About this property

Little Lake Louise

  • Welcome to Little Lake Louise – Your Private Park Getaway

    Tucked away in the rolling hills of southern Iowa, just 45 minutes from Des Moines, Little Lake Louise is a private, cozy log cabin retreat with all the comforts of home. Whether you're looking to unplug or play, this hidden gem offers it all; a private pond for fishing and floating, scenic trails for wandering, a screened-in gazebo, a lookout tower with panoramic views, and two decks for soaking in the quiet.

    The cabin features a fully equipped kitchen, full bathroom, heating and A/C, and cozy sleeping arrangements for up to four guests. Unwind by the fireplace in winter or enjoy a summer barbecue on the deck. It's like having your own private park; complete with modern amenities.

    The cabin is located about 1/4 mile beyond the main house on a private section of our property. While we live onsite, your space is fully private. We’re close enough if you need us, but you’ll have all the peace and privacy you'd expect.

    Highlights:
    Private pond with docks
    Fishing, floating, swimming & trails
    Screened-in gazebo & raised “Fort” shelter for views
    Full kitchen, fireplace (seasonal), A/C & heat
    Sleeps 4 (1 bed + futon)
    Games, TV, books, DVD player
    Peace, privacy, and nature in all directions

    Come see why they say Little Lake Louise is Iowa’s best-kept secret.
