Classic Motor Motel, but updated. Overall okay stay, but rooms are small and overpriced. No storage or drawers, so we had to live out of our suitcases. Evening Bar with live music was fun. Very pleasant staff, and hardworking.

I like supporting "local" when I can. This place is way different than corporate chain-style lodging venues. It has character. Friendly hosts and a nice facility with a "vintage" feel - hey, after all it's part of their name! Although my room was on the small side, it had everything I needed and nothing I didn't - it was clean, nicely decorated in a rustic style that was just plain comfy. In an area like Okoboji, who spends a lot of time in a motel room anyway? It's centrally located to just about any place you'd want to visit in the lakes area. Bike rentals on-site and a bar and grill next door with outdoor seating and live music Friday and Saturday nights during the summer. No complaints here! First time there but I'd absolutely stay again.
Comfy bed!
In room fridge, microwave, coffeemaker
Walking distance from the motel!

It was a trip back to the 1960s. It is a small Motel from the 1960s. The rooms are small by today’s standards but have been upgraded. Not fancy but clean. The pool is clean. There are games for the kids. Fire rings to use with firewood provided. Grills to cook out if you want. Rental bicycles on site and a block from the lake

Cute little “motel” with so much character and charm! Customer service was top notch! Had an issue with some food, not only did they take care of it, they asked our opinion on what they could do to make it better! Breakfast is a little lacking. Pool was too cold to use but the outside areas are lovely! Fire pits, cornhole games and lots of seating! Definitely would recommend to others!

Apparently our stay was a little too early in the season so they are not not offering breakfast. We also found a glob of hair on the shower wall. Otherwise wise the staff was nice & offered great local options & the room seemed clean otherwise.
