THINGS TO KNOW
Seasonal private docks are typically placed for Memorial Day thru Labor Day. These are placed and pulled by a 3rd party and several variables come into play such as lake levels, snow and company availability. We do our best, but these items are non refundable items if a problem occurs with their timing of putting in the water and pulling from the water.
Seasonal bbqs are available from Memorial Day thru Labor Day. BBQs are propane and tanks are provided. We strongly encourage you to review your tank level in the morning and if a replacement is needed please reach out to your local contact for a tank replacement.
Occupancy and parking can not be exceeded.
No fires or firepits are ever allowed due to the heavy timbered area and county restrictions but the propane fireplace is allowed.
Winter Rentals: We always recommend 4x4, chains or studded tires to get to our winter open houses. Some renters have better traction tires and can access the homes without them but we don't recommend it. Also, weather changes rapidly in our mountain location. We always suggest preparing for the worst. Also, many Les Schwab Tire Centers have the ability to purchase tire chains, and if you don't use them, will take them on return.
Parking notes: There is free parking available for 2 vehicles.
Dock details: *seasonal
Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation for this Property includes a nightly damage waiver fee, plus tax if applicable (the “Damage Waiver”). (A discount may be applied for stays of 28 nights or longer, if permitted.) The Damage Waiver covers you for up to $3,000 of accidental damage to the Property or its contents (such as furniture, fixtures, and appliances) as long as you report the incident to the host prior to checking out. The Damage Waiver fee eliminates the need for a traditional security deposit.
More information can be downloaded from the "Rental Agreement" on the checkout page.
Due to local laws or HOA requirements, guests must be at least 21 years of age to book. Guests under 21 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian for the duration of the reservation.

Alex B. Jun 13, 2025 07:00:00 AM
Summary: The Ottertail Cabin is very clean, nicely updated, and a perfect fit for our small family. We especially enjoyed the deck. The dock, however, is quite unstable and did not fit our fishing boat well. We otherwise really enjoyed our stay!
Leslie R. Jun 12, 2025 12:26:06 AM
Summary: Excellent accommodations, beautiful grounds, great location. Superb communication with host. Kitchen stocked. Really couldn't have been better. Thank you Janelle!
Chuck S. May 14, 2025 01:02:02 AM
Summary: The property is amazing with great views and perfect for a couple .The only issue is that the internet is very spotty and was out for 2 of the 4 days we stayed there
Tracie B. Apr 14, 2025 04:26:35 AM
Summary: The property is adorable, excellent attention to decorative details, very comfortable, kitchen is well-equipped, beds are comfortable. We enjoyed the board games provided by the owner. Everything inside and out was very clean.

Joanna M. Oct 24, 2024 09:29:35 PM
Summary: I came for a solo writer's retreat and was so in love with everything about the place I stayed 2 extra days. The view, the book selection, the cozy feel, quiet location, comfy deck furniture, everything just what I hoped for. Next time I'll let my Hubby come because fishing from the dock would have been great too. I hope to make this an annual tradition!

Summary: 1. Sauna not working. 2. Check propane heater. 3. Dryer squeaks loudly after running awhile. 4. Garbage disposal smelled terrible when we arrived and water needed to be run to smell and taste better. 5. Would be nice to have a blind in the bathroom. 6. Microwave food cover would be useful. Loved our stay though! Wished to use the sauna, so that was disappointing.

Summary: We came to Ottertail and Joseph for the first time to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This house was the perfect size and layout for the two of us and would be comfortable for 4. The house and furnishings are very comfortable, memory foam beds, and darkening shades in rooms. It is a very quiet location. The house has almost everything we needed, although it would have been awesome to still have access to the propane outdoor fireplace and grill thru September. The sauna use was really lovely, just be aware the neighbors have partial views of you getting in and out. The house is a great location to town, 20 mins to the south end of the lake. Much of the business are closed at the end of September during the week, so plan accordingly. We did splurge for the tram on a nice day. The private dock is great, so bring a paddle board or kayak! We would love to stay here again.

Summary: Very nice little cabin overlooking the lake. Wonderful deck where you can sit and enjoy the peaceful serenity and views.
