Perfect house, big and clean

The upstairs rooms are huge and worked out great for cooking, eating and playing games. Used the outdoor table to eat too and fire pit one evening. Three bedrooms downstairs are fine to sleep. All three bathrooms were updated and very nice. Couldn't ask for more..so glad this was our place to stay!

Okoboji Weekend

This was a great place for five couples for a golfing/boating weekend. There was plenty of space and the beds were adequate. The bathrooms were all updated and were nice. We didn’t use any of the cooking facilities as we chose to eat out but it looked like the kitchen was well stocked. The first course we played was just right across the highway. The boat ramp was close and easy to find.

Siblings Retreat

We had a great time. We left a list of suggestions that we thought would be helpful for future guests. We are probably ‘unusual guests’ in that we enjoy being together, cook, bake, play lots of games n stay at the house for the most part. Thank you, Alan, for responding to my ‘issues’ and bringing a new grill. I hope you have a great season!

Okoboji

Biggest and most troublesome problem happened when the lower level flooded - septic issue. Owner did send property manager (she was fabulous and worked her butt off to mediate issues) and plumber ASAP and problem was resolved after about 6 hrs. In the meantime no one could use any plumbing facilities, extreme inconvenience. This resulted in checking out 24 hrs early due to some residual moisture and disinfectant odor. Was told some refund was forthcoming.

Misrepresention of listing

Part of the house was the office for the adjacent RV park- information on the house did not disclose that the home was part of an RV park. Lower level bedrooms were dark, smelled and musty. Dishwasher did not work. Beds in one upstairs bedroom had uncomfortable beds.

Not as it looks in pictures

The property is in a RV court which is not listed on the description. The outdoor fire pit and patio area is very small and beside a busy road.. this property did not give a good depiction and the inside of the cabin is very dark. It could improve on cleanliness and the beds are not very comfortable . Many of the doors are warped, and do not close..one of the gas grills was not hooked up and the other was very dirty. I would not recommend this property.

Stay if you want be in a campground

We checked in at 4pm and the place was a mess. No one had been there to clean. I place was very dated and is in the campground with very little parking for several families to stay. The rooms are not as they look in the pictures. Upstairs 1 room with king bed, and 1 room with 2 queen beds is right. In the advertised pictures they just change the pictures and bed spreads to make it look like more rooms. The 3 bedrooms in the basement each had a full size bed with little walking room and no headboard or nightstands. This place was a step up from staying a camper in a close quarter campers. I give this place a negative 10!

Great location and nice property

We were late to planning and had only a couple options with 5 bedrooms to accommodate our full family. The property was great! I was a little concerned reading the reviews but it was great! Very clean! There were dehumidifiers in the basement to avoid any damp basement smell mentioned by others. We had a small issue with the air conditioning and left a phone message for the owner. He was at the door in 10 minutes!!! And quickly fixed the issue. The house sits right along the road but is primarily bike and golf cart traffic. We had ample parking and there is. Spot Long the road the was easy to park the boat. We were able to walk to Arnold’s park and the beach on quiet back roads. I would definitely stay here again.
