Nice room
Room was clean and comfortable. Chair and ottoman were worn, but it didn't bother me. Phone flash didn't shut off, so I had to unplug it. I slept very well. The room was nice and quiet.

Absolutely terrible furniture made for a bad room
l would like to show you the picture I took of the couch that was in my room. It was totally disgusting (peeling fake leather everywhere). I cannot believe any hotel would put a person in a room with such terrible furniture. I would not sit on it. I should get a refund on this crappy room.

Not bad, but not great.
This place is...okay. Like many Okoboji hotel options, this property is in serious need of updating. It looks stuck in the 80s. The rooms are clean, but a lot of the exterior could use a vigorous scrubbing. Spider webs around the outside doors and windows, and "patio" furniture (molded plastic chairs) that you wouldn't want to sit on without a towel. The free breakfast was disappointing, not in terms of selection (standard waffle/cereal/egg/sausage selection), but that they don't staff the room to replenish supplies or even run a towel around the counters once in a while. If you get there in the second hour, you may find much of the food gone, no plates, and the place looking a mess. I saw people rooting through cupboards looking for napkins. And all of the plates etc. are styrofoam, which is terrible for the environment, and ironic given its proximity to a natural attraction. A meaningful investment in a facelift and regular upkeep would make this place a winner. It's a good location for getting to all of the lakes.

The room desperately needs cleaned better. We dropped a phone and had to go under the bed and it was FILTHY there was pretzels, a plastic bag, earrings and just dirt and dust. Unacceptable. The rest of the property was fine and the front desk help was wonderful. I didn't complain to them as we were only there one night and were just ready to leave after getting cleaned up in the morning rather than stop and deal wirh that.

Definitely not a handicap accessible facility. Sidewalks leading to entrances were all uphill, and doors were not automatic open. Very narrow doorways. Next to impossible to navigate with wheelchair.
