We are excited to welcome you to this lakeside retreat! Check us out on IG (lakesidelookoutMN) to follow our progress as we get ready to welcome our first guests. Designed specifically for large groups, multi-generational families and retreats in mind. Starting with the large foyer... Step in with plenty of room to drop your stuff and make yourself at home! Beyond the foyer, you will enter into our open concept kitchen, dining and great room space with a cozy hearth room tucked just off the great room. The wall to wall windows is a show stopper and lends beautiful views of the lake and occasionally a large family of 16 deer. If you love to cook on vacation, you will love the fully stocked kitchen boasting a 48” gas range with double convection/bake ovens, 12 ft island, 2 dishwashers, stand alone Subzero fridge and freezers and a walk in pantry to store all your ingredients. On one side of the kitchen/great room area you will find the "bunk house" with 6 queen size beds (10 ft ceilings so great for many ages), private changing area and an open concept bathroom with a double concrete vanity and 2 private shower/stool rooms. On the opposing side of the kitchen/great room area are 3 additional bedrooms. One with a private full bath and the other 2 bedrooms sharing a Jack N Jill full bath. The 5th bedroom is a lofted suite complete with a private bathroom and a balcony overlooking the great room. The walk out lower level with radiant heat flooring and 9.5ft ceilings has two additional 1/2 bathrooms, two large separate recreational/gathering spaces with a staircase to each. One rec space is set up as a game room and the other a “man cave”, with a large theater room between the two spaces. The game room side can easily be cleared out to set up yoga mats, tables, chairs or whatever you may need. Laundry facilities are available for use in the lower level as well. Madison Lake is a quaint town just an hour south of the Twin Cities and near several wedding venues: *10 min from Chankaska Winery *20 min from Indian Island Winery *15 min from Ahavah Cottage *15 min from The Capitol Room Surrounded by many lakes, the area offers numerous 2 nearby waterfront restaurants, 2 universities, wineries, golfing and shopping in the quaint town of St Peter... all within 10 min. We are 15 minutes from Scoops Ice Cream shop, which is located on the Sakatah Singing Hills State Trial. Grab a cone or coffee before renting their bikes to explore 39 miles of paths. A quick 8 minute drive into Mankato will find you every store, mall, restaurant and movie theater you will need during your stay. Or stay put, enjoy the views and let Shipt or Door Dash do the running for you! Lake George is a quiet, fully recreational lake with public access. Lakeside Lookout is a brand new build so the outdoor spaces will be evolving as we work through permitting and installation process, therefore the current pricing reflects that lakeshore landscaping is not yet complete. This cabin is set on just over 2 acres, with plenty of mature trees and 250+ feet of lakeshore. There are 2 large decks off the great room, a fire pit area, 2 picnic tables, hillside stairs to the lakeshore area and a floating dock for fishing, tying up your boat, etc. There are youth kayaks and youth and adult stand up paddle boards available for your enjoyment. If you have questions or concerns about the status of the landscaping, please inquire prior to booking, and we will be happy to give you any updates we may have! *Please note we are constantly investing back into property and replacing/upgrading items as needed. Therefore, there may be some additions/changes to furnishings and décor pictured!
