About this property

Lakeside 3-bdrm chalet cabin near Alexandria - minutes from Carlos Creek Winery!

Amazing chalet-style 3 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom, 2,000 sq ft home with 2 living areas and spacious upper and lower decks for gathering. Situated on beautiful Lake Irene with over 100' of hard, sandy shoreline. Great for swimming & amazing fishing off the dock! Pontoon rental available during summer months.

Douglas County Permit: 1857

Irene's Oasis is a ten minute drive from Alexandria, MN and the chain of lakes (Carlos, Miltona, L'Homme Dieu, Darling, Geneva). It is very easy to get in and out of town, and is within walking distance to the local convenience store. It is also only about 10 minutes from Carlos Creek winery, a great place to have some food and enjoy a wine tasting! Other fun wineries are L’Etoile Du Nord as well as 68 and Vine, both minutes away! Carlos State Park is great to visit all 4 seasons and features great hiking trails as well as a sandy beach.

Home features open floor plan with vaulted tongue & groove pine ceilings, a gas fireplace, 6 panel pine doors, log railings, a loft area with bedroom, a master bedroom, two full bathrooms, a family room with sliding glass door to 10'x24' deck, a finished lower level family room with a beautiful pine bar, electric fireplace and finished bedroom. Additional 2nd floor deck.

Furnished with: washer and dryer, bedroom furniture, couches, and futons. Home also features two car extra large garage (28'x26'). Huge yard and great fire pit with wood provided! It is a beautiful smoke-free / pet-friendly home that we think you will love!

We offer a full kitchen for your hosting needs and are happy to answer any questions about what we have stocked. Of course there are options for the coffee lovers (like the owner Leah!) including a coffee pot and single serve Keurig.

Some of the absolute best fishing on this stocked lake is right off our dock. You will often see boats pulling up to try and get in on the action. Some of the best memories are sitting on the dock bench and watching the kiddos reel them in - hope you have the same experience if you visit in the summer!

During the winter, the cabin is a great getaway! We are near great snowmobiling trails. If you like ice fishing, this is an ideal location! Warm up after in front of 1 of the 2 fireplaces or pour a beverage at the bar :)

**We recently added an arcade & game room featuring a juke box, head-to-head Pacman arcade game, Hook and Ring Toss, plus there is a full bar for the adults in your party! Great gathering space for the whole family!** Outdoor games include cornhole boards and Kan Jam. Kayaks and a stand up paddle board available for an additional fee & waiver!

We hope you have a blast, get a chance to enjoy the lake and views from the deck, and can't wait to return! We do ask that you do a cursory cleaning prior to leaving. (The cleaning fee covers a cleaning crew for 4 hours, time required beyond that will be deducted from the damage deposit $75 per hour required. Additional $75 will be deducted if grill is used and not cleaned). Also, we have a strict no-smoking policy. If this policy is violated, we will keep the entire damage deposit to pay for the cleaning required to rid the house of the odor.

Pets are negotiable and a $125 pet fee is required. Please let us know when inquiring that you will be bringing a pet. We ask that you pick up any little "treats" left in the yard and address any excess fur in the house before departing.

The minimum primary renter's age must be 25+. We reserve the right to ask for proof of age should we feel it necessary. This cabin is *NOT* intended to house big/wild/loud parties, we love our neighbors at the lake and want to respect them always. This is a great option for family gatherings & getaways, but not crazy bachelor or bachelorette parties.

Thanks for looking, and if you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask! -Leah

Family Lake Time

Our family of 6 adults and 4 kids really enjoyed staying in this home. It was as pictured, clean, modern, and well supplied. The owner is very responsive to all questions. Lake Irene was great for swimming, fishing and boating. We appreciated the pet-friendly policy. We highly recommend this place to other groups!

Family Weekend Fun

Our family weekend was great.We were able ti bring our two dogs, the 3 kids had a great time playing in the basement, out in the yard and out on the lake. The weather was rainy but we were able to keep ourselves occupied with the games in the house. Leah was great at getting back to us when we had any questions. What a wonderful cabin to stay at!

Bachelorette Cabin weekend

Cabin was cozy and inviting. Lake was beautiful and there was plenty to see and do near by. Looking for something chill I would highly recommend this place! Leah was also quick to respond and help make accommodations for the party such as an early check in to decorate before the bride arrived. My only complaint is that we couldn’t say longer!

Perfect Fall Getaway

Came to for a few nights during fall break, grateful to find a place open this late into the fall, the views out of the windows/doors of the fall colors on the lake were beautiful! Leah and Keith make the whole process super easy and are super responsive to questions/concerns! Cabin is stocked with most everything we needed. Bonus being able to have our pets there with us!

November Getaway

We all have such busy lives, we couldn't wait to spend a weekend away and your cabin was just the right place to do that ! The weather was cold and snowy ....perfect for staying in and enjoying the cozy fireplace . The children enjoyed the variety of games and toys, while we enjoyed some card games and took turns preparing delicious meals . Mornings were my favorite to see a variety of birds and small furry animals that live near by. The view of Lake Irene was stunning.....was completely open when we arrived Friday evening and had a snow covered ice glaze by Saturday morning . We definetly would like to stay at your cabin again in the future 😀

NYE dream getaway

Had the most amazing time at the Single Barrel Ridge cabin over NYE. Communication was prompt leading up to the trip and the cabin itself was a sweet dream. Everything was so clean and tidy, we were very pleased. Huge bonus was finding all the extra kids tools/toys as my friends daughter joined us so she was very happy as well. Would love to come stay here again either in the winter or summer.

Tremendous cabin experience

Me and some buddies had a weekend up north at single barrel ridge. The cabin is extremely spacious, clean and up to date. The lot is huge and overlooks beautiful lake Irene. I Would recommend this cabin to anyone i know. Comfortably slept 8 people. Lastly Keith the owner is great. He is extremely responsive to all communication and answered any questions I had. Single barrel ridge is a great place to get away!!!

Family getaway

The place was nice and location was close to convenience store/gas station. We like sitting on the porch. Just a couple things to note, if you stay in the downstairs bedroom you can hear the all the noise (people walking) from the main floor. The advertised boat lift was not in the water for use. All-in-all it was a good weekend.

About the host

Hosted by Leah Meyer

Host profile image
I am originally from Minnesota and purchased this cabin in 2014. I am an active duty member of the US Air Force. The cabin has been a great place for our family to come back to and continue making happy memories while we've moved around the country. Love that others have the opportunity to make special memories there also!

Why they chose this property

This lake is very quiet and offers great walleye, northern, bass, crappie, and sunfish fishing. We love that Lake Irene is peaceful and has very little boat traffic! The house itself is only a minute off Highway 29. There is a convenience store within walking distance from the house, and it is only 15 minutes from the town of Alexandria, which has great restaurants, bars, shopping, Carlos Creek Winery, golfing, and lots of other great places to check out!

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the cabin feel of the house, and we think you will too. There are great views from both decks, and great fishing even off the dock. It is an amazing home and we think you will really enjoy it.
