Premium location at the corner of Hwy 9 and Hwy 86. The traffic, especially among long haulers continues to increase at this junction. Tons of traffic from the west on Hwy 9 along with high traffic coming south off of I-90. Lot of opportunity...
Brooks Golf Club is one of the premier golf courses in the Iowa Great Lakes. Located in Okoboji, Iowa, Brooks is one of the few 27 hole golf courses in Iowa. I've personally been a member here for a number of years, and can tell you that not other course offers the beauty and upkeep that Brooks provides. The numerous flower beds, Caribbean beach like bunkers, bent grass fairways, natural prairie grass, and rolling hills provide for an aesthetic pleasure as you play all 27 holes. Brooks also has one of the nicest practice facilities in the state as well. Come say hi to John, Bret and their teams of professionals. if you are an avid golfer and in Boji, you won't want to miss these links.

Years ago, Brooks Golf Course clubhouse was actually housed on the rear side of Arrowood, but since then, the course has been converted to 27 holes with a a new separate clubhouse. Also, the Racquet Club was a part of the facility, offering workout facilities, racquet ball, and tennis. However, with the addition of the YMCA, the racquet club was unsustainable and converted into retail.

"The Tressle" bridge used to carry the old railroad that traversed the area. Now the tressle is home to some of the areas best fishing. Served as a hot spot for fisherman, and a trail for walkers and bikers, the tressle is a classic structure of the Okobojis. We spent days jumping off of the tressle doing cannonballs, preachers, flips and the like. I know in my life my friends and I have caught literally tens of thousands of crappie and blue gill off the tressle bridge.

Terrace Park is located in Brown's Bay on West Lake, Okoboji. It is one of the largest public beaches on West Lake and has entertained beach goers for many years. Next to Terrace Park is Boys Town out of Omaha, Nebraska. I remember as a kid spending entire days at terrace park, either riding bicycle or taking a moped (yes a moped) down to meet with friends and playing king on the dock. In 2010, the morning after "the storm", Terrace Park was carnage. Boat were stacked on top of each other. Trees were uprooted, and hoists were tossed around. Boats and other water craft were found in Terrace Park that belonged to owners on the North end of West Lake.
Referred to locally as the lake turning over the thermocline is a feature of lakes with deep water. The water on the top of the lake changes temperature much more variably during the year. On West Lake, it can reach as much as 75 degrees in July while the water below, greater than 35 or 40 feet deep is relatively stable around 45 degrees. In the fall and early winter, the top strata of the lake will cool to below 45 degrees, and then because it becomes denser, it will "sink" below the lower strata, thus, displacing it and making the lake "turn-over". In the deepest part of West Lake (near the 136ft mark), no light is availble, and hence little life is known whether fish or plant. Typically questions are raised as to why the surface water gets dirty for a short period of time in the fall, this this is the standard answer.
The Family Diner is Spirit Lake, IA is a local favorite! They offer up a large portion for small money, but whether you come early or late you may be in for a wait. With homemade bread and the largest sausage patty you have seen, The Family Diner is consistently delicious. They are open only for breakfast and lunch and closed two days a week. In my former career at Stylecraft, the family diner was definately a favorite when our friends would visit from North Carolina. They were always inpressed with the bread and rolls and corn beef hash.
Omaha Beach is on the north end of Echo Bay, extending out into Omaha Point. Known for its secluded private access from Lakeshore Drive, Omaha Beach properties are some of the most sought after on West Lake, easily fetching over $15000 per linear foot of lakeshore.

Aaron was very patient with us as we looked at lakeside property in the East Okoboji Lake area and then changed our minds to find something off the lake. Always prompt in responding to our requests to view properties. He helped us through a roof matter on the house we ended up purchasing. We felt the process went very well from beginning to end
Great representation when purchasing a home especially for first time home buyers. Also, had first hand knowledge of the area which assisted in the initial offer price which gave us piece of mind knowing we wouldn't be over assessed value.
Aaron Jones (RE/MAX of Okoboji) did an exemplary job of marketing, and promotion. From start to finish he was very responsive, kind, and a constant professional. I look forward to the opportunity to work with Aaron and the RE/MAX Team again.
We had a smooth transaction with Aaron and his crew. We were dealing with a relocation company on the sellers end that caused some issues but everything worked out quickly. Would recommend Aaron as your realtor.
Aaron was honest and professional. Didn't spend a lot of time looking at places we weren't interested in. Also had to deal with a relocation company on the sellers end which complicated things, but he got the job done.
"Karen and I have worked with Aaron on one other occasion and from the first meeting each time he understood our plans and needs. Aaron gives good, timely information and advice without any hard sell or pressure and just allows the buying and selling process to happen. I would highly recommend Aaron and his team at RE/MAX to sell your home or to assist you in finding a new home."
Working with Aaron on this particular real estate transaction was very satisfying. His knowledge and professionalism made the entire process seamless. All deadlines were met and he set me up with an outstanding financial institution that made the financing process quick and easy. He is a well connected agent whose vast network virtually guarantees a pleasant and satisfying experience. I would definitely recommend him to others and certainly use him again for future transactions.
My children and I very much appreciated all you, Beth, and the rest of the office girls did to sell our lake property. It's not an easy decision to make to sell a lake home but it had to be done. We had a deadline and you helped us make it. You kept in contact and let us know when you would be showing the house so that we were aware of what was going on. We all Thank you.
