Nice property for large families
This was our second year staying here with our large family (10 adults and 3 small children). This house offers lots of space inside and outside and a nice beach/swim area. House is nicely finished and decorated with comfortable beds, but could use a couple small touches like extra bath and kitchen towels, a hook for towels in the master bathroom and some furniture in the bedrooms like a dresser or small table for setting out belongings. Yard is great for yard games but could use a little shaded area in the back. Kitchen is well stocked, the only thing we were missing was a can opener which we purchased and donated. The house does need some small repairs which we have detailed to the management company. There is a grocery store, gas station, restaurants, golf, and shopping very close by, which is convenient. Our only real disappointments were things that were probably out of management’s control, such as the huge bug population and the swimmer’s itch we got from playing in the lake. Overall I would recommend staying here with a large group or family.

Good experience
We had a group of 12, three families with kids ranging in age from 6-15. Everyone enjoyed themselves and the kids had plenty to do playing and swimming on the beach. Lots of space for everyone. With 12 there’s a big need for towels, extra blankets/pillows and garbage space, I’d just recommend accommodating that better. Sunlight shines in from all the blinds/curtains so be ready to greet the day at sunrise as they don’t have any light blocking features, hard to complain about the sun though. Hope to be back in the future!

our stay
loved everything about the property. Could have been better stocked. No black towels for removing makeup, definitly need more towels and washclothes as well as linens. No sheets for the sofa beds and could have used more blankets. Also, leave more soap for the dishwasher. With 12 people staying, we ran the dishwasher 2 times a day and with teenagers, constantly washing towels/washclothes several times a day. Other than that, a wonderful time and planning on booking again.

Didn't want to leave!
Went to Ottertail Lake for a relaxing friends getaway. We were not disappointed! House was clean and as pictured in listing. Way more than enough room for 6 adults. Great kitchen. The air fryer was a pleasant surprise. Loved the option to have firewood delivered right to the house. Darin set it up for us and it was so convenient. Darin was quick in getting back to any questions I had before our trip. We had an issue getting the front door to lock on the day we left, but the management company was able to help us right away. Carr's Market in Ottertail had everything we needed, items were fresh and it seemed to be priced appropriately. Overall, a great stay and I would book this lake house again and again!

Great Lake home experience
This house worked very well for our family of 8. House is well stocked with a great floor plan, comfortable beds, and best of all, it is right on the water. There’s a market for essentials just one mile away and 2 larger towns within 15 minutes. We also rented a pontoon and spent lots of time on beautiful Ottertail lake. One small issue was that the cleaning crew was not done when we arrived (after 4) and may have taken some short cuts as the house was not what I would call spotless. Also would be great to have shade in back of the house - there was a large umbrella there but it was broken. Overall great experience and we would definitely return!

Polar Plunge
Beautiful house with plenty of space. We did the polar Plunge right down the road and was awesome being close by it. Was nice to have a real fire place instead of just gas. Pretty sure a couple of the couples will be doing their kitchen with a island just like there.

This was a great property.
This property’s layout was perfect for our group. Loved the house. The place was clean, and the outdoor space was wonderful too. We appreciated having plenty of parking since we had a number of drivers in our group. We were able to anchor our JetSki near the dock, and the hot tub was wonderful. On the rainy day we appreciated having WiFi and being able to get into our Netflix account. Loved the local restaurants.

Winter Weekend. 5+ stars
*This place is top notch!!* I have stayed in about 10, VRBO's across the country, and this listing is by far the most accurate and above my standards. VERY CLEAN, VERY. The flooring throughout was spotless- I can't explain how comfortable this made me feel. The linens, furniture, and dishes spared no expense and I felt as though I was at a 5 star resort. I love clean- and the owners of this place nailed it. Well done. Check-in was a breeze! I can't stand when you have to meet someone and then walk the property for 20-30 minutes all while you're trying to just walk in and relax. Code was given for door lock at this place and that was it, waa-laa. The grounds appeared beautiful and well maintained. Owners definitely aren't afraid to invest in quality. We got to enjoy the sunset on our first evening here, and it was AMAZING! The hot tub was in the perfect place and plenty of space for 2 couples enjoying a weekend together while sipping on a few adult beverages. I could go on an on about how this property impressed me. Full service Wi-Fi, easy access to the public landing to get some ice fishing in, cozy and relaxing, plenty of space, showers and bathrooms were updated; and for a chilly winter weekend, the fire place(s) were to die for! Kitchen appliances, towels, soaps, and accommodations to cook were 5+ stars, this property had it all. (I've cooked in other VRBO's and either grossed out by the kitchen entirely, or it was lacking proper space and utensils- not this place- dream kitchen here!). I had to google address, because under all that snow, I just knew there had to be a sandy beach in front of this place, and YES- there is. I would LOVE to return to utilize that beach :-). I would definitely consider bringing my family back, and even share with another family because there is space for two families here, easily. Full kitchen up and down stairs. We didn't use it, but top of the line washer/dryer on site. No signs of animals or pet hair in sight- LOVE THAT! My single complaint, while inquiring with the property management on VRBO prior to booking, I asked about a particular weekend, and after it was decided I was going to pick this place, the listing went up $11/night after I inquired. I was disappointed that the response was prompt on my other questions, but I was ignored on the email I sent about the price increase. Maybe something the owners should look into with their property manager.
