RE/MAX Hall of Fame & Lifetime Achievement
For many years of my life, I managed a variety of different businesses. During this time, I've learned just how important service, aggressiveness, and new marketing methods are for any business, especially the real estate industry. In fact, I co-founded a software development company in 2011 (leadcity.com & signfast.com), and we are finally launching our real estate management software and electronic and digital signature solutions.
One thing I've learned is that it's key to surround yourself with a great team and exceptional talent, which is why I'm proud to be Broker/Owner at RE/MAX Lakes Realty. We have the best real estate brand in the world and the finest team of REALTORS and employees in the Iowa Great Lakes. Also, I've lived around Lake Okoboji my entire life, and understand the local markets thoroughly.
In 2014, I purchased the local RE/MAX Office and REMAX Lakes Realty has been #1 in sales in Dickinson County ever since; in fact I have been the #1 agent in sales production cumulatively since 2017. In the fall of 2022, my wife and I had our first child together and expecting another.
In the Spring of 2023, I decided to form a team, which we have named the BojiHomes.com Team @ RE/MAX Lakes Realty | Aaron Jones & Associates. Being with RE/MAX has been the best decision I ever made starting from day 1 as an agent.
My wife Brooke has her own team here at RE/MAX Lakes Realty, and our new addition to the family, Emersyn Sophia Jones will be an Okoboji Lake girl. Okoboji is quite simply a great place to raise a family. I have an older daughter Alexis that is in the nursing profession.
Working with buyers and sellers to list and sell homes in Okoboji and the surrounding area is just an incredible passion of mine. I am confident that you will enjoy working with myself or any of our outstanding agents. We truly understand the challenges our clients face buying and selling homes in the Okoboji market, and we will be your experts to guide the way. Rest assured that you will always come first and that you will receive Exceptional Service and Peace of Mind. Work Hard. Do Good. Be Nice.

The Family Diner is Spirit Lake, IA is a local favorite! They offer up a large portion for small money, but whether you come early or late you may be in for a wait. With homemade bread and the largest sausage patty you have seen, The Family Diner is consistently delicious. They are open only for breakfast and lunch and closed two days a week. In my former career at Stylecraft, the family diner was definately a favorite when our friends would visit from North Carolina. They were always inpressed with the bread and rolls and corn beef hash.
The harbor is a man made inlet located on the north end of West Lake. A board walk surrounds the harbor and this is one of the most tranquil parts of the lake. Homeowners in the harbor have a more affordable way to have access to West Lake, and still get to enjoy the clean waters West Lake has to offer. Homes in the Harbor typically range from about $350k to as much as $700k.
Boulders Inn and Suites promises to make your Okoboji vacation comfortable and relaxing. This new hotel just south of Emerald Hills golf course between Milford and Arnolds Park offers 40 rooms with suites to meet your individual needs. One of the best things about Boulders Inn is that it is within walking distance of the Taco House. For some of you, I know that can be a big deal!
Terrace Park is located in Brown's Bay on West Lake, Okoboji. It is one of the largest public beaches on West Lake and has entertained beach goers for many years. Next to Terrace Park is Boys Town out of Omaha, Nebraska. I remember as a kid spending entire days at terrace park, either riding bicycle or taking a moped (yes a moped) down to meet with friends and playing king on the dock. In 2010, the morning after "the storm", Terrace Park was carnage. Boat were stacked on top of each other. Trees were uprooted, and hoists were tossed around. Boats and other water craft were found in Terrace Park that belonged to owners on the North end of West Lake.
Arrowood is a year-round conference center and hotel with over 100 guest rooms, whirlpool suites and a "Great Room" for hosting group events and hospitality suites. Formerly known as Village East, the resort offers an outdoor pool, deck, playground, volleyball and croquet courts and a heated indoor pool area. Hotel goers can also enjoy an on-site salon, Minervas Bar and Eatery and lit parking. Located on Brooks National Golf Course, Arrowwood Resort offers some of the finest lodging around. Years ago, Brooks Golf Course clubhouse was actually housed on the rear side of Arrowood, but since then, the course has been converted to 27 holes with a a new separate clubhouse. Also, the Racquet Club was a part of the facility, offering workout facilities, racquet ball, and tennis. However, with the addition of the YMCA, the racquet club was unsustainable and converted into retail.
Emerald Hills Golf Course is one of the premier golf courses in the Iowa Great Lakes. Golfers throughout Okoboji will tell you that compared to the rest of the golf courses around, Emerald Hills is probably the most challenging. When I grew up as a kid, we lived just a half block from the back side of the course. We would sneak on with a couple short little clubs and balls we found walking the course and sometimes spent more time being chased by the sprinklers than trying to hit golf balls. Emerald Hills was owned by Gordy and Bette Benit many years ago and they can be credited with growing this course into the masterpiece it has become. Later purchased by Randy Rohlfsen and a few others, Emerald has flourished as one of the best courses around. If memory serves me right, Randy has been there since the early 1990's and has always had a strong conviction to help young golfers. He has taught and coached numerous high school teams, and they also put on a 5 day junior camp every year which has been a tremendous hit. I grew up on this course and can honestly say, you better be hitting the ball straight!
One of a kind Authentic Mexican Cuisine right here in West Okoboji! A local favorite and rated five stars by visitors young and old. Be sure to put this as a favorite on your list of places to not miss when you are vacationing in the Lakes area. Close to Terrace Park so if you are feeling up for a small walk you may walk from Terrace Park to the Taco House.
Okoboji Boat Works is home to "The Fish Shack" and "The Inconvenience Store". Formerly a marina of thriving boat sales since 1890, OBW now offers up many different rentals, a 24 hour gas dock, excursion boats, and more. I remember the days as a child of fishing for crappie and blue gill here and along the docks of Smith's Bay. Though the scenery has changed, the outstanding fishing has not.
"The Bridge" has been referred to by the Wharf Bridge, the Kentucky Fried Chicken Bridge, the bridge connecting East and West, among other names. In the good old days, this was actually a draw bridge converted to the current permanent structure. In the 90's when the 3 lane was installed, there was talk about removing the bridge and making some drastic changes. All in all, the base of the bridge remained, and the upper structure was improved. I remember as a kid jumping off the bridge, and fishing on and under the bridge. In fact, an unforgettable memory I have is when I was fishing with my cousin and I casted out trying to reach the opposite corner of the bridge with my lure. In mid air, a pigeon flew and the timing was so great that my line wrapped around the pigeon, and the pigeon went into the water. I reeled it up and had caught a pigeon. My cousin then decided to hold this pigeon inside the front of his coat. We went to show people at Okoboji Boats what we had caught. When we got there, he opened his jacket, and the pigeon had pooped all over his white shirt.
We had an amazing experience with Aaron! He was incredibly fast in responding to my request to view a house and provided excellent advice throughout the process. Friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful, he made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a responsive and knowledgeable realtor!
Aaron has a great approach and blended patience with persistence to deliver for us as his client! He spent the necessary time to get to know what was important to us and then showed us several properties to confirm what we described and pointed out the trade-off's of different attributes. We would definitely use his expertise again.
When we started looking for a location to start our business, Aaron was very helpful and easy to work with. His schedule was flexible to meet our needs. The entire process was simple and he took care of us all the way through the purchase and even after when we ran into a couple issues with the A/C and garage doors. We would definitely work with Aaron again in the future!
Aaron did an amazing job selling the property! He has a great staff and a large network that can put buyers and sellers together! Thanks buddy Awesome job!
Working with Aaron was easy and enjoyable. He was very helpful in the process and knowledgeable. Always willing to answer a question and set up tours. Aaron is a really nice guy and provided many tips and pointers regarding purchasing and owning the property that were beneficial.
Aaron Jones did a fantastic job for us from start to finish. He was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. He helped us sell two properties and purchase a third all essentially within one weekend. This shows how well-connected and knowledgable he is in the lakes area. We highly recommend him for your home buying or selling needs.
Aaron originally sold us our lake house in 2020. We had a good experience with Aaron at that time so when we were ready to sell, we knew Aaron was the realtor we wanted to work with. He did not disappoint. He did a very good job of listing our home and shortly after, helped us sign the contract with the buyers of our home. We just completed the closing of the sale and are impressed with Aaron and his team. We would recommend Aaron and his team to anyone who is thinking of buying or selling a home in the Lake Okoboji area. Also, after we first purchased the home, whenever we had a question about a service or some information, Aaron was the person we went to. He has a lot of great contacts.
I wanted to share my excellent experience in selling my house through Aaron Jones and the RE/MAX team. Aaron Jones did an excellent job of marketing my home and answering any questions I had. Once a purchase agreement was signed, RE/MAX also let me use their enclosed trailer for moving purposes. Beth Toliver also was great at keeping me informed during the closing process. I would definitely recommend Aaron Jones and the RE/MAX team when you are buying or selling a property.
Aaron was right there every step of the way to guide us throw the process, and responsive to our endless questions. Purchasing this property from another state provided a different set of challenges for us as buyers. IE. Knowing the ins and outs of Iowa Real Estate, Area Utilities, and a remote final walk thru. Aaron was right there every step of the way. Thanks Aaron!
Aaron was very attentive to my needs as a buyer. He has exceptional market knowledge & strong communication skills. He was able to assist in negotiating for the things I wanted. I believe Aaron has a genuine care for the client's needs!
