The Ranch of Credit River

The rapid growth of the Twin Cities suburbs means acreage lots are getting tougher to come by. But that’s not the case at The Ranch of Credit River. Luxury acreage living is what it’s all about here. Homeowners enjoy expansive lot parcels at 2.5 acres or larger among rolling hills, wooded areas and ponds, providing plenty of room to stretch your legs.

Once home to Irish immigrants who farmed the lush land located at the eastern end of Scott County, Credit River has experienced tremendous growth in recent years yet still hangs onto a hometown feel. Back in those early days, Credit River Township’s business section consisted of a creamery, town hall, and a general store. Today the area is still a countryside oasis nestled in between Prior Lake to the west, Savage to the north, and Lakeville to the east. But things have definitely changed for this highly sought-after location.

Within 15 minutes of The Ranch of Credit River, nature lovers can golf, explore park land, and also enjoy the lake life that Minnesota is known for. Clearly Lake Regional Park, Spring Lake Regional Park, and Murphy Hanrehan Park Reserve, all part of the Three Rivers Park District, offer nature trails, picnic areas, outdoor activities for families, and much more. The Cleary Lake Off-Leash Dog Park will become your dog’s favorite place for exercising and meeting new friends. And nearby Spring Lake and Prior Lake offer some of the best recreational boating in the state.

Golf lovers will enjoy the close proximity to four top courses: Bracketts Crossing Country Club, Heritage Links Golf Club, Legends Golf Club, and The Wilds Golf Club. Each offers its own distinct level of challenging play, and some have even hosted MGA and USGA events. Golfers enjoy the lush greenery and mature trees that the area is known for.

Food-lovers in the area can agree on one thing: there’s plenty of delicious options south of the Mississippi River. Visit Charlies on Prior, Prior Lake’s only waterfront restaurant, for an eclectic mix of dishes, three bar areas and live music, or PLate in downtown Prior Lake. Heading toward Lakeville, you’ll find Rudy’s Redeye Grill, Northern Taphouse, The Chart House, and Barley + Vine—all local favorites. In Savage, Pau Hana offers Pacific Rim delicacies expertly crafted by a chef who spent a decade cooking in Hawaii alongside prominent Hawaiian chefs.

If a day at the brewery is more your style, you’re in luck. Two breweries—Lakeville Brewing and Boathouse Brewing—offer an array of craft beers, occasional live music, and food options (including a rotation of food trucks).

Own your piece of this exclusive, picturesque neighborhood, tucked away in the farmland of Credit River yet so close to all modern conveniences and within the award-winning 194 Lakeville school district. Easy access to highway 35W means you’re a quick drive to Minneapolis or St. Paul and all the areas in between.
