| Two riverboats docked in Iowa and one in Illinois offer exciting riverboat
gambling just minutes from Sunset Lakes Resort in the Quad Cities,
USA community of Moline and Rock Island, Illinois, and Davenport
and Bettendorf, Iowa.
Of course the riverboat cuisine is also some of the finest and best
priced in the area.
While in this area, you’ll want to visit the Bishop Hill Colony
Church. The colony was first established in 1846, but today in this
tranquil place you’ll still see people dressed in 19th-century
apparel. The Bishop Hill Museum houses the works of painter Olof
Krans who depicted life in the Bishop Hill Colony Church, which
was a commune during his time. The museum provides an interesting
and detailed history of the colony and the Swedish religious dissenters
who founded the colony. Don't forget to visit the John Deere Pavilion, a museum dedicated to the history of John Deere tractors.
The Amana Colonies in nearby Iowa were also established as a commune
in the 1800’s, but now provides a wide variety of shopping areas, museums, agricultural exhibits,
and a performing arts center that allows visitors to see an intimate look at how life was in the 1800s.
If this isn’t the picture you had in mind of a fun and relaxing
time, the Quad Cities provide a night
life like no other. Spend the evening strolling down the main streets
or attending a comedy show or
dramatic production.
