Property had everything we needed. Nice quiet location. Downstairs bathroom tub did not drain but we just used the nice shower located upstairs. Overall nice place.
We loved this cabin! Well stocked kitchen and bathrooms, walking distance to Chets bar/restaurant, shed with lake toys and paddle boards, easy communication with the property manager, dock that we could tie our boat up to, backyard perfect for lawn games, comfortable beds, and very clean! Would highly recommend this one for all ages!
Clean and comfortable house; all the kitchen gear needed for cooking (plus grill); patio with table/umbrella/8 chairs, nice lawn sloping down to the lake; fire pit with chairs; deck at edge of lawn with a couple flights of stairs down to deck at edge of lake and dock; lots of fun water toys in shed (paddle boards, life jackets, tubes, etc.); Lake Irene is a nice quiet lake. Great location near Alex but we never left the property because it had everything we needed!
This property had plenty of "toys" for the lake and great fishing off the dock. Only issue was keeping upstairs cool. We stayed during an unusal hot spell for Minnesota, so maybe this was a one time issue. The area has a variety of things to do. Loved that property was on an isolated road.
This is an adorable little cabin with a beautiful view! The space is a great layout, it had everything we needed, and a great outdoor space for fires and drinking coffee by the lake. Our only suggestion would be a "freshen up" cleaning prior to guests coming. I'm guessing the house was vacant for a bit because there was a good layer of dust on the tv stand and dead bugs on the window sills, ring in toilet, etc. Everything else was great. Would definitely stay here again!

Andrew, we're glad you enjoyed your stay. Now that the final touches to the remodel have been completed, the dust creating activities are thankfully complete.
Have done many VRBO’s and without a doubt this was the best equipped home ever - right down to Tupperware-like leftover containers! But many steep wooden stairs down to the water (we’re in our 70’s) and lake bottom has razor-sharp zebra mussels. But, there were water shoes available. Do wish the master bedroom had king bed. Lots of very nice linens available and kitchen super-equipped. Even the light switches were id’d. Excellent location & about 20 min. from Alexandria. Would definitely return!
Property advertises capable of sleeping 11. Only 9 was available. Inflatable matress was brought in, but we wouldn't even have considered this property knowing two members of our group wouldn't have a place to sleep. Very little counter space for food preparation. Lake toys, view of lake, fire pit very nice.
We had a "moms weekend" and were pleasantly surprised with this stay. When you walk it you feel right at home. It was spacious and fit our needs perfectly. The property manager was great to work with and very helpful. Thanks so much!
