About this property

Vacation on one of Alexandria's Beautiful Chain of Lakes - License #1816

Our 4-bedroom A-frame offers an exceptional view of Lake Darling. You will feel like you are on the water as you gaze out the lakeside windows. This home is as close to the water as you can get. There are beds to sleep up to 8 plus a queen sleeper sofa and two single sleeper sofas for a sleeping capacity of 12. Three tiers of decks provide a wonderful, relaxing hangout. The property includes 900 feet of lakeshore that goes all the way to the channel connecting Lake Darling to Lake Cowdry. The property also includes a double garage and a fish cleaning room attached to the garage.

Lake Darling is the third largest of the eleven lakes that make up Alexandria's Chain of Lakes. On the Chain, you can spend the whole day on the water.

Lake Carlos State Park is just minutes away. This beautiful park offers fishing, volleyball, swimming, and miles of hiking trails.

Bring your bicycle because access to the Central Lakes Trail is less than one mile away. This trail stretches 55 miles from Fergus Falls to Osakis and then connects with the Lake Wobegon Trail. These trails are built on an old railroad bed, so the grade is easy for walking, pedaling a bicycle, or rollerblading.

Our base fee covers 6 people. There is an additional charge for more than 6. The maximum occupancy is 12.

About the host

Hosted by Connie Hammje

Host profile image
Alexandria is our hometown, but it is a fabulous vacation destination. We live on a farm close to town. We purchased this A-frame on Lake Darling for a dual purpose: a close get-away for us and a vacation rental.

Why they chose this property

Location was important to us. Being on the Chain of Lakes allows access to 11 different lakes. It is also close to town giving convenience for shopping and entertainment.

What makes this property unique

When you are in our A-frame, you feel like you are on a house boat. As you look out the windows on the lake side, it is like you are ON the water, not next to the water.
