Between the short days and cold temperatures, winter can start to feel long and dreary. One reliable way to ease the winter blues is to stay active! For some, this means hiking, snowshoeing, or skiing. But you don't necessarily need to shiver outside to get some exercise in the winter. Here are a few unique, local gyms and fitness centers that our real estate agents recommend.
Yoga is an exercise for the mind and body, and one of the best places to practice in the Minneapolis area is YogaFit. This studio offers several flexible membership options, so you can take classes as often as you'd like. Pay $64/month for four classes, or prepay for a 12-month unlimited membership. They also offer discounts for college students.

Whether you're looking for something hot or something cold, if it's something sweet, you'll find it at Fletcher's Ice Cream & Cafe. They have handcrafted ice cream served in scoops, shakes, sundaes, and floats, plus amazing hot chocolate.

Nordic loggers and miners were some of the first people to inhabit the land where the Twin Cities stand today. While both places have grown significantly more diverse over time, you can still find traces of these early influences in both cities' culinary scenes.
Our real estate agents have challenged themselves to visit more Nordic restaurants and food shops in the areas around our St. Paul homes for sale and Minneapolis homes for sale. Here are some of the best ones we've discovered so far.
