About this property

Boji Waterfront Retreat - Millers Bay Canals

Summary:
Soak up the best of life at the lake as you enjoy our Waterfront Retreat on the Millers Bay Canals in the quiet village of Wahpeton.
This cottage has just finished its renovation and now features all new furniture and a relaxed beach house style. Your stay here will ensure your time at the lake with family or friends is an Aussie experience without the need for the 15 hr flying time!
Enjoy the kayaks or the stand up paddle board and head straight out to the dock and onto the water.

The Space:
Situated in the Miller’s Bay canals just off West Lake in the quiet village of Wahpeton.
This home in a peaceful part of the lakes district offers a private dock where your boat and jet ski can be kept for the duration of your stay. Enjoy plenty of water fun at popular West Lake or travel by boat across the lake for dinner and entertainment at Arnold’s Park area. The Barefoot bar and parks marina is about a 15 min boat ride away or a 17 min drive. Perhaps you would prefer to just enjoy the ambiance of a fire on the lawns on a cooler night and a bbq on the grill. This is a family home for creating lasting memories in.
The property itself offers a spacious split level home including 3 bedrooms, master with King bed bed and a gorgeous view of the water. The second bedroom offers a queen bed and half bath ensuite while bedroom 3 also has a queen bed. The main bathroom with bath tub and shower over the bath is situated between the two Queen bedrooms.
The large eat in kitchen has all one could need when cooking up a storm and a Nespresso coffee machine for a relaxed morning coffee on the outside patio.
There is parking available on the driveway for two cars and also for one car inside the garage.
This property is ideal for couples or families with older children.
We are Australian and therefore we hope you’ll enjoy the little Aussie touches throughout the cottage including a bottle of local South Australian wine, vegemite for you to try on toast with butter and your morning coffee or Tim tam biscuits for the sweet tooth.
If staying in winter then perhaps try your hand at some ice fishing or ice skating on the lake. Fast wifi means you can also enjoy working from your home away from home or catch up on wherever you left off watching on Netflix.
Bed linen and towels are provided for all beds.
Feel free to bring your boat. There is no boat hoist but you can tie your boat to the dock as the water remains lovely and calm in the canals.
All bed linen and towels are included but please bring your own beach towels.

**IMPORTANT** This property has no fencing between the house and the water so young children must be watched closely at all times. The house is not set up for children under the age of 6. We suggest that this is not a suitable house for those with very young children.

Cozy and quiet
Great place to stay! Very clean and comfortable. Many hiking and biking trails close by, and great kayaking. The host was very attentive and even delivered to us an item we were missing. I highly recommend Take A Break Holiday Rentals!

Take A Break Holiday Rentals Okoboji
We spent the weekend in the fall at the Take A Break Holiday Rentals in Okoboji. Had an amazing time. It was a great place to stay, and we will definitely return. It works great for us as our aunt and uncle live 3 doors down. Sat around a campfire both nights and rode bikes during the day. Very relaxing.

The house was perfect for 4! Well appointed amenities. Listing is exactly what you experience. We appreciated having dock access so close and a locked garage for fish gear etc.

August in Okoboji
We come yearly to Okoboji and this is the first time we rented a house, usually do a condo. Good location on canala and nice outdoor space. Able to paddle board and kayak and enjoy a lovely house. Grill was very nice. Unfortunately the weather was extreme hot but nice breeze on the water. Spent more time at indoor activities. Enough room for 5 adults in the home. Hope to return next year!
