  • Historical as well as scenic. Good examples of the Frank Lloyd Wright architectural influence. Great for a picnic, gathering or just a walk or run.

  • Cost $1 to get in. It's a nice clean park with lots of options for events. Even has a playground for kids. Has just a few view points of the river and the #11 lock and damn. I honestly was more impressed with the river views at the Julian Dubuque Monument.
  • We had a great time walking around all the different areas at Eagle point Park and Dubuque Iowa. You have a great view of the river and there are a lot of nice walking trails. Definitely worth the $1 that you have to spend to get into the park!
