Pet friendly with a beautiful private backyard overlooking a small creek. We also liked being in a quiet a quiet neighborhood with only a 5-10 minute walk to a public lake access point. The Edison bulbs, along with many fireflies, added a lot as well. We would book this property again.
Very good place. The minor property issues were reported to the owner who said they’d fix them. While the location is not on the water, the description is accurate and it is within walking distance. A little extra dusting of the wood blinds, sweeping off the deck, etc would raise it from very good to excellent.While the price isn’t cheap, it’s appropriate for Okoboji in the summer.

Liked: Check-in, listing accuracy
I like that it was spacious and hidden near the trees and creek. The porch was dusty and the driveway/entrance would look nicer if it was power-washed. The house needs a deep cleaning. Found socks and perfume bottles under bed that was not ours. Comforters should be washed after each visitor. They appeared used. When searching for my kids toys between the couch creases, I noticed it to be very dusty. It needs vacuumed.
Great place to stay amenities and cleanliness wise, however, the number of beds is inaccurate on the listing. It reads there is a King, Queen, 2 twin bunk beds, & twin bed for a total of 7 mattresses. Rented this place for a fishing tournament for 6 guys that we would each have our own beds. Arrived and one of the bunk bed and the twin are not present so only had 4 mattresses for 6 guys... Also, messaged host before booking that we would have 3 trucks and 3 boats and if there was enough parking (from the photo of concrete outside it appeared there would be) and they assured us enough parking. Picture was very misleading (taken in .5 zoom), concrete was 30' x 30' enough to unhook one boat in the garage, unhook one boat outside, squeeze two trucks in remaining parking, and our third truck and boat had to park 15 min away at other friends rental that had room. If 4 beds, parking for 3-4 vehicles max, and want good proximity to the lakes and town, this place was fantastic in all those aspects!

Thank for staying with us. The bed mapping is correct in our system:
Primary Suite -King Bed
Guest Bedroom 1 - Queen Bed
Guest Bedroom 2 - Full/Twin Bunk Bed, Twin Trundle
Queen Sofa Bed in Living Room
Total Sleep Count is 10
No communication after check-in or we could have reminded about the pull out sofa and the parking to the south of the property. OR the public boat ramp and parking area at the bottom the hill about 500 yards away.
