Beautiful B and B in a great setting, out and away from the touristy part of Okoboji. Good service with lots of amenities. Not on the water, but nice, peaceful and quiet. Breakfast was unique, but with no real choices.

From the moment we walked in, the Oakwood Inn was so inviting! Doug & Mari (Innsitters) could not have been more kind. Their cookies, coffee and breakfasts were delicious! Enjoyed sitting in rockers on front porch in the mornings and reading in the backyard. The Inn always had a pleasant smell, and loved the sheets so much I have to order. Our room was spacious and appreciated the bathroom amenities. Thank you.

This was the most restful overnight stay ever! Drove up from the Des Moines area to hear my Sons band so we were road weary when we arrived. We had time to rest, freshen up and make the show. After the concert we all had a great time in the den. Sleep came effortlessly. We awoke to a fab breakfast. Check out was easy and without rush. We would repeat this stay if we got the chance *****
