You'll find a kayak on site at this pet-friendly cottage. West Okoboji Lake is an easy 7-minute walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make short work of the 3-minute drive to Emerson Bay State Recreation Area.

After you return, you can unwind on the patio or sip a drink by the firepit. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and TV.

A BBQ grill, a fireplace, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan are featured at this 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as an ice maker, a microwave, and cookware. And you can even travel light because you'll have a dryer.
