Family Friendly Lake Home close to town

Plan your winter getaway now! With over 500 lakes in the county, there is no shortage of ice fishing or other winter activities. A nice portable fish house is available for use. This spacious home is just literally seconds from the area's snowmobile trails. There is plenty of room for your group to play or relax both inside and out. There is a spectacular lake view right from the house. We are less than 3 miles to town on paved roads so everything is very convenient.

Great multi-family rental!
Great rental with the perfect layout for multiple families. It was clean, the kitchen was well stocked, the area was beautiful, and it was close to downtown Alexandria. The owner was accomodating and quick to communicate.

Roomy
Loved the deck and overlooking water. Plenty of room for 7 and clean. Disappointed in grill as not clean or usable. More kitchen towels were needed also. Close to fun things in Alexandria so that was nice! Would stay again!!

We were a group of 8 women. We stayed and went to the grape stomp. We had a great time! The house was wonderful and as described. We all loved the comfy couch in the living room! The deck and the view were awesome as well!

Attention to detail
It was obvious the owners have tried to anticipate the needs of their guests, from a well-stocked kitchen to outside amenities. This house was clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated with a large backyard. The owners were quick to respond to my questions. We rented a pontoon from nearby and enjoyed a day on the lake. Also attended a wedding at near by Carlos Creek Winery which is worth visiting. House is close enough to town for a quick grocery run. We would defintely recommend staying here.
