The same lakefront villa, with the upper level closed off. You get the main floor: a king bed with its own attached bath, the full kitchen, the fireplace, the screened porch or patio, and the same walk to the beach. No stairs anywhere in the stay.

It sleeps three. We open these on selected shoulder season and off season dates, which is how the rate lands at $299 while the four-bedroom and five-bedroom villas run $449 and $549 on comparable nights.

If you have stayed with us before, ask before you book. Certain shoulder season and winter dates carry a returning guest rate that we do not publish.

Send us your dates and we will tell you what is open.

The lake goes quiet after Labor Day and the hardwoods turn along the shoreline. Cool mornings, warm afternoons, and the whole chain of lakes to yourself.

Direct access to the groomed routes in Alexandria and Douglas County, with room in the villa for up to eight riders, gear, and a real kitchen for the end of the day.

A $55 per guest add-on that bundles a wine flight at Carlos Creek Winery, a Raw & Co superfood face mask, a drink at The Edge Coffee, and a Kindred People shopping discount, plus a complimentary bottle from Carlos Creek. Roughly $100 of value.

Opener weekend books early. Private boat launch, dock space, and a villa within walking distance of the water so the crew is on the lake before sunrise.

Book two or three villas side by side, or talk to us about the whole property. Reunions, birthdays, and company retreats all work better when everyone is on the same stretch of shoreline.
