Cozy lakeside cabin near Alexandria - arcade, boat lift, firepit, pet friendly!

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. Dock and boat lift available during summer months.

**We recently added an arcade & game room featuring a juke box, head-to-head Pacman arcade game, Mortal Kombat 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!

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!

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 in all 4 seasons and features great hiking trails as well as a sandy beach.

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!

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). 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.

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

Family weekend
We had family gather for a destination wedding, and had a wonderful stay at the home on lake Irene. The appliances made cooking for the 9 of us plus those that came from othe rentals much easier. Not exactly handicap accessible. But we managed very well. The view from the deck on the lake was beautiful. So totally peaceful. Definitely would stay there again.

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!

Great location on the lake.
A nice cabin in a great location. The sleeping accommodations were perfect for my family. I appreciate the owner allowing us to bring our dogs as long as we paid an additional pet fee. I was very disappointed in the level of cleanliness but then I have high expectations in this area especially when I'm paying for a place to stay.

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!

Family lake weekend
Cabin was perfect for our group of 8. Amenities made everything smooth and relaxing. We had a wonderful time playing games on the patio, chatting at the bonfire, and chilling by the water on the dock. Was in a great location with Chet’s down the road, and a short drive to Carlos Creek winery. Great, private green space for dogs as well. Would recommend!
