This new hotel just south of Emerald Hills golf course between Milford and Arnolds Park offers 40 rooms with suites to meet your individual needs. One of the best things about Boulders Inn is that it is within walking distance of the Taco House. For some of you, I know that can be a big deal!


Okoboji Boat Works in West Lake Okoboji

Okoboji Boat Works

West Lake Okoboji

Okoboji Boat Works is home to "The Fish Shack" and "The Inconvenience Store". Formerly a marina of thriving boat sales since 1890, OBW now offers up many different rentals, a 24 hour gas dock, excursion boats, and more. I remember the days as a child of fishing for crappie and blue gill here and along the docks of Smith's Bay. Though the scenery has changed, the outstanding fishing has not.


Taco House

Cheap vs high end quality. A buyer's perspective.

The "Real" Estate Blog

Here's the scenario. You are building a house or remodeling your house. Material costs are up. Labor costs are up. You ask yourself, where can I save a buck? Before answering this question, you must be careful, especially if your home is located in an area where other quality homes are built, whether on the lake, off the lake, or in higher valued developments such as golf course developments, etc. Growing up in construction and with a plethora of new construction and remodels under my belt, let me share with you some of the easy things that your future buyers will recognize when they are looking for quality.
1. One of the first things buyers of higher end homes will look for is to determine if the owner used hollow core doors. It's an immediate sign that the seller was looking for ways to save money (where else then did they cut back that I can't see???)
2. The second most obvious is the counter tops. Did the sellers spend for a quality granite, quartz, or other hard surface, or was formica used?
3. The third item that might stick out is the cabinetry. Do the drawers have dovetail construction with hardwoods? Did they use "soft close" drawers? Are there pull outs for the pots and pans?
4. Flooring is an easy one also. Was laminate used, or is it engineered or hardwoods? Does the carpet convey a quality feel and plushness? Is there a nice thick pad underneath the carpet?
5. Though there are many other items to look at, cheap vs quality lighting and plumbing fixtures are probably the next major focus.

There is nothing wrong with with using lower cost materials, especially when trying to keep a project within budget, especially when trying to build more house for less money. Just be aware that most buyers looking to spend in excess of $300k for off lake homes and $500+ for East Lake chain homes, and $1M+ for West and Big Spirit will expect the very best materials and finishes.


The Coffee Shop

Milford

This quaint coffee shop in downtown Milford, IA is the talk of the town. You must stop in for a hot or cold drink and enjoy the atmosphere of this eclectic cafe. Locals and visitors alike enjoy meeting at this town favorite.


"The Bridge"

West Lake Okoboji

"The Bridge" has been referred to by the Wharf Bridge, the Kentucky Fried Chicken Bridge, the bridge connecting East and West, among other names. In the good old days, this was actually a draw bridge converted to the current permanent structure. In the 90's when the 3 lane was installed, there was talk about removing the bridge and making some drastic changes. All in all, the base of the bridge remained, and the upper structure was improved. I remember as a kid jumping off the bridge, and fishing on and under the bridge. In fact, an unforgettable memory I have is when I was fishing with my cousin and I casted out trying to reach the opposite corner of the bridge with my lure. In mid air, a pigeon flew and the timing was so great that my line wrapped around the pigeon, and the pigeon went into the water. I reeled it up and had caught a pigeon. My cousin then decided to hold this pigeon inside the front of his coat. We went to show people at Okoboji Boats what we had caught. When we got there, he opened his jacket, and the pigeon had pooped all over his white shirt.

Aaron Jones is simply the best in the business. In 2013 we made the decision to sell our home and at the same time by another and because of the personal relationship we had with Aaron, we chose him to be our realtor. It was an excellent decision - our house sold in a week and he helped us get into our new house without having to move to an interim house. In 2018 we made the decision to sell our house again and without hesitation we chose Aaron again. His ability to communicate with us promptly and professionally was outstanding. He always had time for us no matter how many times we called him with questions. His advice and insight was terrific and even though we are moving out of the area, we would use Aaron again - without hesitation - for all of our real estate needs in the area. I recommend him to any of my friends/family/co-workers that are looking for a realtor. He is simply the best.

We recently purchased a million dollar condo at Okoboji, and we are incredibly grateful that we had Aaron as our agent. From the first conversation to the day we closed, he was everything you’d hope for in a real estate professional. Aaron is extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and truly understands the Okoboji market inside and out. He guided us through every detail, kept us informed, and made what could have been a stressful, high-dollar transaction feel smooth and easy. His communication, professionalism, and follow-through were outstanding the entire way through. What stood out most was how much he genuinely cares about his clients. Even after closing, Aaron has continued to check in and make sure everything is going well, something you don’t always see in real estate today. We absolutely love our condo, and we’re thankful for the exceptional service Aaron provided. If you’re buying or selling around the lakes, you won’t find a better agent. Highly recommended.

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!

We had the pleasure of working with Aaron (and Beth too!) to not only sell our property but to also buy our dream home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, they both demonstrated professionalism, deep market knowledge, and a commitment to getting us the best possible outcome.They guided us through every step of the process—from preparing the home for listing, to strategic pricing, to setting up a showing - the first showing sold! :*) Aaron also helped us in finding our dream home - setting up times for us to look at the home and helping us to negotiate a fair price. The communication was prompt, clear, and always reassuring. It was clear he had our best interests at heart and was truly invested in making the process as smooth and successful as possible.Thanks to their expertise and hard work, we sold our property quickly and at a price that met our expectations and we were then able to buy our new home! We highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell—this was a top-tier experience from start to finish.Thank you again, Aaron and Beth, for everything! We appreciate your top-notch service! :*) ~Brent and Lynn~
