Relaxing Vacation

We really enjoyed the proximity to the lake. Great views of Little Spirit Lake and Big Spirit Lake. The weather was rainy and overcast so it made for a relaxing time in the cabin. And it is a cozy cabin. We had a great time.

Nice little cabin

Cabin is exactly as advertised and was perfect for my weekend fishing retreat. Great location, nice views, perfect for an individual, couple, or small family getaway! Would definitely stay here again if I come back to visit the area.

Disappointing

The listing was misleading as the bikes were not maintained and had flat tires, seat had numerous holes in them. Kayak was full of dirty water and not well maintained. A/C unit was not working well upon looking at outside A/C unit was covered in cotton causing it not to work properly! Again not well maintained. There was weeds all over the back side of house and growing through the deck make getting to the water not desirable. Just very disappointing in what was listed and what you truly got??

We had a quiet week in the Okoboji area. We were close enough to enjoy lot of activities, but had our space when we wanted it. It was a pleasant stay!

Wonderful family vacay!

The location of this property was absolutely perfect! Quiet and peaceful right on the lake but quick drive to pretty much anywhere we wanted to go. Fishing off the deck was so much fun for the kiddos. The cabin was perfect for our family of 4. Well stocked with little essentials was hugely appreciated! Definitely will stay again!!

Great Getaway!

We enjoyed the cabin so much. There were great amenities including a keurig coffee maker so you can enjoy great morning coffee on that peaceful back patio! Nicely updated cabin. The only problem was having to leave. We miss it already.

Another great stay

This was the second time staying at this property. The host is very good about communicating with guests. The sunset over Little Spirit Lake is wonderful from the deck. The weather was great so we were able to take advantage of the deck and the nearby beach. The cabin is close enough so we could run in quickly and pick up items, but far enough to avoid crowds.

Cozy little hideaway

Such a sweet little house. On a strip between TWO lakes! We saw big bass jumping out back, and a little chipmunk snuck up on the porch to say hi. The home was clean, well-stocked, and convenient. Thanks much for a lovely Okoboji visit!

Wedding getaway

We had a great time here using it for lodging during our wedding. The deck was beautiful and overlooked little spirit lake. We were even able to catch a couple fish from the deck! Decorations were so cute and made the property feel so modern. It definitely gave tiny-home vibes (in the best way)! The door lock and key were secure. The A/C worked well and we had all the amenities we needed. The only thing I would suggest be added would be a lamp in the bedroom for softer lighting than the fluorescent overheads.
