Lake Ida Quiet Getaway
When you think of a Minnesota summer sunrise on the lake, this home has it! Located on the west side of Lake Ida in beautiful Douglas County, MN, this lake home has just what you need for your perfect summer lake getaway! This 4 bedroom, 3 bath home has plenty of space for that multi-family getaway, or for just your family to spread out and relax. With a large living room that is open to the dining area and kitchen, the whole family can be together at meal time. The lower level walks out to the lake and has another large family room for games and that quality family time you've been looking forward to! The lake is sandy and shallow and the kids will love doing a "cannon ball" off the end of the dock, and just maybe mom and dad will too! With multiple decks and patios around the house and next to the lake, theres plenty of space to enjoy the sun or take in all the views of the lake. You'll find plenty of space to sit, relax and unwind! In the evening, enjoy a nice campfire next to the lake, or enjoy the fireplace on those cool rainy Minnesota summer nights. Just minutes from Alexandria, you'll find plenty of activities for a family on the go as well. Sit back, relax, rest and unwind, your vacation is waiting!

Great Family Cabin Vacation!
We enjoyed several water activities ~ kayaking, paddle board, swimming, splash pad was a favorite, fishing was great, and boating! The kids enjoyed the sand by the boat house, had bonfires and roasted marshmallows for smores, enjoyed sitting by the lake, eating outside on the deck at the large family table. The cabin is spacious with several bedrooms and full bathrooms for all of us. Thank you again for sharing your lake home ~ we had a wonderful time! 🎣☀️

Lake Front Vacation
We had a great family vacation week!
The VRBO had wonderful outdoor space with views of Lake Ida from 3 levels. Our grandsons had a good time fishing, kayaking and using the Lilly Pad.
We also rented a pontoon and enjoyed our time on the water. The home was very comfortable for relaxing and cooking meals.

September trip
The property was wonderful - enjoyed it very much. The only issue was the incorrect WI-FI information on the VRBO site. It should be updated with the correct network name and location of the password in the house.

Absolutely beautiful- we had a great time
Our family vacation at this property was outstanding. We also rented the pontoon- we used every day to explore the lake. The house was clean and perfect for our family. The kitchen was well equipped and addressed all our needs. We had to call the property manager and he responded immediately. Very happy with our rental.

House on the Lake.
Property and all the amenities that went with it were great. The house had plenty of room for all three families, the yard a lot of room for the kids to play, and the pontoon along with the water toys was enjoyed by everyone.
