Cedar River
10 miles away
I drove there from Colorado because i heard there was a whitewater park built here, but didn't find one. It looked like there could be a wave there at some point but no eddy service. Is it possible I went to the wrong place? I went to Palisades-Kepler state park, at the bottom of the hill at the river, it was a wide open flat river with a low head dam that had been partially removed with a small rapid in it but nothing i could really play on. Is there another one somewhere else in Iowa that is running right now?...

Lake McBride
13 miles away
I have only been at Lake McBride once but I am definitely going back.  We have plans in the works to make a day of it in the very near future.  The first time was such a pleasant experience that we can't wait to spend more time there....I absolutly love this lake the fishing is good the water is clean and the beach is a nice place to cool off! My kids love it and the boating is relaxing nice and slow no confusion. And there are plenty of facilities if you're out in the boat if your kids or wife need to use the bathroom! And I highly recommend renting a pontoon boat from the livery for at least an hour. It is fun!...

Ski Snowstar is a family oriented winter sports park featuring skiing, snowboarding, and tubing. The scenic setting is located in beautiful Coal Creek Valley, just 5 minutes west of the Quad-Cities in Andalusia, Illinois. Carved out of the native hardwood hills along the Mississippi River in west-central Illinois are 28 acres of winter fun. A state-of-the- art snowmaking system and grooming fleet provide 100% coverage when Mother Nature is not cooperating....
Snowstar, wow cool name, sounds sporty and trendy, I like it. Not just the name but ski area itself too of course. Sporty and trendy, just like me. Nah, seriously, it's a good place, and not far away. ...

I learned to ski at Chestnut Mountain, it's really good to go and learn at a local place like this before you go to the Rockies, so you don't waste time on the bunny slope over there....

Mount La Crosse
91 miles away
Mt. La Crosse is a great place to ski and is a convenient drive for many. There are enough challenging runs to keep you busy and a race course is available on Sundays. The Nastar course on Mt. La Crosse seems more difficult than in Beaver Creek, CO. They have a variety of runs and a terrain park. There are no hotels at the base but most are a ten minute drive away....
