We visit the famous popcorn ball on display, step inside a local museum, and walk through a detailed model pioneer town that brings early Iowa history to life. You’ll also see the historic railroad depot, downtown murals, and important community landmarks.
We spend time along the Raccoon River at Chautauqua Park, home to the only complete Chautauqua Building in the state of Iowa, originally constructed in 1908. While there, we also visit the first log cabin built in the area (1854), preserved within the park.
