"The house has many positives like the awesome backyard, limited steps down to the lake, great sand area for the kids, gradual entry into the lake and a nice play set for the kids. The house is spacious so it didn’t feel crowded. They made it very easy and convenient to rent their pontoon at a great price. Excellent location, close to grocery stores, restaurants, gas etc. Highly recommend!"

Top Otter Tail County Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Detroit Lakes - Lakefront by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"All as expected."

The Mill Hotel

8/10 Good

"This was a lovely place, and I enjoyed the stay. The building is very nice, the industrial feel is cool and unique -definitely a good place with a nice vibe. I was a little miffed that I reserved a river view room, and was assigned to one - but switched to another room before I arrived. It only had a view of parking lots. (There is no staff present, so I just let it go.) Not the hotel's issue, but they gave me a receipt for $83 - but I paid Hotels.com about $40 more than that. I know they take a cut, but wow: that seemed like a lot. Despite my small complaints here - this was a great place to stay, easy walking to the downtown area, or the walking trails along the river. Definitely a good place to stay!"

Lake Cabin- PickleBall, HotTub, Sauna, IceBaths, Slide, EV Charging, Biking path

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely incredible property. My family loved staying here. It’s Super peaceful Lakeside retreat with awesome spa amenities to help you relax. We really enjoyed the hot tub, Sauna and ice baths that are easily available right outside the master door. Also, there’s an outdoor shower where you can rinse off easily. The lake is very beautiful and peaceful. Seems to be clearer than all the lakes have been to. Right across the street from the cabin is the Pickleball, volleyball, basketball courts and fish cleaning building. When the weather was bad, we snuggled in watching movies & used the massage chair & red light therapy setup. They have high speed Starlink Internet. They had a crib before my baby, which is nice. The hosts were very quick to respond unlike other places we’ve been. And the place was very clean. You can tell they really care for their guests and want them to have a good time. Overall, a very good experience for our family! If you’re wanting to escape the chaos of the busy cities & relax by the lake with awesome amenities this is a gem!"

Adorable and bright lake house! Retro feel all the modern amenities

10/10 Excellent

"Our 3 day stay was wonderful. The cabin was spotless. We loved the sunsets and sunrises. The directions to the cabin was very accurate and we had no trouble finding it. The host was easy to reach through texting and she answered quickly to any questions we had. The only complaint I had, and it was my fault, is that we accidentally left our cooler there with all our food in it and the cleaning lady threw all of the food away. I would recommend this cabin to anyone. It was a wonderful place. We never did watch any television as we needed our password to access it and neither Laurie nor myself knew what either of our passwords were. Again, I would recommend this place and if I ever return to the area, I will definitely stay there again."

Honeymoon Suite on West Battle Lake •Sugar Sand Beach•Remodeled Cabin

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay! Very modern lake house! This house is on a really big lake and there is a really nice dock set up. We especially appreciated the dock seating options by the water. There is also a fire pit. Unfortunately, we couldn’t use the kayaks or fire pit because it was very windy during our fall stay. But those options are available. There are nice chairs and a picnic table at the top of the hill by the house also. The living room space is awesome because it is surrounded by windows to view the lake. We kept the screen door open facing the lake to get the breezes and hear the water. The hosts were great at communicating with us by text! We would definitely stay here again!"
