General Description

Sitting upon perhaps the highest perch of West Lake Okoboji, the breathtaking views to the north and south of the lake are second to none. This gorgeous home and attached guesthouse features an expansive 108' of lakeshore, providing the upmost privacy and seclusion from both edges of the property, which is a hard to come by around the lake. The lakeside space includes a professionally installed putting green by intelligent turf and greens finished off with artificial turf (a must for your furry loved ones). The lakeside trolley takes care of any concern you may have with the brand new stairs. You will love the 3.5 car heated garage with the professionally installed floor by adaptive coatings. Another rarity for a West Lake property is the u-shaped driveway offering plenty of parking for all of your friends and family. Inside the home, you will appreciate in-floor heat, 2 primary suites offering showers with body jets and thermostatic valve/temp controls. You will walk in to a welcoming entry with 26 foot ceilings, followed by 12 and 10 foot ceiling throughout. This home is also smart-home enabled with security throughout. Ohhh, and then the guesthouse. The guesthouse has been completely updated, and is 3 bed, 2 bath, with a basement for a storm shelter, laundry and utilities. The entire property boasts 8 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a sports room (3 TV's), 2 media rooms, workout room, office, and plenty of storage. Properties like this are simply few and far between. Trades considered. Owners are licensed real estate agents in the state of Iowa.

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...
