Year 5 at Pearl lake

We enjoy coming back year after year. The property accommodates our family very well. Our group consists of 5 siblings and our children. We like the beach area and spend most of our time there. Darcy is very responsive to questions. Location is great, there are many things to do in Detroit Lakes, shopping, restaurants, breweries, and this year a troll hunt.

Family Fun Fest

We have enjoyed this getaway for 6 years for our family reunion. The owners respond quickly. The place is clean and well kept. Improvements each year are appreciated. No matter the weather we have room to have fun. The location and wonderful outdoor fire pit area and lake allow for many hours of outside fun for all ages. We all look forward to this adventure every year.

Awesome place to stay....we had so much fun...great place to spend time with family

Walking into the cabin, you felt like you were at home. Modern , but rustic cabin feeling, awesome view of the lake. Groomed snowmobile trail down the road, easy access to the lake and plenty of parking. Very roomy with a great floor plan...you literally just need your clothes, food and your favorite beverage. Would highly recommended to anyone and would definitely book again.

Annual summer vacation at Pearl Lake

We just experienced our 5th year of staying at this wonderful home on Pearl Lake! It is exactly as described and even better with the additions that the family has added to their home, beach and property. Lots of room both inside and outside with all the traditions of a summer vacation on site, and golf close by! Excellent communication with Darcy! We will be rebooking!

About the host

Hosted by Darcy Nelson

Host profile image
We are three siblings, who along with our spouses, have built this home. We have had many wonderful memories with our kids and with each other. As our kids have become older we find that we aren't able to use this home as much as we would like. We would love to have other families create some great memories here.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because we have family in the area and found it a good central location for all of us. We have loved the lake and the home as well. We love the seclusion and yet being within a few miles of so many things.

What makes this property unique

The home is set up so that you can all be together and yet have private space to yourself.
