Books ‘N Things was established in 1972 and has been in the Okoboji area for over 30 years.  We are proud to be the only original retailer still located in the Queen’s Court at Arnolds Park.  The business was started 48 years ago by Sandi & Jerry Wilmot.  We as their niece, nephew and daughter have now owned the business for the last two years and are excited to continue to grow the business providing quality Okoboji Apparel, Boji Bog Merchandise, Unique Gifts, Resort Clothing, Children’s Books & Toys and local Okoboji history books.

We plan to open for the 2021 season in early May and will be open seven days a week Memorial – Labor Day.
