ABOUT
OKOBOJI - THE RITZ
Welcome to the heart of the action in between East and West Okoboji! Our dock location at The Ritz puts you exactly where you want to be for a classic lake experience. Situated on the southern end of the lake in Arnolds Park, the docks are positioned directly in front of the iconic Ritz waterfront, known for its lively atmosphere and expansive patio.
Members will find the location incredibly convenient for a quick transition from the water to the shore, whether you’re stopping in for a "Ritz Rita" or meeting friends for lunch on the deck. The area is a hub of activity, offering prime views of the shoreline and easy access to nearby attractions like the Amusement Park. When arriving, keep an eye out for the designated club slips and enjoy the deep blue waters of the Iowa Great Lakes.
