About a dozen college buddies and I are trying to find a good place to have a reunion of sorts this summer, and the Lake Okoboji area is the leading candidate right now. But, we can%26#39;t find much information about what kind of nightlife the Okoboji area offers. Before we book the trip it%26#39;d be nice to know if there are plenty of nightlife options to choose from there. We%26#39;ve heard good stories about Okoboji and that there are good good bars and pubs but we can%26#39;t find much mention of them on any websites. Can anyone provide some info on the Okoboji Lakes area nightlife? Any opinions or favorite spots or general insights to the nightlife and party scene there would be helpful. All the websites and tourism magazines are understandably family-oriented, but that%26#39;s just not what we%26#39;re looking for. If we come down there this summer, it will be to unwind and have some fun. Any help out there? Thanks!! Chris, Minneapolis
Okoboji nightlifeArnolds Park is the center of Okoboji nightlife. I can%26#39;t really speak as to the quality or to specific places, but I can assure you that many people come to Okoboji just for the nightlife.
Some of the more popular places are the Ritz (on the water), Regal Beagle, and Captain%26#39;s Getaway. If you come on a weekend in the summertime, chances are you%26#39;ll find many watering hole packed. Your biggest concern is paying the cover charge or the wait to get in if you don%26#39;t arrive early...
Okoboji nightlifeHello Chris
I grew up in the Okobji Area, and loved it. The night life is what I remember most. There are great bars such as the Ritz, Captains Getaway, Barefoot bar, and Whisky Dicks. You will have a blast at any of these locations. During the day alot of people head for Gull point. There is a wide range of ages on this beach, but everyone is always drunk!!!!! It is always the most croweded on the weekends, If you have access to a boat I would make a stop at the point. It%26#39;s location is on west lake. Also on west is the Emporium. There are many shops, but it is also the location of Whisky Dicks. You can Dock the boat there, and have a lot of bars within walking distance. The Ritz is located on East lake, and is known for thier fish bowls. Now barefoot bare is great during the day and night. It is located at Parks Marina, and is outside. The bar is in a grass hut on the patio right on the lake. The Ritz and Whisky Dicks both have outdoor drinking areas as well. I hope I helped, and have fun!!!!!!
