The Gathering House by Otter Tail Lake

The Gathering House by Otter Tail Lake

10/10 Excellent
"This is a very spacious home with 3 large living areas and 5 nice sized bedrooms, all with queen sized beds. All bedrooms were well equipped with everything you need to be comfortable; extra pillows and blankets, nightstands, dressers, chairs. All 3 bathrooms were very clean with plenty of towels and hot water. The kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. The backyard is very secluded and beautiful, with plenty of seating for our group on the large deck. The house was located in the perfect place for our stay, close to town for what we needed but yet out of town on a very private lot with no neighbors that you can see. We were very thankful for the large garage to be able to park our vehicles. The TV and Alexa were easy to run. Checking in was seamless, the host had great communication, and checking out was simple. We appreciated not having a long list of "must do before you go", just a few simple items like take out the trash. We will definitely rent this home if we are ever in the area again with our large group. Thank you, Matt, for renting us your home."

Tranquil Lakefront Hygge Bee Cabin

Tranquil Lakefront Hygge Bee Cabin

10/10 Excellent
"Our instructions for the property were simple and concise and the best part was when pulling in we saw a little welcome sign with our names. The space was beautiful, with lots of natural light spilling in, and just the perfect spot for a nice vacation with family. The lake was the most spectacular part. Waking up with the sun and hearing looms out on the lake as well as wild rabbits hopping about. As for sleeping arrangements there were plenty of spots to choose from. We slept upstairs for one night and it is the darkest room when the curtain is down and coldest. However, we opted for downstairs for the remaining nights, since it was closer to the bathroom. Amenities were lovely, and thoughtful. The space itself really immerses you and makes one want to spend little to no time inside and get outdoors and explore. Overall. A truly wonderful experience and delightful stay. Will book again for all our future stays."

Otter Tail Lake Life (channel access) - 4 Bed/2 Bath - Newly Constructed in 2022

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great stay at Ottertail lake. The house was exactly as pictured. Very well stocked, spacious, and clean. Lots of great lakes in the area, but we loved fishing off the dock, where we caught northern, bass and sunfish. The lot was level and perfect for yard games and bonfires in the evening. We had a group of 8, and it was so nice to all be able to sit at the large table in the dining area, and the four season porch. The hosts were very responsive, and offered recommendations for fishing lakes and things to do in the area. We would highly recommend this listing to anyone in the ottertail area with a large family looking for a cozy, relaxing week!"
