Stuga House: A historic Carver cottage right on hiking and biking trails | House in Carver
2 Bedroom House in Carver
Looking for a change of scenery in a historic home with miles of trails out the back door? Settle in! This quaint, cozy, historic home located in downtown Carver is the prime location for anyone looking to escape the city and enjoy some of that small town fresh air. Explore our little town’s historic homes and shops, walk the trails of the wildlife refuge right out the backyard, or take off on your bike down the river bike trail that crosses right behind the house. This is a fantastic home base!
About the home:
This historic home built in 1891 as the Alfred and Inga Bom House, was one of several homes in Carvers original Swedish farming community formerly called “Swede Hollow”. This cottage style home features Greek revival architecture, gothic arched window hoods, and was built with buff-colored bricks from the local brickyard.
The home most comfortably sleeps 2, but between the pullout sofa in the living room and the daybed in the second bedroom, up to 4 adults and 1 child could enjoy this space.
Bedrooms:
There is 1 primary bedroom with a king-sized bed. There is a second, smaller bedroom with a small day bed (smaller than a twin size, so best suited for a child). For additional sleeping, the downstairs couch in the living room is a pull-out queen-sized sofa.
Bathroom:
The bathroom is tub-only; it does NOT have a shower. There is not enough overhead space to stand in the tub, so it’s baths only. That said, it is a great spot for a relaxing soak after a day exploring the town and trails.
Parking:
There are two parking spots in the driveway. On-street parking is also available.
Location:
A < 5 minute walk from the quaint shops of downtown Carver, Stuga House also sits on the Ash Street trailhead with direct access to the MN Wildlife Refuge and the MN Bluff Regional Trail.
On foot, you can set off on the Carver Loop Trail, a 2 mile loop through flood plain and river bottom forest. For a more extensive hike, pack some snacks and connect to the Rapids River Trail with over 7 miles of hiking along forested river bluffs! Carver loop is a multipurpose trail open for hiking and biking in the summer and snowshoeing, cross country skiing, and fat tire biking in winter.
Bring your bike, and set off on the MN Bluff Regional Trail, a paved bike trail connecting to the cities of Chaska, Chanhassen, and north to Hopkins. The MN Bluff Regional Trail is open for walking, running, biking, roller skating, and in-line skating. It also gets plowed in the winter!
Just noting again that:
- There is no shower in this home; it is bathtub only.
- The second bedroom bed is a small daybed, smaller than a Twin.
- As with most historic homes, the stairs to the second level are steep and narrow.
