Top Ruthven Hotel Reviews

Reston Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Good, clean place with friendly staff."

AmericInn by Wyndham Okoboji

8/10 Good

"We stayed in a suite for two nights for a mini family vacation. Our room was clean and the attached exterior patio was well equipped. Pool and hot tub were well cared for and utilized by our family. Breakfast was descent, but would have preferred something different the second day, perhaps some sausages or bacon as a suggestion. Other than that, it was a good place to sleep. Will stay again if the need arises."

Okoboji Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoy staying here. Always nice and clean. Staff is very friendly."

Vintage Block Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"What a great discovery for visits to the Iowa Great Lakes! The room and entire property were exceptionally clean, with great amenities like fire pits and corn hole games for guest use and tables outside each room with checkers sets for great evening lounging. The staff were nice kind and welcoming and management was available, attentive and also very kind. This place lives up to the “Iowa nice” reputation of the region. The location is also excellent—central to the entire Lakes area. I couldn’t have been more pleased with my stay."

Emmetsburg Hotel and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"It was a very nice place to stay"

Travelodge by Wyndham Spirit Lake/Okoboji
