Cozy cabin by the lake

Looks exactly like the pictures do. We unfortunately had some unexpected issues come up unrelated to the cabin so only had one full day there but we enjoyed sitting in the screened in porch having lunch while visiting with family and enjoying the beautiful view of the lake. We have stayed in this area of the lake before and it is very quiet and peaceful.

Absolutely Perfect!!!

This was a get away for my family but I also have family who live around Spirit Lake so I was able to see them as well. The cabin was perfect for our needs and loved, loved, loved the screen in porch...that is where we spent most of our time. Lexi was great touching base with us to see if we needed anything at all. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect for us!

The house was perfect for our 3 generation girls trip. Close enough to town to shop and explore, far enough away to be peaceful. Lexie thought of everything to make our stay comfortable.

Great time on Big Spirit Lake

We have an amazing stay at Lexi’s property. It was just as described. She was responsive with communication and helpful with providing tips for the lake and area. The fire pit was great. The hot tub was clean and functional. We enjoyed the screened in porch to keep away from the bugs. We brought our boat with us - and the ramp nearby was easy to use. The lake is big so winds can be a bit of an issue. But we were very surprised by how open it was on a Saturday in July, without a lot of boats on the water. We will definitely be back.

This is It

We’ve been looking for a place like this for years. We finally found it. Sipping coffee in the screened porch and watching sunrise over the lake. Biking on nearby trails and then sitting in the hot tub. Having our golden retriever Bailey with us on vacation! Beautiful home with everything we need to be comfortable and “at home.” Now you’ve found it too.

Wonderful stay

The home was very nice and relaxing. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking your own meals, and even had some containers for leftovers. Our favorite part was sitting out in the large screened in porch, playing card games listening to the lake. Lexi was extremely accommodating, ensuring we had everything we would need. Would love to visit again!
