Independent organizers fill the off-season with large indoor markets featuring food producers, farms, wineries, and artisan foods. Locals treat it like a winter farmers market under one roof.

We participated in a large garage sale. Bathrooms were great. They had the concessions open and the hotdogs were fantastic! Plenty of good parking

Very large building available for rent. I have participated in several Made in Iowa events at this location, and it's been wonderful! Plenty of parking, room for 140+ vendors indoors, a full racetrack, concession areas. Slightly outdated, but could be improved with some paint and new lighting!

We had the BEST experience! Chris and the whole staff were so friendly! We went with my two year old nephew and he had such an AMAZING time! Five stars for sure! 🙂

This is definitely a go if you know type of place. It’s a specific genre of fun. If you like loud disorganized short lived fun with not much to do in between then it’s for you. Don’t want to complain about food as I didn’t purchase my own. But maybe invest in a microwave!?!?! Air temp cheeseburgers don’t really get the job done. The ONLY reason I’ll give 2 stars was the sweet old lady at the mercy stand and some of the faculty staff. They were extremely nice and friendly.

We had a lot of fun but feel it's not right that you have to buy water. No drinking fountains!

I took my brother to the Dinosaur Adventure event here last weekend. Overall, the building itself was clean and spacious. There was plenty of room for several large stations and bouncy houses. The bathrooms were very clean and large. There are plenty of parking spaces when you arrive. The event itself was not fantastic for what you pay for it. I'm sure it's not at the fault of Hawkeye Down. Covid safety concerns: it seemed the place was a bit over-packed. Nearly no one wore a mask as masks are not required. It was listed on the Dinosaur Adventure website that there were covid concerns to be aware of before attending the event.

When to a gun show here over the weekend, not the best expo for a gun shop but it works, they've had quite a few gun shows here along with some other stuff, but I've only been in this expo for gun shows, they have a lot of dealers from the area and is usually $6 for an adult 13 and up and $1 for 12 and under. They have a concession stand and they do sell beer, so if you want you can buy beer, guns, and ammo along with knifes and other misc things they have here. There is a gun safe vendor there he (the vendor) has some nice safes and they are made right here in Iowa. If you see a that there is going to be a gun show here then I suggests you go check it out! Gun shows are great for people watching and then after you do that you should be ready to buy one or two for yourself.
