Beautiful Lake Home

Beautiful lake home with everything you need for a family to stay. We stayed during the winter months but this property would be amazing for the summer time. Upstairs is super private for a second family to stay. Highly recommend. The host was very helpful with all our questions.

Absolutely perfect place to stay

We had a fantastic stay at the cabin. I cannot wait to stay again. The host was easy to communicate with-every part of our process from booking, to checking in, and then checking out was effortless. I highly recommend this property! It is in a beautiful neighborhood, has easy access to the great town of Alexandria, and is extremely clean and well cared for.

Great place for a girls getaway

This was perfect for our birthday girls getaway. The beautiful kitchen with large island was great for eating, playing games and cocktails. The back porch and fire pit were also a favorite. Owner was very responsive to questions. Alexandria is a great place to visit!

Great spot for family vaca!

This was our first Vrbo experience, and we greatly enjoyed our stay! The property was very clean, updated and private. We spent most of our time outside, enjoying the peaceful lakeview and a bonfire. It was so nice to have a second bathroom and living room so that the family could spread out. Only improvement I could suggest would be clearing some of the reeds by the dock to provide easier lake/kayak access.

Perfect get together

Four siblings and their spouses stayed two nights at this place. It was super clean, tastefully decorated, ticked every box. We could sit around the kitchen island or outside around the fire pit. One fished off the dock and caught four fish. Two took the kayaks out for around the lake. Each couple took turns with a meal. Again, a grill for the guy making steaks. Top notch appliances for egg bakes. Everything was there; only thing needed was ice. We hadn’t even departed and were already talking about next year here… Thank you for a great spot!!

About the host

Hosted by David Lovrien

Host profile image
I was born and rasied in Alexandria. I have had the oppurunity to live in multiple cities around the United States and even spent 6 months living in Seoul, South Korea. The last decade I have been in Minneapolis. While I have found beauty in all the places I have beenmy experiences opened my eyse to how much of a special place Alexandria really is. In my mid-30s I finally moved back home in 2020 and have never looked back. I purchased this home within a few months of living in Alexandria and I spent the better part of 2 years fully gutting and remodeling it. I hope you love this place as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

Aside from the location and the views this property provides-- you will find everything in this house is updated. During the remodel I had you the guest in mind with everything I did. I have given my best effort to cover every detail to make your stay enjoyable and if I recieve feedback from a guest on any way to improve the experience I listen. While this listing is new on VRBO it has had 22 reviews on Airbnb at the time I am writing this-- all were 5 out of 5.

What makes this property unique

7 beds all with quality mattresses

Three season porch with a bench swing- sip coffee to a sunrise in the morning. Drink wine for the local winery as the sun sets!

1 canoe and 2 kayaks along with life jackets

A large fire pit with wood provided

Reverse osmosis drinking water set up for drinking water
