Remodeled Log Cabin Home Chain of Lakes

Relax and unwind at this spacious log home on beautiful Lake Victoria, part of the Chain of Lakes in Alexandria.

Nestled on a wooded, private lot, this large retreat offers 300 feet of pristine shoreline with a hard sand bottom, perfect for swimming, fishing, and boating. Lake Victoria is 70 feet deep, clean and clear, with 15 feet of water clarity—great for skiing, swimming, and more.

Inside, the home comfortably accommodates large families or groups with 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a generous family room with a gas fireplace, and a four-season knotty pine sunroom showcasing stunning lake views. Step outside to enjoy the private dock, a lakeside patio, and a cozy fire pit—everything you need for lake life relaxation.

Conveniently located just a few miles from downtown Alexandria, you’ll have easy access to snowmobile trails, golf courses, the 55-mile Central Lakes Bike Trail, and countless shopping, dining, and recreational options year-round. The public boat launch is only half a mile away.

Recently remodeled throughout, this home features a new kitchen with granite countertops and stainless appliances, hardwood floors, updated bathrooms, and a stone-surround gas fireplace. You’ll also enjoy the convenience of city water, a water softener, washer and dryer, and Wi-Fi.

Whether you’re looking for fun, relaxation, or a little of both, this Lake Victoria getaway offers it all.

Good experience

Great lake experience which was our main focus. House was large enough and as stated. Not as clean as I would have appreciated but the kitchen was clean and had all we needed to cook for our 4 day stay. Nice grill too.

Could not have been better!!

A wonderful home to spend much needed time with family in. This place feels brand new - so much attention to detail and upgrades around every corner. Clean, comfortable, and had multiple spaces to either spend time with each other or try to get away for a few moments. So spacious! We had 13 people (including kids and a baby) and never felt crowded. We will definitely return. The owner was so helpful and responsive to questions and we appreciated how he handled every detail of our stay. Thank you, Jonah!

Amazing!

The property was everything advertised and more. The owner was phenomenal. We have booked thru VRBO before and this property met our expectations and beyond. The Lake is a hidden gem in the Alexander area and very clean with not much boat traffic. Our family caught a bunch of panfish as fast as you can reel them in. We also caught an abundance of Pike. All fish we caught and released. We could of eaten fish all week! We will definitely be back again!

Wedding

We booked this for 3 days for our daughters wedding weekend. It was very clean and spacious. The porch had great lighting to do hair and makeup. It was nice for the bride to relax by the lake in the morning with bridesmaids. The day after the wedding was so windy we were unable to utilize the water toys but did enjoy a dip in the lake and the peaceful setting to relax. Would love to come back and use the lake another time. Erik was great with responding anytime I had a question prior to our stay. Great host!!

Excellent lake home with tons of fun things to do

My family of 13 thoroughly enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards, adults and teenagers! A little bit of a walk down the steps to the lake but a good workout. The view from the screened in porch was excellent. Very updated kitchen and bathrooms. Only a mile or two out of town. Will stay again when back up in the area.

Family Trip

The cabin was nicely updated, clean and had everything we needed for our week up there. It had plenty of space for our family and the bedrooms were plenty big. The kids loved swimming in the lake and using the paddle boards. It is in a very convenient location close to stores and restaurants as well.

Family Vacation

This house was perfect for our family vacation! Our group included two teenagers who enjoyed using the paddleboards and kayaks. Looking out from inside the house, felt like being in a tree house. The lakeside patio was a great place to relax. We also rented the pontoon for the week which provided endless hours of boat rides and fishing. The house was stocked with everything that you could possibly need.

10/10 would recommend!

This cabin is absolutely beautiful! We had 8 adults in our group and there was still plenty of room! The location is amazing and pretty easy to find! The lake wasn't crowded at all so it was easy to float and fish off the dock. The guys in our group loved the paddle boards as well. Erik made the check in/check out process a breeze. He was very responsive and easy to communicate with!

Amazing rental

This was the best VRBO that we have rented over the years. The house itself is a perfect layout for a varied crew. We had 4 adults, a teenager, and 2 kids under 7. The layout gave everyone their own space and at the same time no one was isolated. The whole reason for renting a house in the first place is to have the comforts of home. Too many rentals fall short in this category but not this place-- it had everything you need and more. Kitchen beautifully stocked, plenty of bedding, and lots of gear to enjoy the lake (kayaks, paddle boards, inner tubes). There is a pontoon available for rent (extra charge for that, very reasonable) but we weren't able to take advantage of it this time. The beds were very comfortable, the A/C worked beautifully, it was easy to find things, the place was CLEAN, the owner was very quick and efficient at communicating. We would rent again in a heartbeat!

Great time had by all.

The house was roomy and nice for us ten women. Beautiful view, quiet neighborhood. Well stocked! The only concern was with the driveway. It was icy. There was salt for us to use, but would have been better for it to have been put on before we got there, Eric was great to work with. I hope to come back with my family in the summer.
