I've got the strong feeling we're not talking the same location here.
If you look at the map, there is a big lake in the middle, and there are rivers to the north, west, east and south.
If you follow the river to the south you encountered bandits who attacked a group of traders. And you had to choose to side with one or the other.
The bandits den though is at a different location: follow the river east from the lake and you will find it at its end.
You have to know the PW to enter it, you got it either from the "Mattis-rescue" quest or if you sided with the bandits in above atack.
In the den you'll get a number of different quests.
