It’s cabin time™ in Detroit Lakes

Your northwestern Minnesota cabin in Detroit Lakes places you right in the middle of one of the best fishing destinations in the state with over 400 lakes in the area. Big Detroit Lake is a favorite fishing hot spot for Muskie, Walleye, Large-mouth Bass, and Northern Pike. You can fish right off the all-accessible pier at the City Beach on Detroit Lake. Or maybe you’d just like to spend a day swimming and sunbathing at the popular mile-long, sugar-sand City Beach with a family game of frisbee golf at the course in the adjacent City Park.
