizes and price ranges. Whether it be residential, commercial or agricultural properties, I have the knowledge and experience to answer all the tough questions and handle all the sometimes complicated issues that arise in the real estate world. South Central Minnesota is basically where I have the most market knowledge. I also own the local moving company for a “one stop shop” scenario when searching for a new home or business. Please do not hesitate to call, text or email me for professional advice with a touch of compassion.

GET TO KNOW JACK

BOYD

Hi, my name is Jack Boyd the son, grandson, and great grandson of general contractors. By the age of eleven I was painting, scrapping out, and sweeping. Age thirteen I was mixing mud, caring blocks, and hand nailing subfloors… So it is no surprise I too became a general contractor… Then came the crash of 89, a horrific crash where I was rear ended at a stop sign by a drunk driver going over 95mph!! This ended my building career in Seattle, WA

I returned to college and became a certified watchmaker. I also obtained the crown jewel of Swiss watchmakers with a certificate from WOSTEP (WOSTEP, the Watchmakers of Switzerland Training and Educational Program), a very intense undertaking. After declining a job offer from Rolex of New York I opened a watch and clock repair shop, however, the injuries to my back and neck would not allow me to sit for hours hunched over my workbench. I closed my shop and spent the next eleven years overseas as a missionary planting churches.

In Hong Kong I met my wife, in Australia our son was born, and just before going to Taiwan our daughter was born in the US! When our kids were old enough for school my family and I moved back to the US and we settled near Rochester Minnesota. My love of building homes drove me back into the classroom where I became a Realtor… And now I use my knowledge of building homes for over thirty years to satisfy a passion to help people as it is a great and serious undertaking to purchase a home or to sell one.. I might not build them anymore but I am in the industry again and would love to help you find your next home or sell your existing home…
