Southeast Iowa Area Information:
The mighty Mississippi River widens out by Fort Madison and catches its breath, meandering along our border, offering spectacular views and unlimited recreational opportunities. This area of the Mississippi is also known as Lake Cooper and at 30,000 acres, it's Iowa's largest lake, known nationwide for its boating, world class fishing and hunting. It's easy to locate Fort Madison as America's Great River Road, U.S. Hwy 61 leads you here.

You will find the City of Mt. Pleasant and Henry County tucked away in the southeast corner of Iowa, along with the beautiful rolling hills of corn, soy bean fields and natural woodlands. But it is what our visitors discover amongst the agriculture and natural woodlands that keep them coming back. What you will come across on your stay is simplicity, a sense of community, authentic people and experiences and, most of all, a community moving forward.
