About the lake and amenities
Lake Sundown is located just 5 miles east of Moravia, Iowa and is an EASY 90-minute drive from Des Moines or 2-hours from Iowa City. Lake Sun Down is truly one of Iowa's nicest, cleanest, hidden treasure private lakes!
This private lake is a short ten minute drive from the popular Lake Rathbun area, including "The Preserve Golf Course" and Honey Creek Resort and the "Honey Bear's" indoor water park. Guests can also reach the communities of Centerville or Albia in ten-minutes, or in 20-minutes be in Bloomfield, for its well-known Amish Community stores and craft fairs.
Additionally, a mere forty minutes away you'll find the "Sprint Car Capital of the World" in Knoxville as well as Tassel Ridge Winery in Leigton. We are also just under an hour from Pella, home of the popular Pella Tulip Festival and Lake Red Rock. In just over an hour, guests can check out the Rutledge (MO) Flea Market, one of the most established and popular markets of this sort in the country!
