Beautiful and spacious spot for family gathering
My husband and I, my 3 adult siblings and their spouses, and our parents all gathered here for Thanksgiving week. The location was right on Ottertail Lake, with beautiful sunsets that I'm sure are even more lovely when it's not frozen. The home was well-appointed with wood-burning and gas fireplaces, comfortable couches and beds (some very low to the ground), and stylish furnishings. The large upstairs and smaller downstairs kitchens came in handy for making a big meal. And we enjoyed playing ping-pong in the heated garage. A few issues noted during our stay: 1) Another family showed up a hour after us, saying they'd booked the place through another rental listing company. The manager told them he'd find them another place to stay. 2) The hot tub didn't heat properly so wasn't usable; the manager later refunded the hot tub fee. 3) The dishwasher was not bolted in place and tipped out of the cabinet, and some lights were out on the deck and over the stove; the manager sent someone to fix these things while we were there. 4) The place was tidy but in need of a deep cleaning (cobwebs in the corners, dirty light fixtures and vents, soiled oven floors, and some very full fly traps dangling over the island and dining table that we had to remove). 5) Though the kitchen had lots of basic gear and small appliances, it lacked wine glasses, cutlery, and silverware (4 butterknives for 10 adults). Thankfully, we brought our own chef's knife and some plastic utensils.
