About this property

Welcome to the McCabe Cabin on Lake Henry. We call it a cabin, but with 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and over 5000 square feet it really is more of a lake home. Whether you are looking for a place large enough to have a family reunion or someplace intimate enough for a small gathering the McCabe Cabin is the perfect choice.

We started renting it out to friends and family in the summer of 2008 and had such a positive response that we decided to expand it to off season and more specialized rentals such as scrap booking. Check out the photos and the description in the following pages and contact us if you have any further questions. Thanks for your interest.

Lovely and welcoming

Access to the pontoon was a nice component for extended family. Home is within walking distance of downtown. Private bedrooms and spaces for togetherness or alone time as we wished. Quiet neighborhood. Well stocked kitchen and games closet.

Good time had by all

The property was perfect for what we wanted to do. It was so close to town, we walked as much as we could. A couple of things. The light above the dinner table was very dark. Looks like it could use some LED light bulbs. It seemed darker because we could not keep the front door open to use just the screen door as the screen door had many tears in it and the screen door had gaps at the top and the bottom so that we had to close it to keep the bugs out. If we could have had it open, it would have lightened up the room. The house is stocked very well with many household goods. However, the refrigerator probably needs a good clean out as some of the items that have been left behind by others are past their due dates. At one point someone had dropped a quarter down the couch in the living room, when we picked up the cushion to look for it, there were many crumbs under the cushion...and we only picked up one cushion. We had a great time, and are coming back again next year. I would give it an overall rating of 4, just for the fact that the cleaning needs to be a little better and the front screen door needs to be replaced. We still had a great time.

Girl's Trip

This was a girl's trip to the Alexandria, MN area. The house and grounds were great. Plenty of room for everyone. The house was very well furnished and had a well stocked kitchen. Would definitely recommend.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home in 2005 and have not been able to use it as much as we had hoped so we decided to rent it out during the weeks that we are not there. It's located on a quiet lake within walking distance of downtown Alexandria MN.
