residence Cedar Rock. Our annual Under Moonlight event will be Saturday October 3rd from 6-9pm. Spice up your weekend with a trolley ride and an after-hours tour of the estate and then enjoy a fireside snack. The Walter House is close to home and something everyone should take the opportunity to experience.
This beautiful home perches on the Wapsipinicon River and is created mainly from brick, concrete, and glass. The grounds include a Wright designed entrance gate, the Usonian home, a boathouse, and council fire area for outdoor entertaining. This evening is an opportunity for you to view the home and grounds at your own pace. It is also your only chance to experience the typically inaccessible maid’s quarters and boathouse. For this event there are not formal tours offered but our knowledgeable staff and volunteers will be available to answer any questions you may have as you meander through the park.
This is a fund-raiser for the Walter House. Visit us at 2611 Quasqueton Diagonal Blvd (Buchanan Co. Road W-35), Independence. This State Park is funded solely through the Walter Charitable Trust Fund. Donations are never required, but are needed and appreciated. A $3.00 donation per adult will be graciously accepted. Photography is encouraged.
