Review & FAQ:
Tucked away just off Interstate 80, Walcott might seem like an odd place to visit on a day trip, but it's home to some quirky attractions that you won't find anywhere else. Chief among these is the Iowa 80 truck stop, a massive complex of restaurants, souvenir shops, and stores selling truck parts. There is also a display of full-size semi-trucks on display. In keeping with the truck theme, the town's other principal attraction is the Iowa 80 Trucking Museum, which boasts a collection of vintage gas pumps, signs, and more than 100 vehicles dating as far back as 1910.
