Learn more about Spirit Lake

Glide across the crystal-clear waters of Big Spirit Lake, Iowa's largest natural lake beckoning with promises of walleye and perch. At Marble Beach State Recreation Area, fishing becomes less sport and more meditation. Downtown's Lake Street offers quaint shops that avoid tourist-trap tackiness, selling items you'll actually want to keep. The Iowa Great Lakes region surrounds you with options – East and West Okoboji Lakes provide alternative watery playgrounds. Robertson County Park delivers quintessential lakeside moments without crowds. For a sweet pause, Goodies Handmade Candies offers treats made the old-fashioned way. Maple Oak Beach provides the perfect sunset spot where even jaded travelers reach for their cameras.
