About This Home

Tucked beneath a canopy of mature hardwoods along the quiet shores of Lobster Lake in Alexandria, this one-of-a-kind property features three vintage cabins sold together as a single compound; each one full of genuine character and charm that simply cannot be replicated in new construction. Two of the cabins offer breathtaking views of the lake, making every morning feel like a retreat and every evening something to remember. One cabin features a classic screened porch, perfect for those long summer nights when the loons are calling and the air is warm. Another has a large, welcoming porch that’s made for gatherings, coffee at sunrise, card games in the afternoon, and cold drinks as the sun dips behind the treeline. A private dock reaches out over calm, clear water, and a classic bonfire pit anchors the heart of the property, ready for s’mores, storytelling, and stargazing under open Minnesota skies. Lobster Lake is appropriately named as it provides many bays, points and different areas to explore. Phenomenal fishing can be had right from the dock where you may catch walleyes, bass, crappies, sunnies, northern or even muskies. Yes, you read that right. Lobster is a well-known musky producing lake! Whether you're dreaming of a multi-generational family retreat, a shared escape among friends or a legacy property to hold for decades to come (as the current owners have), this Lobster Lake compound delivers the soul, the setting and the memories all in one extraordinary offering!
