Boji Waterfront Retreat - Millers Bay Canals

Summary:
Soak up the best of life at the lake as you enjoy our Waterfront Retreat on the Millers Bay Canals in the quiet village of Wahpeton.
This cottage has just finished its renovation and now features all new furniture and a relaxed beach house style. Your stay here will ensure your time at the lake with family or friends is an Aussie experience without the need for the 15 hr flying time!
Enjoy the kayaks or the stand up paddle board and head straight out to the dock and onto the water.

The Space:
Situated in the Miller’s Bay canals just off West Lake in the quiet village of Wahpeton.
This home in a peaceful part of the lakes district offers a private dock where your boat and jet ski can be kept for the duration of your stay. Enjoy plenty of water fun at popular West Lake or travel by boat across the lake for dinner and entertainment at Arnold’s Park area. The Barefoot bar and parks marina is about a 15 min boat ride away or a 17 min drive. Perhaps you would prefer to just enjoy the ambiance of a fire on the lawns on a cooler night and a bbq on the grill. This is a family home for creating lasting memories in.
The property itself offers a spacious split level home including 3 bedrooms, master with King bed bed and a gorgeous view of the water. The second bedroom offers a queen bed and half bath ensuite while bedroom 3 also has a queen bed. The main bathroom with bath tub and shower over the bath is situated between the two Queen bedrooms.
The large eat in kitchen has all one could need when cooking up a storm and a Nespresso coffee machine for a relaxed morning coffee on the outside patio.
There is parking available on the driveway for two cars and also for one car inside the garage.
This property is ideal for couples or families with older children.
We are Australian and therefore we hope you’ll enjoy the little Aussie touches throughout the cottage including a bottle of local South Australian wine, vegemite for you to try on toast with butter and your morning coffee or Tim tam biscuits for the sweet tooth.
If staying in winter then perhaps try your hand at some ice fishing or ice skating on the lake. Fast wifi means you can also enjoy working from your home away from home or catch up on wherever you left off watching on Netflix.
Bed linen and towels are provided for all beds.
Feel free to bring your boat. There is no boat hoist but you can tie your boat to the dock as the water remains lovely and calm in the canals.
All bed linen and towels are included but please bring your own beach towels.

Great vacation
We had a wonderful time on our fishing trip. The house was so clean and it had everything you need. The beds were comfortable which is always a plus for us!! I would not hesitate to stay there again! We had no problems communicating with the owner of the property! She checked in with us to make sure everything was okay. Overall it was great. Anyone needing a place to stay around Lake Okoboji should rent this in a heartbeat!!!

Relaxing
The place was nice and relaxing. The fishing wasn't to bad either. We took our boat and everything was safe and sound as we left it hooked to the dock. Friendly people in the area and great places to eat.

Take A Break Holiday Rentals Okoboji
We spent the weekend in the fall at the Take A Break Holiday Rentals in Okoboji. Had an amazing time. It was a great place to stay, and we will definitely return. It works great for us as our aunt and uncle live 3 doors down. Sat around a campfire both nights and rode bikes during the day. Very relaxing.

The house was perfect for 4! Well appointed amenities. Listing is exactly what you experience. We appreciated having dock access so close and a locked garage for fish gear etc.

August in Okoboji
We come yearly to Okoboji and this is the first time we rented a house, usually do a condo. Good location on canala and nice outdoor space. Able to paddle board and kayak and enjoy a lovely house. Grill was very nice. Unfortunately the weather was extreme hot but nice breeze on the water. Spent more time at indoor activities. Enough room for 5 adults in the home. Hope to return next year!

Long weekend getaway
The property was amazing! Kim was so easy to keep in touch with and ask questions when needed. It is centrally located and very easy to get just about anywhere around Milford, including Okoboji and Spirit Lake. We had the most 2 perfect weather days so that helped of course but the property was very comfortable and well stocked. Beautiful outside sitting area where we enjoyed breakfast. We didn't get a chance to use the kayaks and/or paddleboard but checked them out in the garage and they looked great! A great stay for a much needed vacation! Thank you Kim and Barry!

Wonderful Getaway
Had a friends getaway and we all loved this place. It is exactly as shown but even better in person. Very clean and has everything you need and great communication with the hosts. Loved how quiet it was there and great to walk around and next time we are looking for better weather to get on the lake! We will be going again!
