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!

We have partnered with a local pontoon rental business, Toon Tastic Pontoon Rentals LLC. They offer late model pontoons as well as Lily Pads and Tubes.

Awesome Lake home!
We had the pleasure of staying here in August/24. We played in the water, and used all the toys provided. We were lucky enough to see the loons, and hear their soulful song almost every morning. It's always a concern that things aren’t going to be exactly as advertised online, but this home was that and more! It was beautifully maintained including lovely landscaping with a lot of outdoor seating and tables. The kitchen was fully stocked, even with pots/pans and utensils. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. The host/owner was super nice and responsive. Do yourself a solid, and stay at this awesome home! fully stocked kitchen

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.

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.

Excellent!
We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation at this property. We had five adults, and we had plenty of room both inside and outside to be together and to also have our own space. We enjoyed all of our meals at the table on the deck. We had a fire every evening at the fire pit by the lake. We rented the pontoon and spent time on the water every day. The owners are very helpful and friendly. This property is immaculate! The decor is very nice and there is no clutter. We did not have the feeling that we were living in someone else’s personal house, which I have felt in some rental properties. The furniture and the beds are very comfortable. The owners have thought of everything thing: Fully stocked kitchen, games for the kids, and wood for the fire. A bonus is that the neighbors are very friendly, too. We will definitely be back!

Lake vacation
We stayed here for a week with our extended family. 6 adults & 5 kids (7-12 years old). Plenty of space for all. Lake is nice but very choppy with wind - nice sand bar on other end of lake to beach the boat. Clean house. Good communication with owner. Only drawbacks were: lake is too shallow to use the boat lift (drought related) & the shoreline is all rock with rocks/shells in the sand so was hard for our kids to play in the water (sharp on the feet, hard to access). Nice area - if in Alexandria would rent again but will likely look for a space with better beach front for our water loving kids next time!

The property was as advertised. Very clean. Good location on the lake. Unfortunately the water level in the lake was a little bit low so it made using the boatlift a little challenging. Otherwise, we had a great week.

Wonderful property and lake
This was a great home with plenty of space for everyone! The yard was perfect for playing games and the kids love the shallow water by the dock for playing…the water toys were a great amenity. Kitchen was well stocked and the two coffee pots were both put to use each morning by our group. If you head to the sandbar remember your water shoes! We hope to return soon.

Fun in the sun home! Lots of lake toys, beautiful & huge decks!
This lake home is wonderful. Plenty of room for our family of 6 adults. Beds were good. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, dinnerware & kitchen equipment like crockpots, coffee pots, etc. Living room had plenty of seating and dining table sat all of us just perfect. The deck outside overlooking the lake was great! The deck on the boathouse was sweet too! We had great fun with kayaks & paddle boards. There was a lily pad for the water, but we didn’t take it out…I bet it could be a blast. We even rented a pontoon from the owner! Plenty of parking in the back. Overall, this house gives you a true ‘lake’ experience. Exploring Alexandra was fun. We highly recommend Lure Lakeside restaurant! Get the walleye fish & chips! We hope to return some day!
