This property was great for our group of multiple families with young children. It is a very nice home with lots of space to sleep as well as hang out, we enjoyed the basement living room space. We also really liked having the table and fridge in the garage for games & cards in the evening. This property was well stocked. We did find that one of the bedding comforters was not cleaned well but there were extras and we just switched it out.It is within walking distance of many things to do, and we also enjoyed having the golf cart. It is also a short drive to many Okoboji attractions.There is a large outdoor space for kids to play and just across the street behind the next row of houses is a pool, so it's very easy to get to and we enjoyed using it every day we stayed!

The house was very nice, clean, and a great location. A small issue with towels being available to use. Thankfully, the host communicated they were still in the dryer the following morning after check in. We had to make run to buy garbage bags. The box only had one bag. We had twelve in our party for a three day stay.

Awesome experience

The property was very clean, kitchen well equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals, and plenty fun lakeside restaurants nearby. The large open space just off the deck was great for yard games, with the pool nearby.

Family Vacation

Everything was great! Very nice place, only complaints…the grill was very dirty and one chair was broken on the patio. But the place was stocked very well with everything we needed! Loved the pool and fishing ponds! It would be nice to get wristbands for all guests and not just 6, since our house slept 12, we did have 8 people.

Celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with our children and grandchildren

The house was a nice size and location was great (close to Bridges Bay Resort). We were disappointed in the cleanliness and condition of the house. I did contact the owner to let her know about a couple of things that were damaged when we arrived.

Hello thank you for leaving a review we appreciate your feedback, I did take note of your concerns during your stay. Since we are towards the end of the season our units do need the fall deep clean set up which those little cleanliness items will be taken care of during that time. This unit was highly sought after and had back to back bookings and did not allow time for a deep clean. We appreciate your time in writing a review we look forward to hosting you in the future. Thank you Management

Great location / very nice house

I arrived while cleaner was still there… 4:00 but that was ok. I was discouraged for the second time renting this house that not only was the grille dirty but oven was filthy. It’s a self cleaner…?? The property host was awesome got back to me in a timely fashion👍. Had issues with Roku tv .. and unfortunately due to weather we were inside more than other times.. agree. Just regular cable would’ve been so much easier. Had a nice stay but initially it was listed as a 5 bedrooms in one website but when I noticed on final payment it said 4 .. did discuss with property person. She agreed it was a mistake but could t change it since all units were filled. These people nuts are very pricy compared to 3 and 4 years ago ..

Sibling Getaway

Location was good. Front door lock had a bit of an attitude, but garage was more convenient anyway. Set-up of the house worked great. Had a wonderful experience.

Great location and big house

This is the second d year we stayed at this location! We had a good time and fit our needs of 8 little ones and 3 adults. It’s a nice house with a basement ( good for young kids) . Just a little chilly in basement. Very nice overall.

Enjoyed Our Stay!

Great location for the family wedding we were attending at Waterfront Event Center(close to many restaurants and bars too!). Worked out well for grandparents to stay in the upstairs master (bonus for the walk in shower) and the younger crew to be downstairs with the nice hang out area. We enjoyed the small neighborhood pool and the Waterpark pool (pool passes were great and so was the park's swim up bar for the 21 and over crowd). Property manager Bridget responded quickly to my questions including bringing a few more knives on a Saturday! Things that I would want other travelers to note: dressers or luggage holders in the downstairs bedrooms would have helped us feel more organized - and if you are planning on cooking, bring your own knives. It is a nice clean, quiet, family friendly location.

Great family Option

The house in the layout was a great option for our family of 12. Two pools nearby and the resort helped to mix up the activities during the week. Restaurants, golf in Arnolds Park are very close by. Are looking at coming back next year!

Family vacation

We had a very nice time. Location was good water park was so much fun as we brought the grandkids and kids with. I would definitely recommend this location. My only complaints is that we were only given 3 garbage bags , and no dish soap.. we paid almost 200 for cleaning fees and I don’t feel they did a very good job of cleaning before we got there. Overall the vacation was exactly what hoped it would be!!
