Very nice!
Cozy and charming. Perfect for an overnight stay :)
Christopher, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed how large the whole property was. There was a lot to do and it wasn't overcrowded. Only bad thing is, there are courts and other activity area's available, but they don't have rackets, clubs etc to check out.

Just good people

There is no internet. The water was so bad tasting, I only sipped it for brushing my teeth.
Charles, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Okoboji had record rains this spring, and that caused some flooding into the vestibule for our hotel building. The smell was awful, and we had to hold our breath going in and out of the building. Apart from that, the rest of the stay was fine.
Colin, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I liked the arcade and pool and hot tub
Nancy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

As season is winding down, resort was quiet which was nice. Great location for exploring West Okoboji, Arnolds Park, Milford and Spirit Lake.
Bradford, 2-night trip

Look somewhere else...
Pretty gross. No way that there have been any updates to this place since they won an award in 1997. Was staying with the rest of our team and it was probably our last.

So quiet and peaceful. Right next to the trails. Perfect place for cycling weekend.

Property had a lot of extras to use like the beach tennis court pool mini golf rooms were OK
Kenneth, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Room was dirty over all carpet/restroom shower horrible smelled bad not to mention spider webs and the beds were very worn out every time you mover you could fell the springs in the bed never again I did mention to the front desk about my stay This person said I knows about the situation I hear it all to much it's because we have cleaning services that clean for use and their is nothing we can do this was horrible what a waste of my money even the pool area was filthy. I never in my life stayed in a place as dirty as this and believe me I will share this with the pictures that I took in side and out.

Clean but stale cigarette smell.
If you loved the 80’s you will love the decore. It is clean, I checked for bugs and none were found. I can get passed the dated decore but the smell of old stale cigarette smoke bothered my allergies horribly. My bathroom vent fan also didn’t have a function light so I did my hair and makeup by sink light for the wedding I was attending. Also no wifi in my room to finish up and check in work stuff. Overall very clean and quiet but the smell was too much for my allergies, it was also a no smoking room. The main lobby had the same smell.
Erin, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Good enough for a couple dudes.
Good enough to sleep at. Beds were very tired, decor is from 1992...but again, its a decent place to lay your head down for a few hours.
2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Discussing hotel, everything dirty, spider’s web you can see it inside the hotel around windows, the room bedding I don’t think they changed it after checkout because you can smell it, no even glasses to drink a water or cups for coffee, the only thing you can find in the bathroom bar of soap, the customer service at the time of the checking in was rude. Need lots of updates
Ranya, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great place for young kids! They were short staffed, so we did not get daily room cleaning, but they accommodated when requested. Would book again.
Lindsey, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

The A/C would not stay on. The pillows were flat. We went out and bought our own. The shower had a lot of hair in it.

Paper thin walls, very noisy, beds are hard as a rock, very outdated and needs more upkeep. Not worth the $100 dollars a night.The staff for the most part were nice.

Property has potential but needs to be upgraded.

Beds were really hard, not to confortable. Room was not stocked with towels and could be cleaner. Staff was so polite and helpful.
Julie, 1-night trip

The A/C in our room kept shutting off. The pillows on our beds were pretty flat. Indoor pool wasn't too bad. The hot tub had peeling paint. Entire resort is kind of run down.

Filthy rooms, friendly staff
The staff was friendly, but the room was FILTHY. Food, wrappers, empty beverage containers... sticky surfaces clearly not cleaned, the bathroom sink wasn't cleaned and neither was the bathroom floor!! It sounds like I am exaggerating, but I am NOT! I've never seen anything like this before. Also, the hotel property is in a state of disrepair. It looks half-abandoned.
Left on the floor of hotel room.
Also on the floor of hotel room.

Beds were very uncomfortable, carpet had hair pins under the table and crumbs around the bed, never saw any staff after checking in, no cups for coffee. Would have changed location but there was nothing else available!
