General Description

Welcome to your Dixon Beach sanctuary, where easy, comfortable lake living blends seamlessly with the breathtaking beauty of West Lake Okoboji. Every inch of this home has been thoughtfully transformed, not just for style, but to capture the essence of what makes life at the lake so effortless and full of joy. This is where life happens–three levels of inviting spaces, designed for gathering, sharing, and simply being together. From the moment you step into the main floor's serene primary suite to when you take in the guest rooms tucked away for perfect privacy, it's all about living well without pretense. It's when you step outside that you really feel the magic though. The walkout basement flows right into a spacious, level yard–a perfect canvas for everything from family games like corn hole and smash ball to quiet moments with your feet in the grass, watching the lake just beyond. The yard becomes an extension of the lake itself, with the promenade close by, adding energy and connection to the rhythm of lakeside living. Don't forget the guest house. Tucked behind the main home, it's a private retreat with its own slice of that stunning blue-water view, offering space and serenity for visitors without missing a moment of what makes this place so special. Year-round, this home keeps giving. Two fireplaces extend your seasons, making this the perfect hideaway whether the snow is falling or the sun is shining. with 50 feet of sought-after Gold Coast shoreline, the lake is always your backdrop–white sails gliding by in the summer, and sunsets painting the sky in vibrant, unforgettable colors. This isn't about luxury; it's about living. It's where life slows down, where the lake invites you to stay a little longer, and where comfort, connection, and simplicity make every moment count.

O'Farrell Sisters
O'Farrell Sisters in Okoboji

The O'Farrell Sister is a historic Okoboji Tradition that one must check out for breakfast and lunch!

'Farrell Sisters History
The O'Farrell Sisters restaurant was born in 1949 at the bridge on Hwy 71, between East and West Lake Okoboji. Edna Mae and Arlene O'Farrell bought the business from Ike Kissinger who was running for Sheriff of Dickinson County.

In the early years the girls were open seven days a week and had a booming business in no time. The fried chicken dinners on Sunday evenings were especially popular. There were times when the line waiting to get in was so long they'd have to lock the door and would often run out of chicken!

In 1959 Arlene married and moved to Tallahassee, Florida with her husband Furman Henderson. Edna Mae and Ferne continued in the restaurant, moving to its present location that same year. This spot had a garden and chicken coup, which was moved to the house across the street.

Ferne died in 1974 and Edna Mae in 1978. Arlene sold the business to nieces Joyce Gapinski, Jo Ann Anderson, Charlotte Sarvie and Cheri Petersen (these are married names). The nieces successfully ran the restaurant from 1979 through 2003. After losing Jo Ann in 1997 and Cheri in 2002, Joyce and Charlotte decided to sell after the 2003 season.

The rest is to be continued...
