Nice place.

Nice cabin with a beautiful view from the large deck. Accommodations were more than adequate for the two of us and could easily manage 4-6. Also very thoughtful with extras like coffee and spices. Host was very accommodating when we asked to move our reservation out a day. Good location between other lakes and lake towns. We would go back again.

Lake Ethel cabin

My family and I had a wonderful stay at this charming Lake Ethel cabin. It’s a true quintessential Minnesota cabin. We had a wonderful time, the neighbors and property owner were extremely nice and very helpful. We would definitely stay here again. Next time though it will be in the summer because the lake was so clean and clear with a beautiful sandy bottom, great for swimming.

Little getaway

Great place to stay. Breathtaking view of lake and autumn trees. Had a great time fishing. Loose dogs was a little concern but overall was not too much of problem, with my own dog. We would definitely stay again, next season.

Perfect Getaway from the Cities

Thanks for accommodating us on such a short notice. I needed a getaway to refresh and this was perfect. It was close to other lakes and easy to get around. We had a wonderful time.

About the host

Hosted by Bruce Jonason

We have been enjoying Lake Ethel's beauty together since 1980 when Sandy's parents first purchased the property next door. We were fortunate enough to purchase that property from them in 1999 which enabled us to continue enjoying this beautiful lake. We live in the Twin Cities area and are raising six children, all of whom enjoy all Lake Ethel has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We purchased a lake cabin on this lake from Sandy's parents who first purchased the property back in 1980. We have enjoyed spending time at this lake since then. As our six children continue to grow and eventually begin their own families, we anticipate the need for more space at the lake, so when this cabin became available, we purchased it to accommodate our family's future growth. In the meantime, we are able to share these great experiences with others.

What makes this property unique

This cozy cabin sits just a few feet from the lakeshore, and you cannot help but feel relaxed as you enjoy fishing or boating by day and the cool breezes and loon calls at the campfire by night. This lot offers a shallow, weed-free swimming area, great for the kids! Feel free to bring your own boat or use ours and keep it on our small boat lift. We can provide you multiple ways to enjoy the lake: enjoy the view while connected to wi-fi, with a paddleboat, canoe, or kayaks if you would like--just ask us! We are a licensed rental property in Otter Tail County!
