About this property
Fabulous Cabin On Lake Darling
Welcome to “The Gray Duck on Darling!”
Your family will love this updated knotty pine cabin on Alexandria’s esteemed Chain of Lakes. The home has an open floor plan, vaulted ceiling, and a wall of windows to the lake. Outside there’s a large deck, fire pit, and dock to tie your boat to. Walk a few steps on flat land to swimming or fishing.
The home is minutes from downtown Alexandria, Carlos Creek Winery, restaurants, groceries, parks, golf and more...yet tucked away on a quiet dead-end road.
There are two main-floor bedrooms (one with a King bed, one with a Queen), plus a large loft with two Double beds and Twin Bunkbeds. The bathroom is large with a shower and stacked washer/dryer.
The dining table seats 8, plus there’s room for 4 more at the kitchen island, and a table for 6 on the deck. There’s a large leather sofa (folds out to Double bed for more sleeping options) to watch movies on the Smart TV. Enjoy modern kitchen appliances, a large grill, and all the cookware you’ll need to entertain. Lake Darling is great for swimming, fishing, and boating.
Linens, towels, cookware, and lake toys provided. Just bring your swimsuits and enjoy!
