About the host
Hosted by Randy
My family has owned cabins on this side of OtterTail Lake since 1909 and has a deep love and appreciation for this wonderful lake. This family cabin is our retreat from city life and we look forward to sharing it with you. We have some families who have rented from us for years.
Why they chose this property
This cozy cabin provides a great retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Sleep late and relax or get up early and fish one of MN premier Walleye lakes. We have tried to make this cabin a retreat, a home away from home. The beds are comfortable and inviting. The beach is sandy and you can walk out from shore for 300 yards and not go over your head.
What makes this property unique
This cabin features panoramic lake views with the wall of windows across the front of the cabin and this adds to the excellent ventilation this cabin has. We have the longest stretch of beach in this area of the lake at 125 feet of sandy beach which is excellent for tanning, building sand castles, swimming or being lazy. OtterTail Lake is approximately 5 miles wide and 20 miles long, and at 13,278 acres is easily the largest lake in the area. It features large areas of flat bottoms, steep drop offs, deep holes of 75, 90 and 120 feet and numerous other great places to fish. There is access to Walker Lake through Dead River, a short 100 yards away and more excellent fishing and boating there. This prairie area of Minnesota also is a flyway for many species of ducks, geese, and recently, beautiful long necked white swans and bald eagles have returned to the area. The fall provides beautiful color changes and our family has enjoyed many countryside drives to see the leaves. Many golden eagles are seen in and around the area as well.
