Buttercup Hideaway - Your perfect lake escape! | House in Kensington
4 Bedroom House in Kensington
Welcome to Buttercup Hideaway, your spacious lakeside retreat designed for unforgettable get-togethers. Set on a private, wooded 2-acre lot on beautiful Freeborn Lake, this four-bedroom, two-bath cabin offers the perfect backdrop for connection, relaxation, and outdoor fun.
Inside, the open-concept main level makes gathering effortless. Whether you're cooking together in the kitchen, sharing a meal around the dining table, or lounging in the living room with panoramic lake views, everyone can stay connected in one welcoming space. Step onto the deck for morning coffee, group happy hours, or watching kids play in the yard below.
The walk-out lower level is built for together time—featuring a large family/game room and a bar area that opens right out to the patio and fire-pit. It’s ideal for multi-generational families, larger groups, or those who want separate hangout zones for adults and kids/teens.
Outside, the lake is the star: paddle out in the canoe or kayak, swim from the hard-sand bottom shoreline, fish off the dock, or roast s’mores by the campfire. With plenty of parking, Buttercup Hideaway easily accommodates bigger groups and all their gear.
Located just 15 minutes from Alexandria, shopping, dining, and entertainment are close and convenient without sacrificing the peace and quiet of country life.
Summer Activities: swimming, canoeing, kayaking, hiking in nearby parks, antiquing in downtown Alexandria, Casey's Amusement Park, Big Splash water park, and, of course, the Big Ole Statue is a must see!
Check out Alexandria Jet Ski Rental for jet ski and pontoon rentals. You can coordinate with them to have the pontoon delivered directly to our dock so it's ready when you arrive!
Winter Activities: snowmobile right from the cabin to trails that are just a quarter mile away, ski or snowboard at Andes Tower hill, check out the Runestone museum and explore the mystery of the Runestone, and visit Carlos Creek Winery or one of the amazing local breweries. Or just cozy up inside with one of the many games or puzzles we provide for you.
We look forward to hosting you for your up north retreat!
