Okoboji Abode

JessRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our second stay at the Boji Abode was just like the first. Perfect! The house is well appointed, clean and has great beds. The patio fire pit and grill work great and the large grass open space is perfect for our kids and friends of others in our group have nightly kickball games. Adam is always very responsive if there are any questions which isn’t often with this well organized property.

Boji Candle

AnnRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Great place to stay in the Arnold’s Park Okoboji area. Our wedding venue was literally across the street. The house easily & comfortably accommodated more than the five people we had in our party without people feeling crowded, all having their own bathrooms. The host, Ann, thought of everything from lots of amenities to extra blankets, pillows, iron & ironing board, hairdryers, curling iron, and clean

Home Away From Home! 5 bdrms, sleeps 13, GameRoom!

CarrieRating, 5 stars9 months ago
Great home with multiple rooms and beds for a larger family to stay comfortably. The game room in the garage was great and provided with multiple hours of fun and some competition. Decent amount of parking. Was very clean and provided a lot of amenities that were great. They were very responsible for any questions that we had and were more than willing to help out if we had any concerns. It was a great weekend for our family, and we would totally look forward to renting this again.

Walleye Way Fish n Stay

NicoleRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Kelly was an excellent host. She responded immediately to any of our questions. The home is very nicely maintained and appointed with amenities which is very much appreciated. We were in town for my sons wedding and her home was located close to the venue and to where he was staying so it was very convenient for us. It’s also only a 10 min drive to the cute downtown area which had quaint shops. I would definitely recommend!

Quiet home on the lake

DanRating, 5 stars3 days ago
We really enjoyed staying right on the lake! I really appreciated that everything was labeled and easy to find along with the welcome basket and personal note that was a nice touch! The extra towels, life vests and amenities were great and everyone in our group commented on how you thought of almost anything people would need. Thank you again and look forward to the next stay!

East Lake Okoboji House! Hot Tub!

KayeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our stay here was amazing!! We had 3 generations ranging from 3 to 75 years old and there was something for everyone and space for all! Little kids loved the hot tub, tweenagers liked their own basement space - everyone lived the dock fishing! Amenities of the house had everything you needed, didn’t know you needed but you wanted! Bikes, kayak and ping pong table were a big hit! Can’t say enough great things about this property, the neighborhood or the hosts - we loved it all!! Thank you!!

East Lake Okoboji - Nooks on the Narrows

GregRating, 5 stars10 months ago
We stayed here right after the flooding. the lakeside had been under water for quite a while. The place was not as inviting as the pictures but I attribute much of that to the flooding. The dock was repaired, which was important to us as we have a boat. The two houses were clean and inviting and we enjoyed the quietness of the location and the no wake requirements on that part of the lake. The neighbors were very nice and helpful. We hope to stay here again next year.

3 Bedroom Lakefront Condo at Bridges Bay!

NicoleRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Ryan’s place was very clean and comfortable. We stayed with our family of four and had a great time. We were very grateful to have details thought out like providing detergent for the washer and dryer, and soap for the dishwasher. The patio view was amazing in the mornings in the evenings. Great proximity to the water park and restaurants.

Lakefront condo - 1st floor

JeffreyRating, 5 stars10 months ago
Matt was great and very helpful. It was a very nice place, but it wasn’t very convenient to get to for unloading and loading our bags and supplies. Great view. Nice grassy area off the patio. Parking was not great. Overall a thumbs up.

Your guide to Okoboji

All About Okoboji

In northwest Iowa, right along its border with Minnesota, sits a chain of interconnected glacial lakes that are the focal point for the small resort town of Okoboji. Vintage Americana is the vibe here, with hand-dipped ice cream cones, a restored amusement park built in the 1800s that has retained its charm, a museum dedicated to classic cars, and a Great Lakes Maritime Museum with antique wooden boats.

There’s more to this area than historic storefronts and quaint main streets, though, and the locals have done a measured job balancing the old with the modern: Craft breweries have gained popularity, public yoga classes are often held on beaches and even on paddleboards, and the Pearson Lakes Art Center hosts visual art exhibits across six different galleries along with independent films. And although the area is jam-packed with attractions, the natural world is never far from reach. There are more public beaches than you can count on two hands, and well-groomed trails are easily found in Pikes Point and Gull Point state parks.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Okoboji

The lakes come alive in the summertime when hot daily temperatures make swimming and boating possible, and the town celebrates with a fireworks show every Saturday night. Each August, the Blue Water Festival is held in town to help raise awareness for watershed protection, and conservation groups, exhibitors, and musicians are invited to help get the public fired up about the local lakes. The crisp and breezy fall lures an influx of hikers and mountain cyclists to the trails, and art-lovers come to experience a local art festival that combines scenic drives with open studio tours. In winter, you can expect more than 30 inches of snow, and spring ushers in the return of the fishing season.


Top things to do in Okoboji

Arnolds Park

Just five minutes to the south of Okoboji is Arnolds Park, where you’ll find the quirky Iowa Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame, the lakeside Promenade, and bumping bars and nightclubs. The biggest draw is Arnolds Park Amusement Park, an attraction founded in 1889 with about 30 rides and attractions to enjoy, including one of the oldest wooden roller coasters in the world.

Gull Point State Park

With one of the best beaches in Okoboji, this state park provides winning views of West Okoboji Lake and amenities like a playground. In the middle sits the large Gull Point Lodge, which was constructed for the public in 1933. The self-guided hiking trails here are great for beginners as they’re just over one mile each.

Lake Hopping

Okoboji is surrounded by water, and while you’re visiting, you have the opportunity to see at least four different lakes: West Okoboji Lake, East Okoboji Lake, Center Lake, and Big Spirit Lake. Local outdoor outfitters and boat shops rent out kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, and motorboats for use on all of the lakes, and you can also fish for local favorites like walleye and perch from public docks. For another protected beachfront, check out Pikes Point State Park on West Okoboji Lake.
