Escape to the ultimate family retreat on the highly desirable southwest side of West Lake Okoboji! Tucked away in the quiet, scenic Terrace Park neighborhood of Browns Bay, this classic 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath lake cottage delivers the perfect blend of nostalgic midcentury lakehouse charm and modern comfort.
The best part? You are a flat, effortless 1.5 block stroll to the soft sands of Terrace Park Beach - one of Okoboji's finest beaches. Picnic at the beach during the BEAUTIFUL autumn days! Take long, peaceful walks. Skip the premium waterfront prices and high-traffic noise while keeping the sand, waves and sunsets just steps from your front door. Enjoy the cool nights of "good sleeping weather!"

The Space & Sleeping Arrangements:

Designed with multi-generational families and close groups of friends in mind, our cottage offers plenty of space to gather, eat and relax after a sun-drenched day on the lake. Bedroom 1 holds a queen-sized bed on the main level. Named for the original occupants, the other three bedrooms are found up a quick flight of stairs with a queen in the first, a twin in the second and a full in the third.
Please note that the cottage features 1 pristine full bathroom with a shower stall for washing off the lake day, plus a convenient half-bath upstairs to keep morning routines smooth for the family.

The Location

You are perfectly positioned on the quieter, family-friendly side of the lake, but never far away from the action. Walk down to the beach for a lovely picnic. Fish from shore or public piers, or launch your own boat at designated Okoboji locations. Stroll the quiet streets or take a short drive over to Arnolds Park, with its museum of Lake Okoboji history, Visit the Pearson Lakes Art Center, ride the bike trails, savor local restaurants (a classy microbrewery, West O's, is only one mile away!) and live music venues when you want to dive into the local Okoboji energy. The INCREDIBLE Okoboji Classic Car Museum is 1/2 mile away... a short walk!
