  Frank Lloyd Wright’s Cedar Rock Season Opening
  Begins: May 22, 2013
  Ends: May 22, 2013
  
  In the minds of many Midwest travelers, Frank Lloyd Wright is more connected to the state of Wisconsin, but Iowa has a number of notable Wright-designed houses and buildings. The Agnes and Lowell Walter home at Cedar Rock State Park, outside Quasqueton, is a particular gem. Sitting on the brow of a hill overlooking the Wapsipinicon River, the house commands spectacular views of the grounds and river. rnThis summer, you can tour the home, see the original furnishings that Wright chose himself, and visit the Wright-designed boathouse on the Wapsipinicon River, every Wednesday through Sunday, in Cedar Rock State Park. The Walter house is open for tours May 22 and will remain open until October 27, 2013. Tours depart from the Visitor\'s Center on the hour from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Please call or email ahead to reserve your space: (319) 934-3572 cedar_rock@dnr.iowa.govrn
