My husband and I have known Will for over 6 years and he has driven many miles to show us dozens of homes. He is an outstanding professional, yet very down-to-earth and relatable. Will's knowledge of the Iowa Great Lakes area is in his genes-- It's like he knows every inch.He is responsive, intuitive, and wise. You will be blessed if Will is your realtor. He is the best.

Aaron has a great approach and blended patience with persistence to deliver for us as his client! He spent the necessary time to get to know what was important to us and then showed us several properties to confirm what we described and pointed out the trade-off's of different attributes. We would definitely use his expertise again.

When we started looking for a location to start our business, Aaron was very helpful and easy to work with. His schedule was flexible to meet our needs. The entire process was simple and he took care of us all the way through the purchase and even after when we ran into a couple issues with the A/C and garage doors. We would definitely work with Aaron again in the future!

Shout out to Aaron Jones for patiently helping us search for and find a home in the Iowa Lakes area that met our desires. Being from out of state, our ability to see every house in-person wasn't always possible. Aaron graciously provided video walk-throughs for us, offered expertise and local knowledge. When we were in town, he was quick to respond to our requests, lining up home tours in short notice (even during holidays) to accommodate our timelines. Aaron helped us navigate the process from start to finish!

Working with Aaron was easy and enjoyable. He was very helpful in the process and knowledgeable. Always willing to answer a question and set up tours. Aaron is a really nice guy and provided many tips and pointers regarding purchasing and owning the property that were beneficial.

Aaron Jones did a fantastic job for us from start to finish. He was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. He helped us sell two properties and purchase a third all essentially within one weekend. This shows how well-connected and knowledgable he is in the lakes area. We highly recommend him for your home buying or selling needs.

We worked with Will while we were buying a condo in Okoboji. Will was actually working for the seller but helped us close the saleI was so impressed with how he dealt with the elderly sellers by making our sale happen so the couple could close on another house out of town within 24 hours.Would use Will for any buying/selling in the area

Aaron originally sold us our lake house in 2020. We had a good experience with Aaron at that time so when we were ready to sell, we knew Aaron was the realtor we wanted to work with. He did not disappoint. He did a very good job of listing our home and shortly after, helped us sign the contract with the buyers of our home. We just completed the closing of the sale and are impressed with Aaron and his team. We would recommend Aaron and his team to anyone who is thinking of buying or selling a home in the Lake Okoboji area. Also, after we first purchased the home, whenever we had a question about a service or some information, Aaron was the person we went to. He has a lot of great contacts.

Bridges Bay Resort

Bridges Bay Resort in East Lake Okoboji

Bridges Bay Resort is built on the land purchased a few years prior which used to be owned by the Nielsen family of Arnolds Park. This huge complex consists of a hotel, 3 condo buildings (a 4th is under construction), and over 100 vacation cabins. A popular part of the resort is the indoor waterpark that cabin and condo owners have access to, but also, so does the public for a fee. Braccos is a fantastic summertime restaurant and bar which is frequented by boat, by car, and by foot, especially from the owners of the condos and cabins. All of the units at Bridges Bay have an opportunity for a boat hoist, and it is an extremely popular destination for out of towners looking for a vacation spot in Okoboji. Because Bridges Bay is not within the city limits, many owners utilize property management companies to help them rent their units by the day, week, and month. I've personally sold and shown many condo and cabin units and would be delighted to help.

"Turn-Over" Thermocline

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.
