Private lake home with Pontoon on Lake Ida in Alexandria, MN

Lake Ida peninsula! With over 1000’ of lake shore, this property sits at lake level making it superb for swimming. Located at the end of the road for privacy, the property is secluded with mature oak trees for the perfect relaxing vacation. The garage is setup for enjoying the lake days with a patio and small bar/counter area, full size refrigerator, oven, table and chairs and tear away screen (this space is our favorite!). We’ve even had sleepovers in this space (air mattresses with sheets and blankets available). A bunk room pairs as a storm shelter built to withstand winds up to 200 mph! This is truly a unique property that offers many memories to be made!

We offer the use of a pontoon for $650/stay.
Lake Ida is a large clear lake (sandy bottom) with three public accesses. The lake has a couple sandbar spots that are fun to spend the day at. Or if fishing is your thing, Lake Ida is one of the top lakes in the area for walleye, large and smallmouth bass and northern pike. Some of our best catches have been right off our dock!

If you wish to take a break from the lake, Alexandria, recently voted Best Town in Minnesota, is just 10 minutes away. Things to do and see include: charming local shops, unique and delicious restaurants, Copper Trail Brewery, Carlos Creek Winery, Big Ole and the Central Lakes Trail.
