*Wide open spaces and a county seat with everything we need on the Minnesota border in NW-Iowa! Our visit to Emmet County was funded and sponsored by the Western Iowa Tourism Region. Some of the services, meals and goods were complimentary. The views expressed in this blog post are of our own. Now, let’s Gallivant!
Northwest Iowa’s furthest reaches have a lot to offer when it comes to scenery, restaurants, roadside attractions and plenty of ways to stay active. We were hungry for another helping of Estherville and we received exactly what we wanted!
Coffee-Up
Stay Active
As you can see, there’s oodles of ways to take a scenic and memorable hike in Emmet County. You can do this while you’re inside the city limits of Estherville as well!
360th Avenue
Sometimes it’s what’s not on your schedule that can create the most unforgettable moments of a road trip. That was the case during our day in Estherville when I discovered the beauty of Emmet County’s countryside on 360th Avenue.
Lunchtime
Check-In
Oh yea, we got a nice room in Estherville! Not far at all from all of the wonderful areas we’ve already shown you and the ones we’re about to. It’s no secret that I love small towns and the convenience they provide on a road trip. Let’s check into our abode in Emmet County!
Another great stay in NW-Iowa! The folks at Estherville Hotel & Suites did a bang up job with our fantastic suite and they made sure we had a great morning with a hot breakfast. I think it’s obvious that I enjoyed the hot tub the most!
Night Out
Let’s Eat Steak
Northwest Iowa gets a lot of our attention on The Iowa Gallivant and you can see why. Estherville is a great area to get on your radar because there’s a lot to offer everybody who’s needing a memorable road trip. We stayed active, ate some great meals, relaxed and did a lot of goofing around. I think we all need that, and Estherville can make it happen for you!
