Eden Park
Discover Eden Park in Columbus Junction
Eden Park is a 146 acre park donated by Donna Eden in 2011. Eden Park features mowed grass trails through two beautiful prairie sections separated by a stream valley with a low water crossing. A fluctuating wetland area to the north is home to amphibians, reptiles, and water loving birds.
Eden Park is home to a nature playscape, water bottle filling station/drinking fountain/dog watering station, picnic table, and seasonal portable toilet. Future plans include a picnic shelter.
The habitat consists of former ag ground enrolled in CRP, planted to a mix of cool and warm season grasses. There is also forest, two creeks and a wetland. Visitors can expect to see deer, turkey, pheasant, waterfowl and squrrels among other Iowa wildlife. At this time hunting is NOT allowed at Eden Park.
