With over 1000’ of lake shore, this property sits at lake level making it superb for swimming. Located at the end of the road for privacy, the property is secluded with mature oak trees for the perfect relaxing vacation. The garage is setup for enjoying the lake days with a patio and small bar/counter area, full size refrigerator, oven, table and chairs and tear away screen (this space is our favorite!). We’ve even had sleepovers in this space (air mattresses with sheets and blankets available). A bunk room pairs as a storm shelter built to withstand winds up to 200 mph! This is truly a unique property that offers many memories to be made! We offer the use of a pontoon for $650/stay. Lake Ida is a large clear lake (sandy bottom) with three public accesses. The lake has a couple sandbar spots that are fun to spend the day at. Or if fishing is your thing, Lake Ida is one of the top lakes in the area for walleye, large and smallmouth bass and northern pike. Some of our best catches have been right off our dock! If you wish to take a break from the lake, Alexandria, recently voted Best Town in Minnesota, is just 10 minutes away. Things to do and see include: charming local shops, unique and delicious restaurants, Copper Trail Brewery, Carlos Creek Winery, Big Ole and the Central Lakes Trail. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Smart TV - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Boat - Water park - Basketball nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Hunting nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age: 26 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Welcoming dogs only 2 total pets ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector with you on the trip Host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.
