Accommodation Description

· Kid-friendly · Barbecue

Set on Pelican Lake in Orr, Otter Tail County, seven miles north of the city of Pelican Rapids, this private Minnesota island rental offers luxury amenities, beautiful accommodations, and plenty of opportunities for outdoor recreation. On this totally private island, guests will have a 100-year-old, recently-remodeled cabin, which offers eight bedrooms and can sleep up to 20 guests. There is a full bathroom and a half bathroom and each bedroom comes with its own antique sink. The kitchen features all the necessary appliances, including two refrigerators and two freezers. Guests will also have access to a gorgeous stone fireplace, a sunroom, and a screened porch with four swinging beds suspended from the ceiling. There is also a sauna house with a shower, a washing machine, and a dryer.

This Minnesota island property also has a 75-year-old log cabin rental that sleeps up to four and has a card table. There are two additional outhouses, one as a game room with an air hockey table and the other is a TV cabin or movie house with a large-screen TV. There is no cable but it does come with Apple TV for movie night.

Pelican Lake is a superb fishing destination and is ideal for crappie and bass, so guests can relax and cast a line off the dock in complete seclusion. Guests can bring their own boats or rent a 21-foot pontoon boat from the hosts. Additionally, there are trails throughout the lush woodland to explore. Read More

Boating/Sailing

Pelican Lake and its 11,000 acres, is excellent for crappie and bass fishing, boating or water sports. Kayak around the 9,500 feet of shoreline or out to the nearby state park on Big Island—a 210-acre nearby island just waiting to be explored! Guests who stay here will have the entire island to themselves—no other cabins on the island. Go hiking nearby or fish at one of the several private bays. The island will offer guests a vast land to play, explore or pick raspberries in total seclusion.
