Steamboat Rock lives up to the descriptor that has been with it for years . . . "The Valley of Friendliness." Located on the banks of the Iowa River Steamboat Rock offers its residents a quiet, safe place to live or raise a family. With its proximity to the Iowa River Greenbelt, there are plenty of outdoor activities including camping, fishing, hiking, biking, or tubing down the Iowa River.
Each September (Labor Day weekend) Steamboat celebrates it rich heritage with its annual community celebration, Rainsbarger Daze. Named after the Rainsbarger family and their colorful history, the celebration includes a cemetery theater bi-annually, omelet breakfast, a 5K run, fireworks, and several other activities.
