About this property

Lakefront Living on Buchanan Lake

Enjoy over 115 feet of level lake shore on Buchanan Lake. The 3 bedroom 2 bath home is located on over an acre and situated on a dead end road. The lakeside covered deck has amazing views of the lake morning, noon and night! It is the perfect space to gather and enjoy yourselves at the lake.

The city of Ottertail is a highly desired Minnesota vacation spot. The home is a short 3 minute drive away. Ottertail has grocery stores, fun shops, delicious restaurants, and a couple of golf courses!

Buchanan Lake is over 900 acres. Our home is in a quiet bay on a level lot, and sits just steps away from the waterfront. Our spacious lot is the perfect atmosphere for bonfires and yard games.

Help yourself to the Lily Pad Float, lake floats, paddle boat, coolers, campfire pie irons, s'mores sticks, fishing poles, and yard games.

In the bunk room you will find an extra twin size mattress under the bunks that can be pulled out and used as a sleeping spot. Both bathrooms have tubs and showers.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
