Buffalo Bill Cody Homestead
The boyhood home of Buffalo Bill Cody, government Scout and Wild
West Showman, is located in the broad valley of the Wapsipinicon
River, a short 20 minute drive from I-80. The 1847 farmhouse, entered
in the National Registry of Historic Places, was built by Isaac
Cody, Buffalo Bill's father, of native limestone and contains walnut
floors and trim.
The Homestead has been restored and furnished with items typical
of the mid-19th century. Cody Homestead is nestled in scenic hillside
overlooking the rich Iowa prairie where buffalo and long horn cattle
graze on the land surrounding the house. The Cody Homestead is comfortably
air conditioned in the summer.
