Try your luck fishing from the dock or shore or take your boat over to the larger Otter Tail Lake for the day. At almost 14,000 acres, 21 sq mi and a maximum depth of 120ft, Otter Tail is the 10th largest lake in Minnesota and known for it's Walleye and Pike fishing. The majority of the lake is 15 ft or less in depth which makes it perfect for boating and water sports.
Wrap up the day gathered around the bonfire overlooking the lake, munching on 's'mores and creating lasting memories.
Book the barn for a winter getaway! Bring your family to gather over Thanksgiving or Christmas. The kitchen is well equipped to allow you to prepare a holiday feast and gather around the huge table.

Awesome place to stay!
Copper Penny Barn is just pristine, from the decore, the cleanliness, a well stocked kitchen to a super host who let us have an early check-in & told us to take our time checking out. We are hoping to come back next year!
This place was perfect for our family's weekend stay. Everything we needed we easily found inside the house and outside. The yard was big enough for playing games and the kids had fun in the water. So-much-fun!!
By far the most clean and well-appointed vacation rental we’ve stayed in. I would give it a 10 out of 5 stars for cleanliness. So much attention to detail- house is gorgeous. My favorite part was the lake lot however. It’s a beautiful, peaceful lot on a quiet lake. She had kayaks, paddle boards, floaties, TONS of books and games. Restaurants within walking distance. Perfect!!
Everything worked out really well- easy communication, pretty setting, gorgeous home, no detail overlooked in the lovely decor or convenience of kitchen and other rooms. Felt right at home immediately. Can walk to restaurants as well as have an easy drive into Battle Lake. Abundance of comfortable conversation areas with friends and you can feel the “soul” of the old barn. Lake was beautiful- some of our crew enjoyed kayaking. S’mores were fun each night. Will miss sitting on the Adirondack chairs & closing my eyes to feel the breeze off the water. Very relaxing.
We had the absolute best girls weekend at Copper Penny Barn! The space was cozy, beautifully decorated (we couldn’t stop talking about it all weekend!), and had everything we needed to relax, reconnect, and make some unforgettable memories. We were within walking distance to great food and entertainment which was an added bonus! The barn was stocked with every appliance and kitchen gadget we could possibly need—which made group meals and snacks super easy and fun. On top of that, there were plenty of games provided that kept us entertained all weekend long. From laughs around the table to late-night game battles, we were never bored! Our host was phenomenal—super communicative, friendly, and quick to respond to any questions. You can really tell she cares about making sure guests have the best experience possible.If you're looking for a charming, well-equipped, and welcoming place to gather with friends, Copper Penny Barn is it!

About the host
Hosted by Robin Andrews
Originally from Canada, I now live in this beautiful area of Minnesota where beautiful lakes and recreation are abundant.
I enjoy interior decorating, restoring old things and giving them a new purpose and outdoor recreation and activities.
I love being a vacation home host and my husband and I do all of the cleaning, yard and upkeep ourselves so we can provide our guests with an amazing experience.
Why they chose this property
The peace and tranquility of being on a private lake is such a rare treasure. And yet, activity and entertainment on otter Tail Lake and restaurant and bars are just steps away. It’s truly the best of both worlds at this location.
What makes this property unique
The barn is on a private lake but the hubbub of Ottertail Lake is all right here as well. Truly the perfect location.
