S Side Lake Melissa ~ Flat Lot ~ Heart of DL Lakes Country ~ Sunroom ~ Sandy

Charming cabin on the south side of beautiful Lake Melissa. The location is absolutely ideal; it's a quiet area but is located just minutes from all the action of lakes country. The cabin is situated on a flat lot, with a large sunroom allowing perfect views of the lake that is just steps away. The lake bottom is clean sand that stays shallow, so is perfect for swimming. 3 bed, 1 bath cabin with several recent upgrades. Sleeps 6 comfortably on 3 large beds - plus a sofa bed in the sunroom. The property includes a nice patio area (right on the water) with Solo Stove fireplace, gas grill, Blackstone griddle, 75' dock, Maui Mat, Paddle Board, yard and board games, TV/DVD and much more. Extra parking is available across the road. Close to all sorts of the area's top amenities such as WeFest (5 miles), Detroit Lakes (9 miles), Wildflower Golf Course (5 miles), Detroit Lakes Country Club (Pine to Palm) (4 miles), Pelican Lake Zorbaz/Cormorant Pub area (9 miles), Shady Hollow Flea Market (3 miles).

Fall fishing

We stayed up here for a week to do some walleye fishing. The cabin was great. Fishing on the lake at this time due to drought wasn’t good but that can’t be helped. We ended up doing on a guided tour on Pelican Lake and caught our limit of Walleye 🙂🙂. We loved the view of the lake and the cabin. I would recommend this cabin for families with young kids during summer time, they’d have a blast in the lake. A nice sandy bottom. The hosts are very kind and great with communication 🙂

S.Mellissa cabin

Cabin was everything that was stated. Clean and quiet, and so serene. Owner had great communication with me. Very much appreciated this, there was a large storm that came through the area and the owner checked up on us . Definitely would stay again.

A true home away from home.

Me and my four employees stayed here and really enjoyed our time spent there after work. It was my first time staying at a vrbo that had all the amenities that you would expect when you where going to your own cabin. Not just an empty cabin.
