October on Duck Lake
We had a great time at the cabin on Duck Lake. October was fabulous this year with warm sunny days and cool nights. Fall colors, families of trumpeter swans and wood ducks and an occasional bald eagle made our stay special.Cabin met all of our needs and then some.

Weekend getaway
Our group of friends enjoyed the location, quiet atmosphere, and comfortable home. The property is not “perfect,” because it’s clearly been well-used by its owners over the years. it is the sort of place where you can relax and not take yourself too seriously.

Sweet Gem
This is a diamond stay. Amazing lake views. FULLY STOCKED SUPPLIES. AMAZING BEDS. There are not enough words to describe how amazing this gem was for our multigenerational family vacation. The water toys, the property, the fishing, all of it was amazing.

Comfortable & Homey
My two adult daughters and I were looking for a quiet, comfortable place to spend time together. We felt very much at home, and the host family generously invited us to help ourselves to whatever was available. Greg responded immediately when there was a problem with the fridge. The mattresses were great! We enjoyed looking around the small towns nearby, especially Crosby.
A good carpet cleaning is recommended, but that's like home, too!

Family vacation
Our stay at Gregg's cabin was fabulous. We had seven family members and there was plenty of room for everybody. The cabin was just as advertised, no surprises.
We enjoyed our time kayaking, paddleboarding and just sitting in the water soaking in the sun. There is ample yard space to play yard games too.
The cabin is located on a quiet lake and quiet road so our time there was very peaceful.
There was plenty of water inflatables provided and generous amounts of coffee, spices and condiments we could use. I highly recommend Gregg's cabin for a nice getaway.

Very comfortable beds, access to much wildlife & scenic lake viewing. Heating kicked out on the colder nights and the A/C when needed was sufficient. Clean & organized. Priced right too! Great owners that responded to questions asap. Jacqueline H

Lovely stay!
We loved the quietness of Duke lake! The kids (and adults!) really enjoyed the lake toys- Lilly pad, 3 kayaks, paddle boat, paddle boards and floats! Plenty to keep us ALL entertained while enjoying g the lake! We did some fishing and caught a few perch, bullheads and a northern! The home was more than enough space for us to sleep comfortably and enjoy meals together! Definitely recommend this property. The only small con was that after a day on the lake, there was only enough hot water for one of us to take a warm shower. We did quick rinses the rest of our stay- and that was just fine for us.

Family getaway
We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was very comfortably set up for our group of 7. We enjoyed Duck Lake, and liked the secret path to Cross Lake even more. At Cross Lake the swimming and fishing were just terrific.
The owners both rent and use this property, so their personal belongings are here and there but not in an discomforting way. There was plenty of shade on sunny days. And ways to find sun if you wanted it. The fire pit area was wonderful. Kitchen had everything we needed.

Qui vous reçoit ?
Vous êtes reçu par Gregg J Hermerding
Hello! We're Connie and Gregg. We live in Minnesota with our four children and six grandchildren. Gregg is a former teacher of 37 years and now works part time at our local library. (Gregg couldn't just retire after leaving teaching, or he would have gone crazy!) Connie works for a local non-profit after she stayed home to raise our four children. Gregg likes to bake bread, long distance biking, running, working out at the health club, and making jellies and jams. Connie is crafty and makes jewelry to sell to raise money for her non-profit. She is also an avid reader of murder mysteries. We are die-hard Minnesotans and dearly love all four seasons. We are active in our local community and in our church. We love entertaining, especially introducing friends to fondue!
Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?
Gregg's parents owned this property. After they died a few years ago he decided to keep this lovely lake home in the family. After inviting many friends to spend time "up at the lake," (and seeing how much they enjoyed this home and their time there) Gregg and Connie decided they should share this lake home with others.
Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?
Gregg and Connie maintain this property as a lake home. They use it regularly throughout the year. Therefore, our renters should feel free to use the groceries and other items found in the cupboards and refrigerators. (If you run out of a certain item please leave a note so we can restock that item.) Renters also have full access to linens and paper products. Free wood is available for the fire pit down by the lakefront. Kayaks, paddleboards, lawn chairs, and "floaties" are available too. This is a family home so help yourselves!

Fishing:
Duck Lake has a lot of northern pike. Casting with a Mepps, spinners, or spoon lures works well. You also can access the south bay of Crosslake via our “secret path” through the woods. As you leave the driveway, walk straight across West Shore Drive. There is a path that will take you to Crosslake. It’s only about 100 yards long. You might be able to catch bass, sunnies, and perch. You can swim over there as well.
There is also public access to Crosslake. Take a left at the end of the driveway. The public access is about 1/8 mile down on the right. Crosslake is part of a chain of lakes that gives you access to many fishing possibilities.
