The location and scenery at Duck Lake are beautiful, but our 9 night stay was significantly impacted by a rodent problem. We personally saw mice on multiple occasions and found numerous traps throughout the property. Most troubling, we found a live mouse caught in a sticky trap under the kitchen sink and had to take care of it.There were also issues with no hot water in the guest bathroom and an unpleasant smell from the water. The shower stall in the master bathroom, we were sharing with another couple was small, dark and wasn’t very clean.Our greatest disappointment was how the rodent issue was handled after we reported it. Owner acknowledged they were aware of the issue from the previous guest but neglected to let us know. Rather than accepting the seriousness of the problem, responsibility was placed on us for not reporting it sooner. We tried to work with the owner afterward regarding the disruption, but felt there seemed to be little interest.We take no joy in writing this as our trip was still amazing. We have rented dozens of vacation properties throughout the US over the years and have never experienced anything comparable. The location is beautiful, but future guests should be aware of the rodent problem and our experience before booking.
