Beautiful retreat with lake views from almost every room! Easy entertaining with full kitchen amenities on main floor and lower level kitchenette and wet bar. Keep cooking simple on the gas grill and eat outside at the full dining area on the upper patio! Great for families! One upstairs open entertainment area boasts a floor to ceiling gas stone fireplace accented by a wall of windows lakeside. The cozy downstairs gathering area has a wood burning fireplace, game table, and workout equipment with walk-out easy lake access. Both areas have high quality Samsung smart TVs. This homey retreat is climate controlled for comfort in EVERY season. Share a cup of coffee on the inviting front patio in the morning sun. French doors lead to a stunning sunroom with windows on 3 sides! Access to 100' of lakeshore offers the opportunity to swim, paddleboard or fish in the water right off the dock during the summer or ice skate, snowshoe or cross country ski in the winter and enjoy an evening making memories (and s'mores!) around a firepit all year round. Relax in one of 2 bedrooms on the main level or choose one of the cozy bedrooms downstairs. There is plenty of room to be all together or find your own little nook to read, listen to music or unwind.

This lakehome is BIG on lake hospitality conveniently located close to Ottertail City, Battle Lake, Perham, Fergus Falls each with great little shops, coffee and ice cream spots and restaurants. Zorbaz on the Lake and Beach Bums with live music throughout the summer are popular spots on Ottertail Lake. Golfing at Balmoral or Thumper Pond is another fun activity-both within a 10 minute drive. Easy access off Highway 78 and within a short driving distance to two State Parks-Glendalough and Maplewood-that offer hiking, walking and biking trails. Also near the Ottertail River-known for its lazy afternoon tubing.

There is an optional electric boat lift (max capacity 3100 lbs) for those who choose to bring their own boat. Public boat launch is only minutes away. We also have information from several partners about renting a boat/pontoon/wave runner/kayak for an afternoon, day or your entire stay!

Our aim is to provide a cozy lake home away from home and the crazy and chaotic world, to gather and create lasting memories and traditions with the people you love. We truly want to make your stay as pleasant and comfortable as we possibly can. Please let us know if you are celebrating a birthday, anniversary or something special so we can help make it even better!

    Once again we were very happy with our stay. It is so great to have a coffee maker and beach towels available. And we made great use of the floaties!

    This property exceeded every expectation we had. From spacious living areas, the extra fridge/bar area, the very relaxing sun room and the amazing lake view with beautiful sunsets. Our family enjoyed every minute.

    Property was beautiful and well maintained. We liked the space where everyone could relax. The sunroom was our favorite. The driveway was a little tricky with a boat and trailer but other than that this is a perfect place for a family getaway.

    Everything that we could possibly need was provided. We had beautiful weather! The beach toys were used by our grandkids. We sat on the dock, and the patio, and loved the beautiful sunsets. We all want to come back next year!!!

    My family came to stay at Tara's beautiful home for the second year in a row - and it was wonderful. I grew up coming to this very lake as a kid and we decided to reconnect to honor my mom after passing in 2021, as this was her favorite place to be. Tara was such a gracious and thoughtful host! She communication was quick and helpful and the home is well appointed for all ages. The kids loved having the floaties and paddle board, and the adults enjoyed all the outdoor spaces and versatile gathering spaces inside. We love our time here and are hopeful to make this a new family tradition!

    Our friend group had a great weekend! Tara was very responsive and the accommodations were top notch. We had everything we needed and more. It was nice to have some lake items and lawn games available. Would highly recommend
