Beautiful Get Away for any season only ONE Hour from the Twin Cities!
Beautiful Lake House within an hour’s drive of the Twin Cities
This peaceful lake home is located only 1 hour out of the Twin Cities! Situated on west side of Little Elk Lake (near Zimmerman, MN) and sits on a 1 acre wooded property with a breathtaking, southeast facing, view of the lake front perfect for spectacular sunrises. A dock for you to fish from and secure your boat or perhaps jet skis.
Recently, the house was beautifully updated with a stunning kitchen to include a wine cooler. Outfitted with new furniture. It’s just simply stated, a perfect place to relax with family and friends, enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning on the patio or perhaps enjoy a glass of wine in the evening as the sun sets. Sleeps up to 16 guests. 1-King bed, 2-Queen beds, 1-Full futon sofa. 4- pull out queen sleeper sofas, and 1- pull out twin sleeper sofa. To top it off, It’s expansive 21’x30’ loft outfitted with a wet bar and under-counter refrigerator is a great place for kids and grandkids to get away and spend time as the adults relax on the lake front.
This year-around conveniently located lake get-away is an amazing way to spend time on a lake in the summer fishing and boating, enjoying spectacular fall colors, and in the winter ice fishing and snowmobiling. Extremely convenient access to the boat launch area in the summer and the Minnesota snowmobile trail system in the winter.

About the host
Hosted by Owner
We enjoy the simple pleasures of life and are happy to share our lake house with you. From an earlier time, when life was simpler and classic like our 1956 Thunderbird, we hope you enjoy the lake as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
We have been in search of a lake house property as we so thoroughly enjoy the lake life. Both of us grew up with a lake cabin, its those memories that have motivated us to find this place.
What makes this property unique
As a kid, I remember getting stuck inside the cabin when it rained the entire weekend. When I saw the large loft with a theater, I was immediately envious as I understood that if kids encountered the same rainy weekend, they could still enjoy the cabin and its fabulous game room.
