Cozy 3 Bedroom Cabin on Private Lake with canoe. Pet friendly!

Just 10 miles from Alexandria, this location is all you will need to be close to the city, or relax and enjoy the outdoors. Two levels, two living rooms, three bedrooms, and a full kitchen/bathroom are part of this cabin. Plenty of outdoor fun on a private lake, In unit laundry, tv, and wifi!
Note: this is a country lake home in the woods. Bugs, small woodland animals, and natural elements are all part of your lake experience.
The space
You can wake up to deer and turkeys walking by in the morning. Spend the day out on the canoe or paddle boat for a trip around the lake, or to find the special spot where the big fish are hiding. In the evening, the loons will lull you to sleep in the quiet of the night. Beautiful sunsets over the private South Crooked Lake Bay will draw you to the dock for a peaceful evening of fishing, campfires, and outdoor dining...across the bay is a breathtaking view of rolling hills of alfalfa and trees... Peace, quiet, and nature abound.

In the cooler months, the Andes Tower Ski Hills offers a fun mountain for all levels of skiers, snowboarders, and tubers. Snow is made as early as October, and the lifts run just as long! There are trails for cross-country skiing or biking. The private access to Crooked Lake also allows ice anglers to have seclusion as they set up their ice houses. The drive is plowed but we highly recommend driving a 4x4 or AWD vehicle.

The nearby city of Alexandria is a gem of Western Minnesota year-round, as it has tons to do for all family members! The Andria Theatre offers mainstage shows and special events. The Big Splash Indoor water park allows guests to swim at any time of the year. There is a local YMCA for members to get their steps in before relaxing the day away. Casey’s Amusement Park offers go-carts and bumper boats and Lakes Area Jump 4 Fun serves as another year-round place to visit. 22 Northmen Brewing Company and Carlos Creek Winery offer fun activities, including wine tastings, tours, lawn games, and live music! There are countless things to do and plenty of nature to escape the city life's hustle and bustle. This cozy cabin offers it all!

The stay was fun! There were a few plumbing issues that we ran into along the way. The water could have been a little more cleaned up of weeds to have a better swimming area.

Depends why you’re going and group size

I was looking for a nice private cabin on a lake that allows pets, for my immediate family to relax and reconnect so Mom & dad, 3 adult children and grandma, so 6 adults 2 dogs and a cat. This is not the ideal cabin for that, in my opinion a cabin sleeping 6 should have adequate space for 6 people to comfortably sit in the same room for meals or board games this cabin only seats 3 for indoor eating and upstairs futon is rock hard. Also 6 people staying 5 days have lots of stuff, clothes, food, games…there is zero storage/closet space. The lake is beautiful, we could catch fish off dock, also took advantage of canoe. Grandma only braved the trek to lake once as it’s a steep rutted path. Dogs enjoyed swimming in lake but not ideal swimming for people. Neighbors are very close, so not as peaceful as I’d hoped. Listed amenities, enough towels, soap etc were not provided or at least not restocked adequately for our group. A smaller group may fare better.

Place to sleep while at brother's lake cottage.

We used this primarily for sleeping and eating breakfast. We spent most of the day with family on another lake, so we never took advantage of this lake access. It slept 6 adults with no problem AND a pack an play. Comfortable, clean, great to have a washer and dryer in the lower level! Thank you for a great stay!

Disliked: Cleanliness
We appreciated the location and the potential of this property, but unfortunately our stay was impacted by a few issues. When we arrived, the home was not as clean as expected, especially considering the cleaning fee. During our stay, we experienced problems with the AC not working, the outdoor light being out (which made nighttime dog walks difficult), and the deck not being well maintained. We also encountered a rodent issue that led us to end our stay early.The host was responsive and open to feedback, which we appreciated. With some improvements, this could be a much more comfortable and enjoyable place to stay.

This was mine and my families first vacation in 8 years , while searching we looked for a place for a family including fur babies and came across this home on a private lake and looked into it and it sounded perfect peaceful just big enough for everybody to have some space of there own but not to much so it felt like we weren't together and our dogs loved it running around and even out in the canoe and our kayaks with us we took with from home . Listening to the cyoties was nice we camp a lot so it was nice to hear them howling out there too we didn't fish but seen a lot of big fish jumping out of the water it rained just a little bit so we were out on water most of our stay I loved it seen some birds haven't seen before and there wasn't much flys or sqeters like I would have thought for being by the lake , also really nice to have washer and dryer there so we could wash laundry since I decided to flip out of my kayak twice lol going threw the lake my favorite spot was the end of the lake that has all kinds of lilly pads floating on the surface of the water IV never seen that but on TV so that was really pretty to me and standing on the deck looking out over the trees was pretty felt like being out in the woods which I like a lot the next door people did get a bit loud at times but it was private other then that and all the house supplies that are available made it so easy to cook /live there threw our stay .Planning again next year for longer stay.

Family Fun Fishing

We had a great stay. We caught so many fish, mostly northern and bass. It was awesome to be able to bring our dog who had so much fun exploring.
