About this house rental

Situated in Alexandria, this charming house for $503 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. Reservations for next summer are coming in. An amazing home for family reunions, evenly spaced between Minneapolis and Fargo! 3 separate living rooms for 3 age groups! 2 miles from downtown Alexandria bars, restaurants, and shops. Beautiful mid-century modern decorated home on gorgeous Darling Lake. The home is one mile directly across the water from Arrowwood Resort and Waterpark, which has a restaurant, waterfront bar, spa, marina, and conference center. Only a couple of miles by water from the Lure and Zorbas. Bring your boat and use our boat lift and dock; swim on the hard sand beach; chill on the lakefront deck... 4th of July fireworks are right off the dock, you could watch them from the kitchen, one of the decks, or the dock! We're one of the very few VRBO lakefront homes on a Premier Chain of Lakes lake that is well within the pizza delivery range! Free WiFi (whole-home WiFi system, no dead zones!). 2 sleeper sofas (1 queen, 1 full). 1 king, 1 queen, 2 full, 2 twin beds. 2 huge Smart TVs, both with great surround systems. All beds are high-end, cool gel-memory foam! If yours wasn’t a five-star stay, let us know what we need to do to rectify the situation. The chain of lakes connects Alexandria to New Orleans, it is not a typical lake, it is six beautiful lakes connected together at the top of the watershed, draining into a gorgeous, crystal clear lazy river. Several marinas, restaurants, and bars are all accessible by boat from the dock! For families traveling with babies, check out the BabyQuip site for renting all of the big-baby necessities! Shipped ahead to meet you, cleaned and not hogging space in the minivan! https://www.babyquip.com?a=8bad3d3

This home is nothing short of perfect. Wonderful family spaces, wonderful space for the teens to "disappear". Bedrooms are spectacular, the kitchen is wonderful. We played many games of Farkel and Yatzee, did two 1000 piece puzzles, and spent many hours on the lake, the winery, and the minigolf course. A much needed respite for our family, and we couldn't ask for a better place to be. Thank you soo much.

The home met all of our needs, two fantastic living rooms and large bedrooms with storage. The kitchen was well stocked with extra items (spices, coffee filters, great cutlery, and also had a crockpot.) there was plenty of firewood. The lower deck is so nice for gathering and private with fantastic lights. Only downside was the decks only had six chairs but we had two bag chairs packed and there also isn’t central air (window unit in the living room.) Fantastic space and we will definitely be back!!! So close to Carlos Creek (we attended a cheese pairing) and we loved the stairs for morning workouts! Thank you, George!!

Had a lovely time with our children and grandchildren. We love the chain of lakes that we have been coming to for the past 36 years. Our family has grown so we need more space. George's house is ideal for us. It has a nice boat lift. The location is perfect also to town, or across the lake to Arrowwood. Thanks for a great week!

The lily pad a lot of fun for our grandkids. We were able to easily cook our meals there. To note if unable to do stairs could not access the dock. Beautiful view. Enjoyed the pair of loons we saw often.

George outfitted his home with all the cooking equipment you could want, games galore, a lily pad, new Traeger grill and a sound system equivalent to a movie theater. Restaurants, entertainment park and winery near by. What more could you ask for?!

We had a very nice stay. The house works so well with the layout of space, the items provided, the nearness to Alexandria’s downtown and perfect Fall colors. We enjoyed the fire pit and the fireplace, put together puzzles, went for walks and read books. Plenty of hot water for showers. Well stocked kitchen. Very good host, taking care to check on whether we needed anything.

My husband, our young adult boys, and a few of their friends joined us for a few days of fishing. The home was perfect for our group: size, bedrooms, dock area, backyard with fire pit - we cooked all meals at the home. Neighbors were friendly and helped us find some walleyes. My folks lived on Lake Darling for 20 years - was great to be back and spent some time with friends and family in such a great home. Thank you, George!

My family and I had such a wonderful time here! The weather cooperated for the most part, and even when the rain came we were content on staying in and playing games and watching movies. Everywhere you would like to visit in Alexandria was literally within a minutes drive. Our host George was a very nice guy and responded quickly when we had questions. The home was well stocked with necessities, which was so nice. The lake was perfect for playing safely by the dock for the kids! Fishing was fun as well. Bluegill and Bass were easy to catch and kept everyone entertained. I hope to visit again!!

Perfect family vacation spot

Perfect family vacation spot

Our family of 9 had a wonderful time. Lake shore was shallower than last year but we managed just fine. House was beautiful, comfortable, well organized and outfitted. We especially loved having three separate areas for relaxing. Teens in basement, young adults in tv area, and older folks in living room, and also lots of together time at the huge table. Mini golf and go karts at Casey's, shopping downtown and fishing.... So much fun! Had the pleasure of meeting the owner. George is super nice and so responsive to any questions or concerns. Thank you soooo much, George. We loved every minute of our time, even the rainy day 1000 piece puzzle day. :)

Worked well for our 8 adults and 3 kids. Lake is shallow so you would need to go out a long way to actually swim. Kids enjoyed the lily pad!

Beautiful home, perfect for our family

Beautiful home, perfect for our family

This home was perfect for our group of 9. The space was great, with separate areas for the teena, the young adults and the older folks. The lake was gorgeous and perfect for skiing, fishing (I caught my first northern And one of our party caught a walleye) and boating. The teens went to a nearby beach and enjoyed being "alone". Shopping was convenient and fun. Nice neighbors and great lawn. The only thing I would change is some tieoffs for the boats, to helpbuabold folks get out of the boats and kayaks we brought. I took a spill getting out of the kayak but the water was warm and clean and I didn't mind. Lol. Thank you George. It was a lovely time!
