The property sits along a quiet, dead-end gravel road, just a short drive from a paved county highway.

Some campsites you drive up to. This one you earn — and the lake is with you every step of the way. The Hilltop sits on 7.5 acres above Stalker Lake in Otter Tail County, offering something genuinely rare: a private hilltop campsite with panoramic lake views and direct access to a lakeside sandy area and dock below. The climb to the site is about 250 feet and steep, but the lake view opens up from the first step and only gets better as you go. There's a bench halfway up for good reason — stop, catch your breath, and take it in. By the time you reach the top, you'll understand why guests keep coming back. Below the hill, your lakeside area is set up for full days outside. A large, deep-sand terrace sits just above the water with Adirondack chairs, a picnic table, fire ring, and easy stair access down to the lake. The shoreline is riprap, but the lake bottom is firm sand — great for wading, swimming, and getting in and out of the canoe. It's the kind of spot where nobody moves for three hours and nobody apologizes for it. The lakeside area is shared with your hosts when we're around — friendly neighbors, not hoverers. The hilltop and lakeside area are separated by Stalker Lake Road, a low-traffic country road easy to cross on foot. Two fire rings — one at the hilltop, one at the lakeside area — mean the evening belongs to you wherever you want to spend it. Sunsets here are a nightly event, not just a backdrop. Well-behaved dogs welcome, off-leash. The Hilltop — Worth the climb. Every time. Explore the Area You're well-positioned for a full Otter Tail County experience. Glendalough State Park (15 min) — trails, swimming beach, creek tubing, kayak/bike/SUP rentals. Inspiration Peak (15 min) for a scenic hike. Phelps Mill County Park and Maplewood State Park within 40 minutes. On the water: fish off the dock, launch at Stalker Lake public access (0.25 mi) or Long Lake (1 mi), rent a boat or pontoon through Enclave Marine or G3 Rentals, or ask us about the Otter Tail River float. Battle Lake (10 min) for dining, groceries, and a lazy afternoon. Stalker Lake Golf Course & Bar is one mile away — walkable if you're feeling ambitious after the hill.

THE NEXT CHAPTER FOR SPORTSMAN’S LODGE Welcome to your home base in Osakis—where things are a little nostalgic, a little modern, and always evolving. Our 20-unit motel is in the middle of a full glow-up, brought to life by a local husband-and-wife team who saw the potential and ran with it.

Each guest room has been fully renovated with a fresh, modern feel, so you’ll have a comfortable and stylish space to unwind. That said, we’re still actively working on the property, so don’t be surprised if you see a familiar face or hear a little progress happening nearby during the day. It’s all part of the story here—and we think that’s what makes it special. We’re located within walking distance to everything Osakis has to offer, making it easy to explore, relax, and settle into lake life at your own pace. We offer a fully virtual check-in experience (hello, convenience 🙌), so you can arrive on your own time and get settled without the wait. While we don’t provide daily housekeeping, each room is stocked with everything you should need for your stay—and if something comes up, we’re just a message away and happy to help. We may not be the Ritz, but we’re clean, comfortable, locally owned, and full of character—and we’re building something really special here. We’re so glad you’re part of it.

Weekend Trip to Lower Elk Lake - Full RV Hookup

From the very beginning Russell was great to work with! He answered all of our questions in a timely manner. He was always polite and helpful with suggestions of places in the area. His communication was amazing! He let us know about the wildlife on the property. He told us there was a killdeer birds nest in the grass which was helpful so we’re able to avoid it with our dogs.. We stayed there for Memorial weekend and had a great time. It was peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed kayaking off the dock they had. We enjoyed sitting around the camp fire. We all enjoyed being at Russel’s place. We would go again in a heart beat. Only thing to watch out for would be one of the neighbors dog, a German Shepard. He was really sweet and friendly, just startled us every time because he was so quiet. You would look over and he would be standing there like he was part of the group hanging out. There is plenty of room to play yard games. It was a great getaway. Thank you Russell for having us!!

Super cute spot! Really enjoyed it. Loved the spaciousness around the cabin and the fact that it had a picnic table right outside of it. Lots of trails to walk my dog around, which was perfect. The only thing I'd say is--make sure you pay attention to your drive to the spot. There are no wayfinding signs out in the trails!

Weekend Trip to Swift Falls County Park

We stayed on the island site and it was beautiful. Its a bit of a walk to and from the car/bathroom, but still very worth it. The rushing river is the perfect natural white noise to fall asleep to and makes it feel like a very private area even with other sites not far away. We didn't even hear the other campers. Downsides: the shower isn't very good. Just a pipe coming out of the wall (water is a good temp though), a mirror in the bathroom would also go a long way, and finally we couldn't find/buy wood where they said it would be and never received an answer or call back when we tried to asked about it and even left a voicemail Friday evening (we stayed fri-sun). Overall I'd still definitely recommend this site and would happily come again. Very peaceful beautiful area with a state park not far away. Great weekend getaway!

No matter the time of day, the lighting in Auntie's Grove is perfect!

Kobi's place was an amazing site, just outside of town so everything was close, but the site was nice and quiet and very secluded. We were encouraged to burn as much wood as we desired for our campfires, which was awesome. We also enjoyed the calm lake with our paddleboard, and visits from the ever so friendly pup. They gave us a local area tourist guide and were happy to provide any help. All in all I wouldn't hesitate to come back as the site was fantastic and the hosts were even better!

We couldn't find a single thing to complain about during our stay at Audrey and Richard's farm. This was easily one of the most comfortable, well-organized, and spotless places we visited on our entire cross-country journey from Boston to Seattle. Beyond the beautiful property itself, we were delighted by our conversations with both hosts. They're genuinely fascinating and inquisitive people – the kind you could happily chat with for hours! Their thoughtfulness extended right to our departure, when they sent us off with fresh fruit for the road – such a sweet and generous touch. One night wasn't enough time to fully enjoy such a wonderful place, and we're already planning our return visit.

About
