The Hideaway at Xanadu Island is a family-owned Minnesota resort in Otter Tail County, MN with 4 seasonal cabins, a 2016 Airstream RV and one year-round 7 bedroom house. We are 5 minutes away from downtown Battle Lake and are on Elbow Lake. We support arts in rural communities and have expanded the resort to include a renovated barn for weddings, retreats and reunions. The Hideaway is a nature lovers dream. With over 4 acre's of land to explore the opportunities are endless! Curl up in a hammock with a book. Roast marshmallows over a big bonfire. Wake early to get the first catch of the day. Sun bathe on our floating dock. Play cornhole with friends. Bird watch-we have nesting eagles! Grill out on our outdoor grills. Explore the lake with a kayak, SUP board or canoe. Float the day away on our floaties. With no televisions on the island, you and your family will have the family vacation you have always wanted. This little island was named after the Romanticist, Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem, about the palace of ruler Kublai Kahn. A stately pleasure dome decree Where Alph, the sacred river, ran Through caverns measureless to man Down to a sunless sea Xanadu's all-inclusive approach means that motorboats, paddleboats and canoes are available anytime for fishing, cruising or drifting. No rental fees. No signatures. We even provide the life jackets. And if the water isn't your thing, come together at the fire circle about dusk or let the kids climb the playground rope and ring the bell.
