Adequate

Property had damage when we arrived. Broken kind on hand rail going upstairs. Bedroom lift door was hard to close (needs to be cut shorter so it does not rub on carpet). Found a 9mm unspent bullet in grandkids room.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Great location, poor cleaning and overall home issues

Cleanliness was not up to par, foundation of the home appears to be shifting which resulted in the basement doors not closing, basement bathroom nearly flooded, leftover garbage remained from previous guests. The location was great and near downtown bars!

Summer stay

We had a party of 14 and absolutely loved our stay. The house was stocked with so many items! Coffee, hair products, pots and pans, etc. etc. which made our stay less stressful. We cooked a lot at the home at restaurants in Okoboji tend to have a long wait and food isn’t the best. The location is so close to everything. Walking and driving. We loved all the nooks and outdoor area to have coffee or read. We can’t wait to book another stay at this house! Thank you!
