"We wanted to offer a place where people could come and relax, rest and restore - and also to have fun enjoying the amenities of the Lakes area... We want others to come and enjoy the lakes like we do." Joe grew up camping in Okoboji and couldn't get moved to the area fast enough. He studied business administration at Iowa Lakes in Estherville and has been building homes for 30 years in the Okoboji region. Karen grew up in Minnesota and visited the Lakes area as a kid with her family. She is retired after 27 years selling real estate. Joe and Karen met 30 years ago and made their home in the Spirit Lake area. They have 2 children and look forward to spending their retirement years doing God's work and sharing their love of the Lakes with others through this business. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Service animals only (pets not allowed) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/23000000/22160000/22156000/22155959/3644d544.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautiful, Bridges Bay Cabin #122 ARNOLDS PARK - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washing machine 10 Exceptional 45 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-20&endDate=2026-02-21&selected=22155959&PinnedHotelID=22155959&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/84000000/83030000/83020400/83020340/59ae6eb8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Fun Exterior Updates Coming!
