About this house rental
This beautiful remodeled West Okoboji home is perfect for a family vacation or just a fun weekend getaway! You can enjoy views of beautiful West Lake Okoboji from every room of the house or enjoy them on the very large patio and deck! The house is located on Smiths bay of West Lake Okoboji and offers amazing sunset and sunrise views!! You are only steps away from the famous Arnolds Park Amusement park, the Central Emporium and all of the shopping and restaurant's the lakes area has to offer. From your private patio and deck you can watch the fireworks shooting over the lake or sip on a cocktail as the boaters, skiers and water boarders go by. Outside, you have a private dock and stairs that lead into a private swimming area. Sit in the sun, fish, or just hang out on the dock! This home was built with family in mind and can sleep up to 20-23 comfortably. The house is great for family vacations, reunions, or events!
The upstairs of the house has great lake views and 6 newly remodeled bedrooms and a brand new bathroom with dual vanity sinks! The living room or finished basement are perfect for games, movies or a round of cards. The main floor has a brand new kitchen with all new stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and stainless steal sink. The kitchen has a large center island for the family to gather around and the kitchen and dining room are an open concept layout. So the cook can view the lake and not have to worry about missing out on the fun and entertainment while they cook! There is also a fully furnished and finished basement with a bonus room and tv/game room for the kids!
The front yard also has a fire pit to sit around and tell stories or enjoy some smores! The property also has a gas grill for cookouts.
Also we recently added a water slide at the end of the dock for your enjoyment.
Nearby boat ramp for putting your boat in and out of the water or marina for boat rentals, jet skis or sailboats. Restaurants, amusement park, water park and public beaches are all close by.
This property is not on the canal or harbor but located directly on west okoboji.
**Note** The dock is usually put in the end of May and taken out mid October. If renting be aware of these dates if having a dock is important.

Great location. House works well for a large family. Boat dock raised for flood made it a challenge to get in boat, but we made it work.

There was plenty of bedrooms for every one! The kitchen/living area was beautiful! Great view of the water and walking distance to night life. Only down fall is that the property only has 2 bathrooms. We would definitely stay again!

I can see why this rental is booked solid during the summer months. Plenty of room for everyone and great location. We rented this for Christmas since we had extra family this year. Open area for us all to be together and everyone had their private rooms too. The lake wasn't frozen so the kids could watch the ducks. Would love to stay here during the summer to take advantage of the location and fun things to do. But it worked well for our family's Christmas too. Highly recommend.

We always love staying at this home. It's the perfect location to walk to fun activities. And it holds our entire family very well, usually with room to spare. Unfortunately with it being perfect for larger families, it gets booked quickly and far out. I do wish it would be offered to past guests first, but I understand why it is not. It's in high demand, and for good reason :)

Our west Okiboji home was wonderful and was beyond our expectations! The home and yard are well maintained and clean. Lots of room and beautiful kitchen to prepare meals. Everyone had a great time. Only problem is no one wanted to leave!
Thank you Shawn!

We had a great time. Close to everything, and a great house for relaxing or entertaining. Decks and chairs on multi levels always gave you the option for sun or shade. Thank you

It had been forever since we had truly taken a "family vacation" and with our young adults getting ready to fly the nest, we were really looking forward to this one. We had simply the best time! The property was as presented and our host was wonderful! Would definitely do this one again!

Good stay nice property. Kitchen & bath very well appointed. Bedrooms could use updating upstairs. I stayed in the 1st bedroom on the right & bed very lumpy & uncomfortable, my back still hurts. I’ve stayed in at least 7 VRBO & have never been asked to strip beds & wash towels.

Beautiful location and easy access to this property with an accessible and friendly host! Large gathering area with fully stocked kitchen and long center Island made a functional and very accommodating family area. Bedrooms and basement sleeping area were adequate. Only 2 bathrooms are challenging for a large group. House is surprisingly quiet between floors which made sleeping easy! We had a wonderful weekend and made a lot of priceless memories !

Wonderful house with 7 bedrooms. One bedroom has three bunk beds. Main part of the house has been updated and is awesome. Outstanding kitchen with everything you need. The two bathrooms are very nice and newly remodeled. The bedrooms are basic older cabin bedrooms but we didn’t spend any time in them except to sleep. Every room had its own air conditioning unit. . We worried a little about the dock being pretty old and springy but our family loved the fun water slide and fishing from the dock. We rented a boat one day and we were very thankful for the ability to dock it at the cabin. There is a large backyard with a big fire pit and a hammock. There are steep steps going down to the dock but there is a gate at the top for safety and lights. The location is amazing. We would love to go back and spend more time at the Okoboji house. We created wonderful memories there.
