Life is better on Lake Lida!! - Open for 2024 bookings

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.

Maplewood state park is just a short drive from the lake and features many private lakes set along biking and hiking trails. It is beautiful spring, summer, and fall!

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.

After enjoying a long day on the lake or exploring the area, relax by the firepit and enjoy the amazing sunset view on this west facing property! The cabin features three bedrooms with two queen beds, one bunk bed, one full size bed and a full size pull out that can accommodate up to 10 guests! A dock is available for guest use, so bring your boat or pontoon!

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!

Enjoyed our stay, nice and clean, very well stocked. Cabin is roomy. Lake is so clear, good fishing for adults and kids. The living room couch does need to be replaced, sags alot and difficult to sit on. All in all great stay!

Perfect Place for a family get-together
My adult children, grandchildren, and I stayed for 5 nights. It is the perfect place to gather and spend time outdoors together. The 8 year old twins loved the clear and shallow water with a nice sandy bottom. All of us used the two paddleboards. It's a very nice single story house and there is only a slight slope to the lakeshore and dock, no hills to climb. There's a nice grassy yard to play corn hole and other yard games. The kitchen has everything you need, including a crockpot and 2 types of coffee makers. There are lots of towels, soaps, and a washer/dryer. Just need to bring food!

Great place to stay
This was our second stay at this location. The view of Lake Lida is stunning and the house is well kept. The house smelled very fresh and clean upon check in. We had 4 adults and 2 children and we never felt like we were too crowded. The location is great and between several cute towns with lots of shopping, beaches, etc.

This property is right on Lake Lida. It has a nice nice view of the lake from the kitchen and living room. There is a big backyard to enjoy outdoor activities, nice beach, and nice dock. I would recommend this place if you are looking for a nice getaway on the water.

Stunning sunsets!
Great location! Well stocked. Very clean. As with most places when there’s no dishwasher, counting on previous guests to clean dishes doesn’t always leave you with clean dishes. Dock needs some work but owner is aware and says they’ll be repairing. Overall we had a great time and came home with fish!

Friends Weekend
We spent Thursday-Monday at this cabin and it was very nice. There is a big yard which is perfect for games and hanging out. We enjoyed a fire each night at the firepit. The lake is very sandy and we were able to spend a lot of time in the water (bring water shoes as there are zebra mussels). You can fit 6 cars within the parking available. Overall, it met our needs and we enjoyed our time.

East side of Lida is gorgeous. The view from the property’s picture window (if sitting indoors) of the lake and sunsets is beautiful. We spent 95% of our time outdoors and had great weather. The lake is clear and has a sandy bottom. The beds were very comfortable. I would go back tomorrow if I could.

Nice Place...'Needs work & Closer Mgmt Attention
We arrived to find all beds (except 2 bunkbeds) had been used & the bedding was balled up on each. Trash had not been removed and it was obvious the place hadn't been cleanedd since last it had been used. After phone calls to management, it seems relatives had used it and not cleaned up after themselves. While management refunded our cleaning fee plus $40, what we contracted for and received was not what we paid for. Lastly, this could be a very nice place...but it needs some upkeep.
