Overnight stay.

Stayed for one night. Grest access to lake. Staff very friendly and professional. Most of the resort needs some TLC. Kinda pricey for the room, but understand its the price to pay for access to the lake.

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.

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.

The hotel rooms are shockingly dated, not clean and give the feel of an institution. While we understand it was a holiday, the nightly rate was outlandish for the quality. It’s inexcusable there seemingly haven’t been any updates to the hotel in decades.

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.

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.
