Summary: We had a fantastic five-week stay this summer at this beautiful home in Okoboji. The location was ideal—just a short walk to both Arnold’s Park amusement park and Taco House, yet tucked away enough to enjoy peaceful lakefront sunsets every evening.The house itself was perfect for our family. With four functional bedrooms, including a spacious primary bedroom with stunning lake views, there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. One of the bedrooms was especially large and had three closets, which worked perfectly for our three young daughters. The kitchen and living room were comfortable and great for relaxing or sharing meals, and the pantry was a nice bonus for a longer stay. The laundry area was conveniently located near the bedrooms, which made everything easy.Swimming off the end of the dock was a highlight for the kids, and the boat hoist was much appreciated. The air conditioning kept us cool on those hot Iowa days, and the three-car garage gave us plenty of space for our vehicle and bikes.Kristin and Cory were wonderful hosts—accommodating, generous, and always responsive. This was truly a fabulous place for a family gathering at the lake, and we’re grateful for the memories we made here.Highly recommend!
