Peaceful Reflections on Lake Ida

Come and experience our family friendly year round vacation cabin! It is the perfect getaway, with a spacious layout for multi/extended family trips.
Featuring a wraparound deck to enjoy your morning coffee as you watch pristine Lake Ida wake up and at the end of a amazing day on the lake enjoy the magnificent sunsets. The cabin is located steps away from the sandy bottom lake with depths increasing slowly for the younger swimmers and optimal for wading out to the sandbar just off the dock. Bald eagle sightings are prominent and the loons are always calling!
Take a break from the lake and head into Alexandria (recently voted best town in Minnesota) for all of the local attractions. Including Casey's Amusement Park, ample downtown shopping, delicious local restaurants, and so much more! There are many local wineries and breweries that are close to the cabin/lake. Including, Carlos Creek Winery/22 Northmen Brewery, Rolling Forks Vineyard, LEtoile du Nord Vineyard, and Thousand Lakes Brewery are just a few. The cabin is also close to the public access and many beautiful area golf courses.
At night we invite you to enjoy the outdoor fire pit that is right off of the deck, and sit by the lakeside for optimal stargazing skies!
Our cabin features a large kitchen that is fully equipped with utensils, toaster, can opener, plates, cups, silverware, gas stove, microwave, dishwasher, coffee bar, refrigerator/freezer and open concept living area. In main living area enjoy a good book, some hot chocolate, and the indoor fireplace.
The upstairs has 3 bedrooms, 2 with queen beds and 1 with 2 twin beds. And downstairs has 2 bedrooms, 1 with a king bed (en-suite bathroom)and 1 with a queen. All 3 bathrooms are full baths. All bed linens, bath towels, and beach towels are included.
The dining area is perfect for large family dinners or family game night!
We invite you to enjoy the peace and relaxation of lakeside living on Lake Ida.

A Beautiful Stay at Peaceful Lake Ida
My friends and I enjoyed a relaxing weekend at this beautiful lake property. The cabin is well appointed for a group stay—plenty of comfortable beds, a well-supplied kitchen, and lovely outdoor spaces right on the lake shore. The homeowners went out of their way to make the cabin welcoming and to communicate the many options for activities in the area.

Exactly as described
Our stay at the lake was great for our girls weekend. The accuracy of the listing left no surprises. Teresa reached out with different happenings at nearby businesses which was helpful. The proximity to the winery is convenient. The cab service from town will pick up/drop off from the home. We would love to stay again when we visit the area in the future!

Wonderful property!
We had a wonderful stay! Before the trip we received a text with check in details and recommendations of things to do in the area. On our way up they let us know the cleaners were done and we could check in - super helpful! The cabin was clean and really well stocked. There were 5 of us and we had plenty of room for all of us. We loved the view of the lake. The location was great too - close to Carlos Creek Winery and Lake Carlos state park. Not too far from shopping in Alexandria either. Would definitely rent again!

Girls weekend
My girlfriends and I from high school got together and had so much fun! The house was perfect for us. Beds are comfortable and everything was so clean. We had everything we needed there so we didn’t need to go anywhere. All 7 of us were able to hang out in the living room comfortably. We will be coming back I’m sure!! Thank you for everything!
