We have a family of 6 Adults and 3 kids and a dog. This home was like being home but steps away from the beach, Arnolds Park and everything that Okoboji has to offer. Our family had a wonderful time at this home. We had a newborn and toddler with us and the rooms are perfect for naps. They have 3 rocking chairs available, it was so helpful!!! Nadine is a great host!

We had an absolute wonderful vacation

The park house had everything a person could need. I thought it was wonderful and would love to stay again. The only thing that kind of was not good was the acorns. There was a lot of acorns dropping, tis the season I know. I swept regularly but it never really looked like I did. I didn't want to sit outside because I was afraid of getting hit in the head which I did but that is not of any fault to the owner what so ever. I truly enjoyed my stay and was able to just relax which was just what I needed.

Love this beautiful house and the amazing location!

This house is impeccably clean and beautifully furnished. It's in a quiet neighborhood, but as close as you can get to all the activities. The amusement park and restaurants are a stone's throw away. Love the big deck with partial views of the lake, giant walnut trees, and a fabulous view of the park:) The large living room is very comfy with oversized couches and chairs. Fully stocked with pots, pans and dishes if you want to make a great meal for family and friends. We all agreed that this house is on the top of our list of where to stay in Arnolds Park!

Location - Location - Location

We had a hunch that the location of this property was going to be a big deal. Wow. We had no idea just how big of a deal. We are so glad we didn’t stay anywhere else. If we ever come back, we will use this house again. You can see the roller coaster from the house. You can be to the park or the waterfront or anywhere you want to be within minutes, on foot. The location is absolutely perfect. The house accommodated two families no problem. One family with four kids and the other family with three. There’s plenty of green space around, a park just down the road. It was really amazing. The only teeny tiny complaint I could make is that there weren’t much for shower supplies. Bring your own shampoo and conditioner. There was a keurig machine but no k cups, and a coffee maker but no grinder. That doesn’t matter for me since I am a ridiculous coffee snob and bring all my own gear, but I could see that mattering to a lot of travelers. There are stores just down the road, and a great little coffee shop a short walk away, so not a huge deal. Stay here. Don’t be tempted by the nice looking properties near the water park. You won’t want to stay over there! Stay here, drive to the water park. You’ll want to walk to the amusement park and the water front, all the time. The freedom and flexibility it gives you is so worth it!

Dreaming of our return!

We had the best family vacation while staying at this property. The home was not only located in the most ideal location within Arnold’s Park, but it was also very clean, spacious, quiet, well-stocked, and all around just really great! We were able to walk to so many places with both the young and old in our group, and we were so grateful for the fact that this home was dog friendly so we could being the furry members of our family as well. We cooked almost all of our meals here, and had everything we needed to grill, bake, microwave, etc. The neighborhood is also a joy to walk around and explore; there are so many neat little cottages and lake homes to see. We genuinely can’t stop reminiscing about the memories we made and dreaming of our return trip back to this awesome property in Arnold’s Park!

This house is close to the boat ramp, and there were docks in a short walk to load and unload people, which was nice. It was also super close to Arnolds Park and the attractions around that. The house was nice for 2 families as it had separate living space upstairs and downstairs.
