Throwback hotel and not in a good way
This hotel is one of the worst in which I have stayed in a long time. The entire facility is extremely run down and dirty. The room furniture is dorm-room quality/condition, and the bed featured a thin mattress and plastic covering and a bedspread that is straight out of the 80s. The restaurant was closed (in a tourist town on a holiday weekend), and several public bathrooms were out of order, as were half of the games in the "arcade". I would not have sat in that hot tub on a dare. WiFi is only available in the lobby, not in the rooms, which don't feature any appliances like a refrigerator or a microwave, despite being nowhere near anyplace to buy food. The only bit of updating was a small flat screen tv. Frankly, I was a little surprised it came with cable stations. The "beach" is small and quickly crowded. The water's edge is maybe forty yards in width. In four days I didn't see any sign of a housekeeping staff anywhere. There were a lot of threats of additional charges for leaving the room in "excessive disarray," but I saw candy wrappers up on top of hallway lights that had been there long enough to support cobwebs. If I had gotten this room at a serious bargain, I could have perhaps looked past the shabby condition and hall monitor atmosphere, but I paid the more per night ($220 on average) than I would have at a chain hotel that would have provided 21st century accommodations. Unless you are desperate and this is the only option, do not waste your money.

Room was dirty
The room was dirty. Cheese popcorn on the floor next to the bed. A used washcloth on the floor in the bathroom in between the tub & the toilet. Black marks on the sheets (like from a suitcase)? The restaurant/bar was closed until further notice. However, the staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful.

The A/C in our room kept shutting off. The pillows on our beds were pretty flat. Indoor pool wasn't too bad. The hot tub had peeling paint. Entire resort is kind of run down.

Time to Update! Horrible Accommodations!
The gentleman who checked us in was great! Super friendly! Unfortunately, that was the only good thing about our stay. We stayed in the hotel portion by the tennis courts. The landscaping was so overgrown that it covered the sidewalk and we had to walk onto the grass to get to the door. The room was not clean. We found a used Arnold's Park wristband, an earring and a child's toy on the floor between the 2 beds. Your website says there are 2 restaurants on site. Both were closed. We took our granddaughter to the arcade. There were 2 change machines and neither worked. Went back to front desk for quarters and then ended up losing half of them in games that took the money, but didn't work. This place needs some SERIOUS TLC! If I owned a timeshare at this place, I would not be happy! I was there 15 years ago and thought it needed work then. Was hoping it had gotten better. NOPE! Will not return or recomend!!

Good enough for a couple dudes.
Good enough to sleep at. Beds were very tired, decor is from 1992...but again, its a decent place to lay your head down for a few hours.

As season is winding down, resort was quiet which was nice. Great location for exploring West Okoboji, Arnolds Park, Milford and Spirit Lake.
