Relaxing Oasis
We absolutely loved staying at Basswood! It was the perfect size, cozy, and had everything you need and more. We loved being right on the water, relaxing by the fire, and playing games in the cabin. Communicating with Leo was easy and he was so patient when I asked numerous questions. It was truly a treat to stay at Basswood, we hope to be back!

Basswood Lodge review
We tremendously enjoyed our stay at Basswood lodge, we found the cabin to be exactly like what was stated in the listing amenities. The view of the lake and the shoreline access from the dock was very pleasant, we enjoyed the back deck listening to the serenading of the loons to our morning coffee.

What a joy! We needed calm & beauty and we found it at Basswood Lodge! The cabin is lovely & comforting. Leo & the Basswood Lodge team’s professionalism in maintaining the cabin helped us feel comfortable staying during this pandemic. Frankly, we didn’t want to leave. Absolutely loved our experience!!

Stunning setting and views of Cotton Lake perfect! Welcoming cabin built with love.
Great cabin perched high at tree top level with spectacular views of the lake. Loft is special place to read or nap. Spent many hours playing cards on screened porch. Hike to lake worth the steps as water clear and welcoming. Best location for sunsets on the dock. Look forward to claw foot tub being in working order next year. No WiFi or TV was a welcome change to play, hike, canoe, fish or swim. We will be back 😀

Little hideaway for our getaway
My little family of 4 stayed there while we were in town for a family gathering. We love staying in places out of town and out of hotels. This little cabin was perfect. It was a little warm the first night without AC but we utilized the fans and luckily the rest of the time it was much cooler. We didn't get to use the lake area much but it was beautiful and quiet. I would say you just need a couple more standing oscillating fans for the couple of days that it stays above 70 at night and your golden! The manager Joe was close by in case we needed anything. I loved having hot tea on the beautiful balcony. Thank you for having this cabin available in an area where there are so few it made our week!

Loved it!
We really enjoyed our time at Basswood Lodge. The cabin is so beautifully crafted with unique woods and interesting furnishings. We loved sitting in the screened porch or on the deck, enjoying the view of the lake and listening to the birds…..it was a very private setting. When it was chilly, we turned on the fireplace. We took chairs to the dock several times, soaking in the beauty of Cotton Lake. Oh…..and the sunsets were spectacular! The only drawback was the cabin water smelling like sulfur. The owner (Leo, who was very nice to work with) told us about that and is looking for a solution. We brought our own drinking water. Even with that, the relaxation and beauty we experienced will bring us back there again next year!

We'll be back!
We really had a wonderful time at Basswood Lodge. Our children and grandchild were able to join us for a couple days and it was a great family getaway.
Starting with the location, it's very convenient and easy to find. We were welcomed by John, who quickly showed us the property and answered any questions we had. Within an hour we were unpacked and it felt like "our place" right away. The pictures on the website are nice, but it actually looks better in person. Solidly built, a beautiful lake home. The views are fantastic, especially from the deck and the loft.
As the website says, it's a bit of a walk up and down the hill to the lake - a good cardio boost for this 55 year old grandpa. I walk daily, and it didn't bother me at all. We rented a boat that sat nicely next to the sturdy dock all week. We enjoyed fishing from the dock and swimming right there every day.
The cabin is well furnished with everything you'd need. All the appliances and grill worked great.
It's very clean. It is Minnesota lakes country - so there are bugs to deal with. All part of the experience.
We liked not having a TV in the property. We watched a couple Netflix shows on our computer before turning in for the night.
We were concerned about no air conditioning, but we had a pleasant week with high temperatures in the 80's and lows at night in the 60's.
We opened the windows and slept very well. It got a bit warm during the day, but we had very little time inside while we were there.
The fire pits were a great place to finish off each day while we were there. Don't worry - there's plenty of firewood handy.
All in all, a great destination. I've rented homes for several years for vacations and Basswood stacks up with the best of them. Leo is a great owner, he's genuinely thinking of you and your stay. I felt if we needed anything, Leo and John would take care of it right away. I would highly recommend Basswood to anyone looking for a quiet Minnesota-nice vacation.

Excellent location and cabin well built
We love the location on Cotton Lake where we love using our kayaks and inner tubes. Good walking trails and hike to and from lake is a good cardio hike. Watched the baby bird grow but unfortunately she fell out of nest but somehow in the night she flew away. Leo has a good book & game collection of which we added 2 books. Screened in porch perfect placed to play cards and other games. So helpful to have washer & dryer. New fan help on during hot days. Friends & family nearby. Delightful to observe eagles. Leo is always available if an issue arises which didn’t happen this year. Our favorite places to vacation on Cotton Lake. Thank you Leo!

Just What We Needed
Basswood Lodge was the perfect spot for a short break from the day to day bustle. Our first real getaway since before the pandemic. The cabin is beautiful and well cared for. I was concerned about the path to the lake after reading others' comments, but it was not nearly as daunting as I feared.
Leo was very communicative, and check in/out was easy. We would definitely return!

Lovely cabin, well equipped. Not the best place to fish or swim. The steep incline to and from the lake make this more of a getaway place than a lake side vacation spot, but then I'm an old *art.

more than met our needs/beautiful sunrises
This lovely cabin more than met our needs. was well appointed and the property manager was very responsive. Unfortunately weather was not cooperative for using the canoe but it looked inviting. Several beautiful sunrises from the dock. We loved hearing the loons on the lake... not so much the neighbor's barking dog which was chained outside. I realize this is out of the control of the property owner and note it was the only downside that we experienced. Our stay was cut short due to personal circumstances but we enjoyed the time we were there. A family would surely appreciate the luxury of 2 bathrooms, washer / dryer and the WiFi.

Rustic chic on beautiful Cotton Lake!
We had a great time, was a beautiful spot for our family of 3. With a toddler, the steps, lots of places to fall, and steep grade down to the lake was tricky for the first few days, then she got the hang of it and we relaxed too. Will definitely be back when she’s a bit older! Leo was super friendly and great to communicate with, it is an absolutely gorgeous crystal clear lake, I caught a large mouth bass off the dock. Beach is rocks, not sand, but you can use the canoe that’s with the cabin to paddle over to the sandy beaches of the nature preserve. We saw many bald eagles, loons, blue heron and caught lots of fish! You’ll love it.

Magical mornings, enchanted evenings
We enjoyed a wonderful getaway over Memorial Day week at Basswood Lodge. Cotton Lake is clean and quiet, perfect for canoeing and peaceful viewing. The cabin is beautifully situated on a bluff surrounded by trees, with a perfect amount of property space to enjoy the woods and lake from the screen porch, deck, fire rings and lakeside/dock area. Mornings are magical listening to the songbirds, and evenings are enchanted with loon calls and fireflies. It was chilly early in our stay, and the indoor gas fireplace and provided wool blanket on the bed kept us warm. As the temperatures increased later in the week, the many windows and ceiling fans allowed us to keep the cabin cool. The cabin was clean and well-stocked with everything you’d need: towels, TP, paper towels, kitchen supplies, flashlights, first aid kits, books, games, etc., lots of extras. Gorgeous woodwork and decorations throughout - this cabin is loved, and it has a great spirit. We’ll be back, perhaps in the fall when more of the nearby Tamarack Reserve hiking trails are open to the public.

Beautiful cabin in peaceful, perfect location!
Cabin was spotless and one of the cleanest rentals we have ever stayed in. Cotton lake is beautiful,peaceful and an easy walk from the cabin. I absolutely loved all the trees as well as the bald eagles and loons that created the perfect setting. Cabin was well stocked and we did not need anything.
There is no TV or wifi, but it was perfect! Basswood provided a much needed recharge after a difficult year of loss and struggles for my family. Thank you to Leo and family for your perfect spot. I found a bit of sanity to take home with me(the swing helped). We hope to be back!

オーナーについて
オーナー : Leo A Keane
We, the owners of Basswood Lodge, are Leo, a Custom Home Builder, Gail, a School Teacher and our daughter Linnaea, an Interior Designer. Basswood Lodge has been a refuge of peacefulness and re-connection with nature each time we go to Cotton Lake.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
For me, Leo, the Custom Builder and Dreamer, I'd have to say, this property chose me. Being a builder my goal was to find a lake country property where I could build our own cabin. On a dreary, first day of autumn drive in 2002 I came upon a "for sale" sign nailed to a tree on South Cotton Lake Road. When I stepped out to take a look around, walked up to the bluff where the lake view opened before me I sensed I'd found the right place. The property had all the natural ingredients for a lake cabin, and the lake too, with clean, clear water and unspoiled vistas sealed the deal.
この宿泊施設の特徴
Our cabin is only 10 miles from Detroit Lakes, but if feels like a world of it's own. The north facing, lake side deck encompasses a stunning view across beautiful Cotton Lake to Shelley Island--a state owned Wildlife Management Area. Further across Cotton Lake is the southern boundary of the federally owned Tamarac National Wildlife Refuge. Both of these are, of course, public lands open to all outdoor recreation.
