🍂 Your next getaway doesn’t have to be far away.

Imagine waking up in a warm, cozy dome surrounded by autumn trees. Spending the afternoon exploring the woods. Soaking in your private hot tub as the evening air turns crisp. Ending the night beside a crackling fire.

That’s a getaway at Oakwood’s Crane Tree Dome.

✨ Heated and air-conditioned
✨ Private hot tub
✨ Panoramic woodland views
✨ Your own outdoor fire pit
✨ Just 90 minutes from Omaha and Des Moines

Whether you’re celebrating something special or simply need a couple of days away, we’d love to welcome you.

🍁 Fall dates are available, and we’re accepting winter reservations, too!

🍂 A Little More Fall at Oakwood! 🍂

We thought A-frame season was coming to an end… but Mother Nature might have other plans! 🍁

With November looking promising, we’ve decided to extend the season for Hummingbird & Sparrow!

And because Iowa weather has a mind of its own, we’re offering a special November Guest Comfort Guarantee. If the forecast feels too chilly for your comfort, you can cancel right up until check-in!

✨ Crisp mornings, cozy campfires, peaceful nights, and a little extra time to escape before winter settles in.

November dates are officially OPEN! 🍁 Check our website, Airbnb, or HipCamp for rates and availability.

Cooler evenings. Warmer fires. Slower moments. 🍂🔥

There’s something magical about a campfire on a crisp fall evening.

The warmth of the flames. The crackle of burning wood. The cool autumn air. Conversations that wander, comfortable silences, and the kind of quiet that makes you forget about everything waiting for you back home.

No rush. No agenda. Just a little time to slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy being exactly where you are.

Sometimes the best part of getting away is simply having the time to do nothing at all.

✨ Fall was made for moments like these.

Come find your quiet at Oakwood Retreat. Prices and availability on our website, Airbnb, or HipCamp🌙

We came. We cackled. We served sangria. 🧙‍♀️

No one was turned into a toad, the crows were (mostly) well-behaved, and our Black Magic Sangria seemed to work its magic! 🍷✨

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who stopped by our little corner of the Forbidden Forest last night! We had so much fun meeting new faces, visiting with familiar ones, and sharing a little Oakwood magic.

And a special thank you to everyone who organized such a fun evening!

Until next time… stay wicked! 🖤🌲

We are incredibly honored to be featured in this quarter’s edition of IA Magazine!

When we first dreamed of creating Oakwood Retreat, our hope was to build a place where people could step away from the busyness of everyday life, reconnect with nature, and simply slow down.

To see that vision come to life is something special. To see it shared in the pages of a beautiful publication celebrating destinations across Iowa? That’s pretty incredible. ❤️

A heartfelt thank you to IA Magazine for choosing to share our little corner of the world, and to everyone who has supported us along the way. We’re so grateful to be part of the story of what makes Iowa such a wonderful place to explore.

🌿 Read the feature on pages 118–122:

🍂 One small clarification: While some of our accommodations are seasonal (March–October), our Crane Tree Dome, Cardinal Camper, and Goldfinch Camper are open year-round! There’s something magical about the woods in every season.

Thank you for being part of our journey. ❤️
