Lakeside Retreat on Lake Lida

LAKE LIDA!
Experience the ultimate Pelican Rapids, MN lakeside retreat. From the moment you walk through the front door, you will feel at ease and kids will be filled with excitement when they first lay eyes on the amazing sand beach and hard sand bottom just steps away from the lakeside patio. 3 beds, 1.5 bath.


A total of bedrooms 3 and 1.5 baths. Please note while 6 people can sleep comfortably in the beds. Leashed Pets are allowed with an additional pet deposit.

Located in western Otter Tail County. Lakes are a way of life in this area, with Lake Lida being a very popular choice for vacationers. From swimming to fishing this 5,000-acre lake will provide hours of entertainment for all lake enthusiasts. With year-round outdoor activities available and area attractions nearby, you and your group are sure to have an amazing time. Maplewood State Park just 8 miles away provides an easy escape for a day of hiking, biking, horseback riding, or cross-country skiing. On a rainy day let one of the many nearby towns give you a day of shopping with some of the greatest shops that you won't find anywhere else - Pelican Rapids (6 miles), Detroit Lakes (16 miles), Perham (20 miles). When your day comes to an end, your designated cook will find a fully stocked kitchen to cook up an amazing meal; or let us make you a reservation to one of the area attractions. After dinner feel free to play a family board game or cozy up to the outdoor firepit while taking in the amazing sunset view over Lake Lida.

Don't forget the boat/pontoon/ jet ski/fish house or the snowmobiles. We do have marine rentals available as well. Public access just a mile from the house makes access to the lake an ease. Feel free to tie your boat to our dock overnight. Winter provides great ice fishing just a short distance from the house with easy access from the property for your snowmobile or ATV. Don't forget about the hundreds of miles of snowmobile trails just out the back door.

Simply put, this vacation home will provide a great vacation for all. Come enjoy central MN at its finest.

Lovely lake!
The property worked well for our group of 8 adults. The lake is shallow and clear with a sandy bottom. We enjoyed the fire pit as a great way to wrap up each day. The spiral staircase that takes you to the second floor is something to be aware of but it worked ok for us. The yard had room for games and socializing. The parking worked out great too. It is on a busy road on the front side but that was not a problem for us. I did wish there were lamps on the nightstands in the bedrooms and maybe a fan available in the bedroom on the main floor in the first unit since the AC is out in the living room, but these are minor concerns when compared to the fun we had and great lake experience. It's nice to be close to Pelican Rapids for food/groceries/firewood/etc and beautiful Maplewood State Park for scenic hiking. Thanks for a good trip!

Busy road, rooms are not connected
The house is right off a very busy road, I would be nervous about bringing my pet to such a busy road. Also, this is essentially two houses or units. They are not connected internally. You have to go outside to access the part of the house with the two bathrooms. It is essentially a 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath house and a 2 bedroom, 2 bath house next door to it.

I had higher expectations
I want to preface this with the fact that we enjoyed our stay overall. The water was great, the flat yard space was perfect for games and entertaining, and the sleeping arrangements worked for our group. That being said, there were several items that we did not appreciate and should be addressed. The floors were filthy, heat was still on, water not hooked up to the fridge, and the AC quit 4 days in and it took until the following day to be fixed. When I brought these up to the management, I was not answered. For the price, I would have expected more cleanliness and preparedness overall.

Nice place to stay
Very clean and beautiful view of the lake. Could not get the Gas fireplace or the pelt stove to work, maybe leave some instructions. The ice maker in the frig also did not work. Would have been nice to have some matches or lighter to start the grill and outside fire ring. The upstairs bedrooms are hard to get to because of the spirel staircase.

Lake Lida Getaway
Wonderful beach area and clear lake for small children but cabin could use a deep clean. Listed pictures are not totally reflective of current furnishings and layout.

Nice place- would recommend
We had a great time at this property! Lake Lida is so clean and clear!! The roads outside the property are close to the house and busy, so we had to make sure the littles stayed on the lake side. The two story part of the house has one bedroom and one bathroom on the main level. Upstairs has two bedrooms and a bathroom as well. Nice sized rooms upstairs. The kitchen is nice and had what we needed. The air conditioning (window units) had a hard time keeping the place cool when it was hot. The second part of the house has two bedrooms- one with full bed and one with two twin beds- and two bathrooms. There was not a queen bed as pictured, nor all the nice furniture. It was disappointing at first, but it met our needs for the week. We really enjoyed the outdoor space for games and hanging out. The grill provided is charcoal.

Overall it was satisfactory but didn’t totally live up to the hype. The add on unit, while attache.
The total structure was two separate units joined together but you had to go outside to get from one to the other. Dryer didn’t work. Window air conditioning wasn’t the best.

Lakefront Fun
We spent most of the week on the lake, on the beach and fire pit area. Great area for outdoor activities. Shallow and sandy, perfect for small children. Nice to have a couple of kayak's to paddle around in. Fishing was great and we all had a blast! With our large group the two kitchens worked out nice. Bedrooms are nice size with rustic style furniture in the main, larger side of the rental and smaller rooms in the smaller portion of the rental. One bedroom has the utilities which can get loud (might be the water pump since it kicks in on occasion) and interrupt sleep if you are a light sleeper.
