Arnold’s Park Map and Brochure (2025 – 2023)
Wrapped around Lake Okoboji’s shoreline, Arnold’s Park centers on its vintage wooden coaster and lakeside midway that’s been drawing crowds since the early 1900s. The park’s tight loop of rides, docks, and arcades means a good Arnold’s Park map is essential to trace its winding paths without missing the Queen II dock, the go-kart oval, or a tucked-away funnel cake stand.
