Our inspiration: Bringing joy to Arnolds Park/Okoboji
I started Okoboji Party Pub Co. after experiencing the incredible fun of this concept in other vibrant cities. Seeing an opportunity to bring that same sense of togetherness and entertainment to our wonderful community here in Arnolds Park/Okoboji ! The goal is to provide something new and exciting for our locals and the many tourists who visit the Lakes during our summer months.
You will find us on the corner of Broadway Street in the Old School merchant next to that CORNDOG !!

ABOUT ME:
My name is Paula Bates and I am an Iowa Native! I grew up in Clear Lake, Iowa where I attended and gradated high school & college along with my 2 brothers Bryan & Rich. It is a unique , quaint little town that I will forever hold a special love for in my heart! I moved to and lived in LA California later in life and the fulfillment , and experiences I gained there have no bounds. Magical!
During "Covid" I decided that it was my Destiny to retreat back home and re=establish a life closer to family and friends, landing me here in Okoboji/Spirit Lake. As many of the locals may remember I managed Minerva's Restaurant for several years until the change over, which essentially led me to where I'm at now. I take an enormous amount of PRIDE in everything that I do in life and this is no exception.
In my spare time: I enjoy my 1yr GSD: He is my best buddy and my most loyal companion. I enjoy my family and friends and always love meeting the new people I encounter daily in my Taxi Service. I love to ride my motorcycle and I love being out on that lake!
I hope to bring a lot of Joy and Fond Memories to all that get the chance to "PEDAL & PARTY" on the TROLLEY!
