I loved how clean and big the room was. The room smelled like cedar wood. It was refreshing NOT to smell a mildewy room. I enjoyed the pool and the fire pit area. The location was ideal. I was dissapointed I couldn't watch local tv channels for the price we paid though.

Ok
Ok place to stay. Was clean. Bed was comfortable. Shower was hot. Property was nice. Thought it was a little expensive for what I got. Hotel is old, but pretty well kept. Breakfast was all bread/carb (waffles, donut holes, toast, min-muffins, cereal, mini bagels). Overall ok and cheaper than other options in Okoboji - but I wouldn't go out of my way to stay there again.

Great for families
A beautiful property, with fun family-friendly features like fire pits (with wood provided), grills, and games, as well as a nice outdoor pool. All very well-maintained. Comfortable bed, very clean room and bathroom.

Nice! Clean! Active!
Great room. Outside fire pit. Restaurant/bar. Nice, old-fashioned pool. Well-renovated. Just a nice place, family-friendly . . . close to activities. Priced right. Beautiful flowers and nice porch seating for two. Recommended.
