We stayed here with grandma and grandpa and our family of 4. Loved that the one bedroom on the main level was a little separated from the upper rooms so grandma and grandpa could have their own private space away from our noisy kids!Everything we needed was provided at the house, and appreciated being able to use the water toys as well as having access to a whole bin of beach toys! Fishing was great- caught pike every day. Short drive in to town and great location. Would absolutely recommend to others!

We had an amazing time!! We loved having the private beach and our kids thought it was great!! We took full advantage of the paddle boat, canoe, and kayaks! The cabin itself was spacious and lovely. The kitchen was well-stocked, we loved having a huge dining room table, and the living room couch was sooooooooo comfortable. We loved drinking our coffee and looking out on the lake every morning. Overall, we had a 10/10 experience and would love to come back!!

A great getaway for the whole family!

What a lovely home and property! Perfect spot for young kids to play at the sandy beach and in the shallow water. Great layout with big family gathering areas. Very quiet and private lake close downtown Crosslake. Highly recommend!

Cross Lake Retreat

This was a great location for our group of adults and children. We loved having access to the kayaks, the great fire pit, the sandy beach area, and toys for the kids. The location is on a private lake and it was very quiet, which we loved. We went into Crosslake for ice cream and there are nearby restaurants, if desired. We had a great stay!

Quiet lake stay

It’s so unusual to have a quiet stay on a lake. We loved that. The house was perfect for our group. It was well stacked with necessities and kitchen supplies. The yard was well kept. The kids played on the beach every day. The only downside was that we could not put our jet skis in due to the number of weeds. There was a small swimming area that was weed free but the lake at that end is weedy. We did use the landing across the street to put in the jet skis. It is very close and easily accessible. We used the kayaks, canoe and numerous beach toys.

Quiet Time on Duck Lake

If you enjoy being on a nice quiet lake away from the crowded bussle of Crosslake, this is a great spot. Secluded and peaceful. The kayak's and paddleboat were great. The home is comfortable for a family and nice open space for congregating.

Nice quiet cabin tucked between 2 other homes. Great sandy shoreline for kids to play. House came with kids toys, towels, games, and much more. Our family enjoyed fishing off the dock, using the paddle boats and kayaks, and fire pit. We would definitely book again.

Duck Lake was great!

We enjoyed our weeklong stay at Duck Lake. We were a family of four with grandparents and we had plenty of room and things to do. The house was spacious and clean and very accommodating. We had an issue with the WiFi but the owners were super responsive. Highly recommend this place that’s near Crosslake but not in the crazy mix of giant lake houses. Duck lake was smaller and peaceful, even for 4th of July weekend.

About the host

Hosted by Amanda & AJ Reyer

Host profile image
We wanted to have a place we could use, but also to share with others. I love hosting and take pride in making sure our guests have everything they need during their stay.

Why they chose this property

The land is spacious, private, including a private lake, and across the road is Cross Lake and the large White Chain of Lakes - so many options! It has acreage and yet is just a few minutes from fun activities, local establishments, fishing, golfing, shopping and a half hour from Brainerd. It is situated in the perfect spot for anyone and everyone!

What makes this property unique

The large beach is something that we searched a long time for. Not only do we have a large beach, it is private and in our own bay - which is a big differentiator. We have rented places for years with our family and find it hard to get a great place with a great beach, which is why it was so important that we had that so that families and friends had a nice area to hang out at. Plus, it is a fantastic place to play in the sand!
