Cabin on gorgeous Lake Ida, just minutes to the Carlos Creek Winery!
Come relax in a house on a hill, with a dock on a lake, and hide away...
(Thanks, Brett Eldridge, for the perfect lyrics to describe our hideaway lake house!)
Enjoy gorgeous sunsets overlooking pristine lake Ida, while listening to the loons sing. Lake Ida has crystal clear water with visibility exceeding 16 feet. The 4400 acre lake is an exceptional fishery, as well as an ideal recreational lake for boating and other water sports.
This fully furnished lake home is a perfect space for relaxation and rejuvenation for the whole family. The deck overlooking lake Ida provides stunning views of the sunset and wildlife on the lake. Take the stairs down to the beautiful large, flat, beach area. A shallow beach with a long dock is perfect for swimming, fishing, floating, sunbathing, kayaking, etc!
The comfortable home has three bedrooms, each with a queen sized bed. The downstairs living room has a large couch with a pullout bed and extra blankets and pillows.
There are two full bathrooms, one on each level, with a shower and tub, stocked with towels and beach towels.
The kitchen is exceptionally functional, and offers a well stocked kitchen.
Don’t forget to check out the garage!! A detached garage offers a space for FUN! Ping pong, foosball, bean bags, a mini fridge, and more.
There are two kayaks on the beach for your use.
** 4 miles from Carlos Creek Winery and 22 Northmen Brewing Company!
** 5 miles from Gathered Oaks - check out there wood-fire pizza nights!
** 10 minute drive to Zorbaz or Lure
** 10 minute drive to the Alexandria golf club

Girlfriends Getaway
Perfect place to unwind & relax by the fire. Very clean and tidy. Beds were comfy, 2 were soft, one firm, good for different preferences, plus the fu twin mattress was nice for me (a snorer) s9 I could sleep away from others and not wake them up, ha! Gorgeous view and setting!!! SO close to the winery and not far from Alec, and beautiful to just stay and not go anywhere, as well!

Lake Ida Gem
A beautiful home on Lake Ida, just as described. We stayed to attend a wedding at the Winery up the road, amazing location! This Home has all you need, owners were quick to respond on the one small question we had. The garage game room was perfect for entertaining grands and teens! We were able to rent a pontoon from a local provider and tie right up to the dock. everything is new and in pristine shape! We would love to stay here again! The road is a little noisy, but the view of the lake and front deck makes up for any bit of noise. Truly a gem of a place to stay!

Amazing Property on Lake Ida!
Gorgeous house, very well maintained. Close to Carlos Creek Winery. The back balcony off the living room has the most amazing view. The games in the garage were a huge hit with the teens. The kayaks were available to use, one son took one out and had fun. There was truly something for everyone. Excellent communication with the manager. I could not have asked for anything more!
