Ida County, Iowa
Western Iowa’s Ida County is about as rectangular as counties come. It’s home to Battle Creek, which despite its name, is a pretty peaceful place.
The county seat, Ida Grove, has a thing for castles. Yes, you read that right. Several buildings sport castle-like architecture, giving the town a fairytale vibe.
Good things come in small packages. There are several parks, including Moorehead Park with its spring-fed lake. Agriculture is the backbone here, but don’t be fooled. These farmers know how to have fun at the annual Ida County Fair.
