About this property

Perfect sunset views on Lake Carlos

Only 2 hours from the Cities, this lake home is eclectic, spacious and has stunning views of the sunset on clear nights! Because our family has owned this property for over 20 years it is a quirky layout of lake-love, craftiness, history-lovin, live-your-best-life kind of home. What's not to love?!

We want to share this beauty with you and yours because it has meant so much to our family over the years and it has so much to offer: 3 decks to gather on; a beautiful and funky garden; private dock and swim area; easy parking; and tons of birds and other wildlife.

FALL! Come for the colors and for the Grape Stomp at the Carlos Creek Winery. Come for the cool nights without bugs. Come for it all!

WINTER! We are 1/2 mile from Sate Park snowmobile trails and more. Ice-fishing on this lake is best early in the season; XC skiing in the State Park or just down the steps onto the lake is amazing;

Deets are below, but we are happy to answer any and all questions if you want to contact us directly. Please first read this lovely list:

The kitchen: Refrigerator/freezer, oven, toaster, microwave, coffee maker, dishes (plates, bowls, glassware, coffee mugs), cooking pots, slow cooker, air-fryer, and baking dishes, island with elec outlets and plenty of room for food prep and/or entertaining.

The living room: Smart TV, giant couch, elec outlets throughout.

Sun Room: closing french doors for privacy, pullout couch

Dining Area: dining table with 4 chairs, 3 chairs at the kitchen island

Bathroom: sunlight ceiling, shower/bath combo, large vanity mirror

Bedrooms: queen bed (in both), bedside tables, outlets, sizable closets

Laundry: small washer and dryer, addt'l clothesline outside

Due to safety reasons, we are unable to allow access to the boat or the garage. The Marina next door can help you access anything you need for water play! Find them at https://www.lakecarlosmarinamn.com

Carlos get away
We really enjoyed the property and our stay. Everything was clean and very roomy. It was very convenient since we have a pontoon in the marina.

Cute, spacious cabin
It's a spacious, well-kept place for a two-bedroom, one-bath cabin. The sunset views are truly amazing! The area around the dock is sand bottom and mostly weed-free to great for swimming. And having Hang Loose next door is great because ice is always easily accessible.

Great property with beautiful view
My wife and I stayed for 6 nights to visit some family in the area and do some fishing. Great property and everything was as listed. Clean and very comfortable! The owner was great as we wanted to stay an extra day and she was very flexible in accommodating. We would definitely stay again!
