About this property

Darling Retreat- chain of lakes, new large deck, indoor sauna

Escape to Darling Retreat, your perfect lakeside getaway on the beautiful Chain of Lakes in Alexandria, Minnesota. This 5-bedroom cabin offers the ideal blend of relaxation, adventure, and comfort for families and groups year-round.

Spend your days enjoying the sandy-bottom shoreline, swimming from the private dock, or exploring the lake with the provided kayaks and paddle board. The dock is equipped with mooring whips to keep it safely secured, and additional boat rentals are available nearby.

Take in stunning lake views from the brand-new deck, complete with comfortable seating and a cozy fire table—perfect for morning coffee or evening mocktails or cocktails. As the sun sets, gather around the lakeside fire pit where firewood, roasting sticks, and s'mores goodies are provided for memorable nights under the stars.

After a day on the water or exploring Alexandria's shops, restaurants, and attractions just minutes away, unwind in the indoor sauna and enjoy the peaceful setting that makes Darling Retreat so special.

Whether you're planning a family vacation, a friends' getaway, or a relaxing retreat, Darling Retreat offers the perfect place to create lasting memories on the lake.
