Make the Most of Your Okoboji Stay

Cultural heritage and blue water

Okoboji centers on West Lake Okoboji, one of only 3 blue water lakes in the world, carved by glaciers 14,000 years ago. The Pearson Lakes Art Center brings unexpected cultural depth, housing Russian Impressionist paintings alongside 6 galleries and an outdoor sculpture trail. History surfaces at the Abbie Gardner Sharp Cabin, the original 1856 log structure, and at Arnolds Park Amusement Park, where The Legend wooden roller coaster has thrilled visitors since 1930.

Lakeside dining and summer energy

Prime Boji serves USDA Prime beef with lake views, while The Okoboji Store has anchored waterfront social life since 1884, offering boat-up access that makes it the region's quintessential gathering spot. Summer brings nightly live music, and the fictional University of Okoboji drives marathons, triathlons, and winter games that give this resort community its distinctive character.

Gateway access and regional exploration

Most travelers fly into Sioux Falls Regional Airport, 81 miles away. Day trips reach the Grotto of the Redemption and Le Mars, the Ice Cream Capital of the World. The central location between East and West Lake Okoboji puts you near Brooks Golf Club and full-service resorts for both leisure and business retreats.
