Lake Ida—-great swimming!

Now available for weekend wedding stays! Lake cabin located on Lake Ida! Spacious home comfortably sleeps 13 with 4 bedrooms-two on each level with a full bath on each level plus a half bath on main floor. You can access the wrap around deck right from the kitchen, living room or sunroom. The lower level walkout has 2 bedrooms, large family room, a full bath, as well as a laundry room with laundry sink and an additional refrigerator. The large patio has an outdoor dining space and a gas grill.

Central heat and air, and the garage stall has storage for your gear. The large yard, almost 3/4 of an acre is a great space for the kids to play or for yard games.

Our lake cabin is a comfortable retreat for single or multi generational families, and the amenities can't be beat! Enjoy sunsets from the lower level patio or the second floor deck.

Prime lakeshore with level lot and sand bottom with your own private accessible dock provides a fun and relaxing vacation, whether it's swimming, boating or fishing. Lake Ida is one of the cleanest lakes in the Alexandria area. A water slide, raft, SUP and kayaks are provided. As a bonus, we provide a lift that can hold a boat or pontoon!

This home has the country feel but is located minutes from the many attractions located around Alexandria. Enjoy an afternoon of wine tasting and live events at Carlos Creek Winery, 22 Northmen Brewing Co, and the Sizzle food truck, which are located a little over a mile away. If you are attending an event at Gathered Oaks, we are located within two miles. Other attractions nearby are the Central Lakes Bike Trail, Casey's Amusement Park, as well as many great dining options. Rain or shine, you can enjoy days of exploring all the consignment shops and unique stores in downtown Alexandria. License #2027

A wonderful place to stay!

This was a great place to stay with my friends! We took advantage of the sandy beach and waist deep water! It’s a great place to have people to relax or hangout on the lake. I would highly recommend it to my friends and family!

Great place for a family getaway

We had a great stay with family, a few minor communication issues but nothing serious. One of the pictures shows a bunch of life jackets but I would suggest bringing your own. Overall we had a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Family gathering

This was a great property for our family to gather for a nearby wedding. The location was just right, and the lakeside setting is beautiful. The house was quiet, comfortable and well-kept, and the owners were friendly and responsive.

Nice place

We were the first ones to stay at this house. Overall not bad. They have a few minor things to iron out, some fixing up to do on the house. Slept 9 adults and 3 kids no problem.

Nice property, good housr space but needs a lot of work

Arrived to a dirty house, could not put food in refrigerator until we cleaned. There were no drapes on the downstairs sleeping area and the steps to the downstairs had no gate so tough with little kids. No dishwasher which was on us, did not read thoroughly but no real dish drying towels provided for a big house. Owners live next door which was fine but kids said they felt like someone was always watching them play. The yard was great but the outside deck looks ready to rot they in places. Boat lift was not out far enough in lake and was painful to use for the week. If this property got some tlc it would be amazing but at the high price we paid, it was not.

Labor Day Weekend Stay

Property was very nice and as advertised. Clean up prior to our arrival could have been a bit better as one of the beds had used sheets and there were several other minor items needing cleaning.

Overall we were very satisfied. However, the dock and boat lift situation was less than desirable.
