The Oakwood Inn is first rate in every way--perfect location, beautiful inn (we had the entire third floor), amazing grounds, delicious food, and gracious hospitality. We would highly recommend a stay with Bridget and Bill. Plus, they are pet friendly for a small fee.

The Oakwood Inn is a very nice place to stay! Clean rooms, wonderful staff, warm and cozy, and excellent breakfast. I really liked the family room in the basement where you can gather with friends or family and visit. I like how tea and coffee were always available. It felt like being in your own home. It's easy to get to and has a nice backyard/nature setting. The only thing I didn't care for was the music that played in the dining room most of the day that I could hear in my room that was over the dining room. I would definitely stay there again but I will reserve a room further away from the dining room. Otherwise, a very nice place!!

From the moment we walked in, the Oakwood Inn was so inviting! Doug & Mari (Innsitters) could not have been more kind. Their cookies, coffee and breakfasts were delicious! Enjoyed sitting in rockers on front porch in the mornings and reading in the backyard. The Inn always had a pleasant smell, and loved the sheets so much I have to order. Our room was spacious and appreciated the bathroom amenities. Thank you.

This place is amazing and Bill and Bridget are wonderful. Bridget's breakfast is so good. Her food is amazing. She accommodated are vegetarian lifestyle and it wasn't boring food. Rooms large, everything you need is there. The robes are cozy. Grounds beautiful. I would recommend to anyone. It is adult only so great for a couples getaway or anniversary. So much more than a hotel. So peaceful. Thank you to our host and hostess for making it unforgettable.

This was the most restful overnight stay ever! Drove up from the Des Moines area to hear my Sons band so we were road weary when we arrived. We had time to rest, freshen up and make the show. After the concert we all had a great time in the den. Sleep came effortlessly. We awoke to a fab breakfast. Check out was easy and without rush. We would repeat this stay if we got the chance *****

Amazing stay!

I travel ALOT for work, and rarely have time to leave reviews for each place, but this one is a MUST. Beautiful, super clean and well-appointed rooms, idyllic setting, staff (Sue) was wonderful, and the breakfast was delicious - I highly recommend the owner's egg bake recipe. I was even greeted by the local deer population at the front entrance upon arrival. It was a welcome change from generic hotel rooms. My room had a working fireplace and hot tub, which was a much appreciated in Iowa winter after a 6 hour drive. I can't wait to be back in this area for another stay. May need to bring the hubby for a nice romantic weekend getaway this summer, and explore the beautiful grounds!

Nice room with a whirlpool (that we didn't use) adjoining a nice terrace (that we didn't use because it was so hot outside). Option for a couple of different breakfast times in the little dining room (7 or 8:30) or you could get breakfast delivered at 8am. It was homemade biscuits and an egg bake, which was tasty. If we return to the Okoboji area again some day, we would certainly consider returning.
