Beautiful condo and view. My family was very comfortable here and we were sad to check out. Everything we needed was provided just as listed. The dishwasher needs some TLC as it is extremely moldy. We hand washed our dishes. This did not affect our enjoyment of the condo or the area. Our kids suggested we make an annual visit to Okoboji!

Before arriving I received instructions on entering building and condo. 1st email arrived a month before our arrival and the 2nd email with instructions arrived a few days before our arrival. The email that arrived a few days before travel had all the wrong codes for entering. Good thing I kept the old email or I would have been lock out. The cleaning crew was lax on cleaning as shower had mold, shelves were dusty, vents are covered in dust and dishes were put away in cabinets dirty. The deck has major trip hazard as boards are not flush and it slopes forward so feels like it’s going to collapse. Had 1 broken window and Internet is very slow and TV stops working to buffer often. This was our 3rd visit to this resort and by far this was the dirtiest condo we have stayed in.

This property was great for a weekend getaway. The view of the lake was beautiful and the property had all the amenities we needed. The only negative was the wi-fi which would quit in the middle of movies. We were there only for a short weekend so was not a major issue but if we had been planning a longer stay it would have had to be fixed.

We had a great stay, condo was the perfect layout. Only problem we had is the internet was too weak that nothing could work being connected including the TV. Would stay here agian.

Our condo was very nice and our view of the lake was fantastic. Just a heads up the primary bedroom and secondary bedroom had standard size beds also some paper products were not supplied like extra garbage bags.

While we loved the location and the view, there where several areas that need improved with the property. We were nervous to let our children go on the deck as the railing is unsafe, the floor is uneven and there are screws sticking out of the floor. Upon arrive we noticed a large crack with sharp edges in one of the windows that over looks the deck. And the place appears to need a deep clean. Mold in dish washer and toys and other trash found in living room on the floor.

We had the best sleep. Just wish each room had a stand alone fan to use. We will definitely be back.

I was so excited about this vacation and the view is breathtaking! We had a fabulous time, however there were issues! The deck is very unstable looking although we were told it is safe. The windows really dirty, spider webs etc. we’re everywhere. The dishwasher didn’t work, even though they called someone in to look at it. He said nothing was wrong but it doesn’t wash the dishes. The under ground garage, the spectacular view and the cozy living room couch made the negatives turn into a positive. With a few fixes I would rent this place every summer.
4.0
Overall it was a very nice experience. The condo was a little dirty. The view of the lake was beautiful, but the patio area seemed to be dipping down a bit, just wanted to note that.

We enjoyed our stay at Sun Rays & Lake Days.
The space was nice and it was well appointed.
However we were disappointed that there were no curtains or blinds on the master bedroom door that connects to the deck. It was very awkward sleeping! Also, the unit has great views of the lake, but the outside windows were filled with cobwebs. After I day of looking at them, I went out and swept them off so we could enjoy the view. Just a couple things that would have made our stay better.
5.0
The unit was clean and fairly well equipped. Awesome view of the lake. We were told there was a keurig, but there wasn’t, but overall it was a wonderful place to stay.
5.0
Our family loved our stay here. The view is incredible and we spent a lot of mornings and evenings enjoying it from the deck. The deck has some sturdiness issues but I never felt unsafe and I would rent this place again in a minute!!!!! Thanks for a super enjoyable week!

View is Stunning/Great Location
On the positive side, the view is stunning. I could sit there all day and watch the boats go by. The cleanliness was okay. There was a bag of trash left in one bathroom. A vent up high was quite dusty and dead flies on the floors in living area. The amenities are great. Wish the docks were bigger so you could fish on without being in the way. The biggest concern is the deck. We didn’t go on it as their were concerns with railings and we have a five year old. There was some unevenness in flooring which is something I would want fixed to return. Looking around the other units, there are some inconsistencies with decks like things have been replaced or need replaced. If deck was fixed, we would definitively stay again. Also, the location to Arnold’s Park was fantastic! The biggest unexpected surprise was a short fireworks show we could see out the West. That was great!

Beautiful location!
Came back home to Okoboji for a large family reunion. We had 3 adults and 3 kids in our condo. There was plenty of space and the views were worth the stay alone. The condo is also in very close proximity to Arnold's Park and lots of great restaurants. We appreciated having free tickets to the waterpark and a garage parking spot - especially when it got super busy closer to July 4th and there were no close parking spots.
Our biggest complaint was that there was obviously a major structural issue with the deck and other decks in the condo building. Our unit had multiple signs warning not to lean on the railing which seemed reasonable. But we quickly noticed an extreme slant to the deck and a very dangerous tripping hazard where part of the deck had sagged so badly and created a lip in the flooring that stuck up. Someone could seriously lose a toe in that spot if tripped over. We decided to still use the deck but truly questioned the safety.
We saw a letter posted on one of the other condo unit's doors explaining to renters that there was an investigation being done about the deck issues but results weren't given other than that using the decks wasn't recommended.
Overall this issue didn't affect our stay too much but I would have appreciated being made aware of it prior.
Another minor issue was that there were no replacement trash bags in the kitchen so we had to purchase some.
Overall we would absolutely come back again - there is no place like Okoboji and this rental was a fantastic place to stay!

Good but could use some improvement
The view at this property is really the star of the show, otherwise I would give this property 3.5 stars. The TV doesn’t have cable or any streaming apps, simply an antenna and DVD player. Our internet service was hit or miss too; we kept having to unplug it and plug it back in. The bedroom curtains were incredibly thin and there were no blinds anywhere in the kitchen/family room, which felt a bit strange at night. Also, the master bed is right in front of the porch door which also has no curtains so it was a very bright room early in the morning. The unit was clean on the service but also felt like it needed a deep clean but maybe I’m just being overly picky. Location was great and the unit was plenty big (would have loved a king bed in the master bedroom). Covered deck as also fabulous!

Very Nice home...
Very nice home, the only thing we did not realize was no cable, so we could not get any tv stations. You need to use apps to access tv with internet. For us we only had one app, but we were only there in the evening so it was fine.

Condo 308 for Winter Games
Beautiful condo. Enjoyed the view! Clean and great communication/check in and out. Everything we needed and more. Would love to stay there again!

Fantastic! Gorgeous space, well stocked supplies and great location!
Loved it! We went off-season (early Oct) and it still had many amenities available and the on-site restaurant / bar was wonderful service and food was delicious! I even bought 2 jars of their house seasoning! We brought our bikes and could easily connect to trails right from there. Lake view and deck setting is awesome, even in the cooler nights! Location to Arnold’s park and Main Street activities is so easy. Bridget was wonderful host and we highly recommend. Planning to come back for a winter snowmobiling trip!! 💕.
