Best Weekend
We could NOT have been happier with this rental. I grew up in Okoboji so coming home to spend the holidays with family is always special. This Vrbo hadn’t come up on our search prior and we couldn’t have been more surprised & happy. The owners are local, we’re more than accommodating and so responsive. Our kids LOVED the nature walks in the back yard, seeing all the deer, squirrels and turkey out the back door and the tree house/loft we had NO idea about was the best place for hot chocolate and a book at the end of the night. It was also very spacious, we spent most of our time at the house rather than my father’s! Spudnuts is just down the road, if you haven’t been: GO. Location is great, so close to the lake. I hope this is available every time we return home - will definitely book again!!

Great Stay!
It was a beautiful house in a great location! We loved that is was close to everything but you felt very secluded. We also loved the deck. The only thing I would note is there aren’t curtains or blinds in the bedrooms. But I would definitely recommend staying here!

Wonderful!
We really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful wood-like feeling of the property works great with the Scandinavian vibe of the house itself. We saw a deer in the back and then there was one right un the driveway! New appliances, beautifully stocked kitchen, the house had everything our family needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend!

Great Place for Our Family
The house was very nice and everything inside appeared to be new. The location was easy to get to all the place in Okoboji. The property has a ton of flowers and mature trees so felt like you’re secluded.

Magical Cabin
Wonderful weekend with friends. The cabin is in a great location with a wonderful view. We had three couples stay at the cabin and it worked out nicely. Coffee in the mornings on the deck watching the deer was a highlight!

Even better in person!
This property was beautiful. The beds were comfortable, having 2 bathrooms was great! Close enough to everything that you can walk, bike, or scooter. We have a large boat and there was plenty of room for parking plus the loading ramp was less than a mile away. Thanks for a wonderful time!
