This trip was a fishing trip to fish for bass on the Okiboji chain. Our lakes in MN are still frozen over and we like to travel to Iowa to get our open water fishing season early. The weather for this trip was brutal!!! It rained, snowed, sleeted, and we had wind gusts over 40 mph on Saturday!! But we fished all day all three days we were staying at this house. The house was perfect for our group and all six of us want to come back again to the same house some year in the future.The fireplace was very popular to warm up by after a long, cold, day on the water. We all had a great time thanks in part to the excellent accommodations!!
