Haven house is the perfect place to enjoy all things lake country! Cotton Lake is one of the best kept secrets of the Detroit lakes area. Beautiful beaches, breathtaking views, crystal clear water and prime Minnesota fishing! This is a very unique property! Not only do we have a main cabin to stay in and enjoy, but there is also an adjacent bunk house with its own private bathroom and patio space. We can comfortably sleep twelve guests!
In the main cabin you'll love the freshly remodeled space with vaulted ceilings, new flooring, and an open concept floor plan that has an unbeatable view of the water from the kitchen, dining and living room areas. There are two bedrooms – one with a king bed and the other with a queen bed and a shared full bathroom. Walk right out the patio door onto a nice wood deck and enjoy the great outdoors. There is also a fire pit out front facing the water, where you can sit outside and enjoy the views from sun up to sundown!
The bunk house is a large open space with vaulted ceilings, new flooring, and a remodeled bathroom. Not only is the inside of the bunkhouse super functional, but it also offers its own private deck space! In the bunkhouse we have a full bathroom, and plenty of sleeping space with a full over full bunk bed, and two queen beds, we also offer multiple pack and play options for children. Below the bunkhouse there is a large garage area, with all the things you could need to complete your stay! It even has a built-in sink and fish cleaning station. If you just want to relax and enjoy the water, we offer a Lily pad, paddle board, two adult kayaks, and a mini kayak, tons of water toys, and floaties!
We are a family friendly property, included with your stay you will find two highchairs, multiple pack and plays, kids dining sets, and life jackets to make sure to keep your littles safe!
We are in a prime location for all sorts of activities in the area! 3 miles to K&K and Charlie's tubing. Take a trip down the Ottertail River and come back to haven house to relax after a day on the river! A little over 2 miles or 4 minutes to Fishbowl on Cotton Lake! Enjoy great food, and amazing company! 8.5 miles to Detroit Mountain recreation area, enjoy mountain biking, outdoor concerts, or hiking through the beautiful scenery! Detroit lakes is less than 15 mins away, so if you forget anything, or want to grab a bite to eat in town, you won't be far from Walmart, Zorbaz, downtown shopping, whatever you need! If you’re looking for something closer, Four Corners, offers off sale liquor and is a full-service gas station that is less than 6 minutes from the cabin! Charlie’s place is 9 miles from the cabin, another great bar and grill on Height of Land Lake!

We really enjoyed our stay. Plenty of sleeping space for kids/grandkids and beds were very comfortable! Grandkids loved the beach and fishing off the dock. Newly remodeled modern feel. Plan to stay again!
We chose Cotton Lake as our destination for our final family trip for the summer before our two older kids go/return to college. We had a wonderful relaxing time! The bunkhouse was great for the kids and gave them and us some space ; loved the paddle board /kayaks etc; we spent quality time together in a beautiful setting !! Good communication with the host too; we would do it again !!

Overall we were pleased with booking this house. Even though there are plenty of beds (which is great), living spaces were a bit too small for the number of people that could sleep there. I have a few notes that others may find helpful to know in advance and hopefully can be enhanced for future guests.
-Poor outside lighting between the main house and bunk house. We had a few trip upon reaching the deck when walking at night and ended up falling and cutting up their knees. Bring flashlights if you plan to utilize both spaces. (Or extra bandaids)
-Beach had a lot of washed up weeds. It doesn’t appear there was much clean up maintained on the beach. We raked ourselves.
-Bedroom doors inside the cabin provide no privacy. If you have guests who want to stay up in the living room or kitchen, it’s impossible for others to go to bed as the bedroom doors are slat doors. You can hear everything and all the light shines through. I wish there were real bedroom doors.
-Steep hill from parking to the main house, there is no driveway. I wished this was clearer in the photos so we were more prepared for loading and unloading.
-Some of the furniture wasn’t in good shape, the couch legs were wobbly, the outside lounge chairs were broken so the backs didn’t stay up, and a counter stool wasn’t level because it was missing a piece on one leg.
-Bunkhouse door didn’t lock from keypad. Said it was locked but you could walk right in so it didn’t feel very safe when we left the property.

Overall we had a great time — just a little small for 8 of us
This property was exactly what we needed in a cabin! Clean, comfortable, well stocked and most of all- ready for us to enjoy! The adults enjoyed some much needed relaxation and plenty of lake time. The kids loved the sandy beach and swimming area, with lily pad and floaties included. The internet was good enough to use for streaming or work emails. We rented the nice pontoon and highly recommend it as well.
