Come enjoy 100+ feet of sandy beachfront on the beautiful Lake Lida! Lake Lida and the surrounding area has activities for everyone! Lake Lida is a 6,000+ acre lake with plenty of room for fishing, wakeboarding/waterskiing, or a leisurely pontoon ride.

We are located only 10 minutes from Pelican Rapids and 20 minutes from Detroit Lakes and 25 minutes from Fergus Falls. There are plenty of great local restaurants throughout the area, we have a list of ones we recommend in our Welcome Package.

Family Lake Trip

In from NY and this allowed for the perfect dose of lake time! Great location, perfect lake front and space for multiple families with kiddos! Love the option of having a pet so next time we’d definitely think about bringing the dog. Very accommodating & anything needed was available!

Perfect shallow lake for littles

So much water time fun was had by all. The lake is clear. The bottom is hard sand. The depth was perfect for floating about, playing spikeball, and beersby. The home has a large front yard for games, bubble chasing, and spreading out. Jeremy was very cooperative in letting us move our time from last summer to this summer as Covid hit us last year. The website and information book both said check-in was at 3, but Jeremy texted 4 to me. Not a problem, but might want to edit that. The garbage from the previous guests was a bit of a problem as pick up day wasn’t till Tuesday and we arrived on a Saturday to plum full trash cans. My family of 8 large adults did struggle getting out of the couch and loveseat… might be time for new ones as you sink low and tend to be eaten by them. This is a lovely place on a super lake. Thank you for sharing it with us!

Why they chose this property

This cabin was a family cabin that we were fortunate enough to be able to purchase this year, there are many memories as children for Chase and Ashlyn as well as some newer memories shared with Katie and Jeremy. We are glad we can share this cabin with your family and hope that you can make lifelong memories with you family on Lake Lida as we have.

What makes this property unique

Lake Lida and the surrounding area is a beautiful setting that can accommodate just about any summer or winter activity. The lake is the second largest in Otter Tail county so there is plenty of room for fishing, tubing, waterskiing, wakeboarding, or a leisurely pontoon ride. Maplewood state park is a short 5 minute trip down the road and boasts more beautiful lakes along with hiking and biking trails. After a long day at the lake, settle in around the fire pit for a beautiful view of the sunset on this west facing property.
