Pros:

Breakfast was basic but very well organized and timed to every guest's schedule.
Very quiet and far enough off the main traffic to be restful and relaxed

Overall good. Price was high but busy weekend in Lake Okoboji.
Pros:

Clean and nice rooms. Staff was great. Very nice and attentive.

Cons:

Trash out side and people smoking which didn't really bother me just no ashtrays outside. On thing the side door didn't lock so anyone could go in and out as they pleased.

If you are heathy and want an affordable place to stay, this would meet your requirements.
Pros:

Wonderful, helpful owners.

Cons:

For a handicapped room, the bed was too high for me to get in without my husband helping me. They were short staffed so we had to ask for items like coffee, shampoo, towels, Kleenex to be replenished (we had a three night stay).

Awful
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

They are charging us $50 for supposed bloodstains on towels that I know for a fact weren’t made by us. Spoke with Joe and all he wanted to do was argue with me and not listen to reason and blame us. The towels were already “yellowed” when we got there.

Pros:

Good location.

Cons:

Place was freezing cold, had odor like mold or stale cigarette smoke. No hot tub, even though website said had one. Was cheap but realized why we were 1 of only 2 rooms booked.
