I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for the lake experience. There are lake in views in the front and back of this cabin. The host was very responsive and accommodating. I had to extend my stay due to a death in the family and they were very kind and thankfully able to accommodate my request.

Wonderful family vacay!

The location of this property was absolutely perfect! Quiet and peaceful right on the lake but quick drive to pretty much anywhere we wanted to go. Fishing off the deck was so much fun for the kiddos. The cabin was perfect for our family of 4. Well stocked with little essentials was hugely appreciated! Definitely will stay again!!

Labor Day Get-away

We had a get-away weekend and truly enjoyed this cute cabin! The property is in a great location, well decorated and clean. All the kitchen and bathroom items you need are stocked. We were between lakes on an isthmus, so had sunrise and sunset viewing. It was a hot weekend, but the lake breezes kept things beautiful, and the air conditioning had no problem with 95+ temps. We would definitely love to come back sometime soon.

The cottage is adorable & the lake views are so pretty. It’s definitely very small, but we knew that & we appreciated that the small space allowed for a great value. Our family of four had a great weekend enjoying Okaboji for the first time & the cabin provided a great home base for our adventures. It is well stocked with all of the basics and was very clean. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!

Interior of property was very nice. Have done the best with what there is to work with. Very small but decorated very nicely, nice for what the cabin house can handle. The exterior was a mess. I cleaned the lawn chairs out front with a broom, packed with spiders and dirt. On the deck I walked out into spider webs. I cleaned the deck with a broom, the table, chairs and each spindle on the railing. The kayak was dirty and unuseable which was a bummer. The rear of the house was over run with weeds and the waterline was not kept up. The tree was over grown and unkept. There were a couple small grills but again all were nasty and would not cook my food on them.

Disappointing

The listing was misleading as the bikes were not maintained and had flat tires, seat had numerous holes in them. Kayak was full of dirty water and not well maintained. A/C unit was not working well upon looking at outside A/C unit was covered in cotton causing it not to work properly! Again not well maintained. There was weeds all over the back side of house and growing through the deck make getting to the water not desirable. Just very disappointing in what was listed and what you truly got??

Relaxing Vacation

We really enjoyed the proximity to the lake. Great views of Little Spirit Lake and Big Spirit Lake. The weather was rainy and overcast so it made for a relaxing time in the cabin. And it is a cozy cabin. We had a great time.
