One of the top-rated farmers' markets in the country!

We greatly enjoyed our visit here and would highly recommend! Send us a selfie if you go :)

This spectacular bridge is part of a 25-mile paved biking and walking trail called High Trestle Trail. The bridge is beautiful to visit at both night and day!

Ledges, as the name suggests, has many rock ledges and other natural scenery one wouldn't typically expect in Iowa! Free admission and free parking throughout the park.

Delicious and unique flavors, ranging from red velvet oreo, to mango strawberry sorbet, to chocolate covered potato chip (one of Josh's favorites)!
