Review & FAQ:
If you're interested in getting a feel for central Iowa, consider visiting Boone, another inviting city in the Des Moines Township. Visitors can learn about the city at the downtown Boone History Center, but the bulk of the city's other attractions can be found in the surrounding area. The Boone & Scenic Valley railroad offers train rides through the countryside, while the Seven Oaks ski resort provides the opportunity to ski and snowboard in the winter or float down the river in the summer. Last but not least, be sure to sample some of the area's excellent local wine and beer.
