Slide 1 of 8
The Field of Dreams Movie Site is a must-stop for anyone who loves the sentimental 1989 movie. The house tour is informative and interesting. We had an excellent tour guide who provided details of the filming and behind-the-scenes tidbits. We came to watch our grandson playing in a Field of Dreams baseball tournament. It’s truly a magical place. I will always remember playing catch with my grandson on the Field of Dreams. It’s out of the way but well worth the visit!
The family and I loved it. Well it was more me than them. I grew up watching this movie countless times. The ownership has changed a few times. It is now own by a nonprofit organization. So the money you pay goes directly to preserving the sight. The tours like the movie says, is 20 dollars per person. I loved every moment. Bucket list item complete.
Paula was amazing! She was our tour guide and she had all the details and all the facts. The house still has some very nostalgic pieces from the movie, the field has this feeling to it that is indescribable and the grounds are so beautifully taken care of. If you grew up watching Field of Dreams like I did, a visit is a must. I was able to spend a moment chatting with Paula after our tour was over she shared some personal sweet memories with me as I did with her. She said a few thing that stuck with me but one thing was about how this movie spoke things into the future. If you have not been don't sleep on this spot, it is worth the feelings you feel I promise.
Such a beautiful place to visit. Love the movie, so this was amazing to see in person. We went when there was a pediatric cancer fundraiser going on so they was cool to see. The food is tasty, drinks are unique to the baseball theme and the store is full of awesome apparel and items. We didn’t get to tour the house because they were booked.
Recently visited the Field of Dreams movie site, and it was such a great experience! I was almost too young to remember the movie, but now I definitely want to go back and watch it. Touring the house was really special — they show scenes from the movie filmed right there, which helps you make a real connection to the place. My favorite part was that it’s dog-friendly! We brought our golden retriever onto the field for some photos on the bases and even played a little fetch in the outfield — such a fun memory. The staff was all wonderful and welcoming. We happened to visit during a fall festival weekend, which made it even better. They’re in the process of building a big baseball and entertainment complex for youth sports, so I’d recommend visiting now before it really blows up with tourists. But it’s great to see them expanding to keep the magic of this place alive. After all… if they build it, you know they will come. ⚾️
Oh what a fabulous experience. Everything was exactly as you would expect. The house tour was wonderful.The tour guide professional, funny and knowledgeable. Running the bases was an absolute joy and dream come true. An actual actor from the movie gave us insights to the filming and the actors. Highly recommend, made my heart feel good.
Wonderful surprise stop - definitely meant to be as it was the last book I packed for this move/road trip. Beautiful land amazing location, thank you W.P Kinsella for the story… I only wish my son could have been with me to play catch with, (Oct. 13’25). Lovely friendly knowledgeable staff, thank you!
his was on the bucket list. We took the house tour with a wonderful guide and then played catch and took some swings with other visitors. One of the ghosts was available for pictures and to answer any questions. And what trip would be complete without walking in and out of the corn field to disappear.

This place was awesome. I took my dad as he is an avid collector. He hasn't been since it first opened and I have never been. Seeing his face light up once we entered made the 5 hour trip worth it. So much information and things to see. The staff at the gift shop was amazingly friendly. They even had a couple of display areas for kids to play. For me, my favorite part was the section with all of the old western figures and the old westerns on the TV.
Just a great history of farm toys and the companies that make them. Self guided tour takes about 1 hour. More if you read everything. I enjoyed how big some of the toys were. If you have kids they will enjoy it.
This is an awesome museum especially if you are into farm models and tractors. Many makes are represented here and there are multiple cases filled with models. The museum extends over two floors with loads of information and videos to watch. Don't miss visiting this place if you are close. You will need at least an hour to see everything.
So many toys... so much fun... you have alot of toys to look at... highly recommend
Every so often, we find not just a really interesting museum, but interesting people. Bernie Kluesner met us when we entered, and gave us the most amazing tour. He gave fabulous context and personal stories of farming that really bring the passion for farming and the toys related to it to life. Bernie is also a master woodworker, with his own exhibit that any woodworker will appreciate. Bernie really made the museum special, and I truly hope Dyerville realizes just what a gem that is both h8m, and the museum. Much love, Bernie! Mike, Karen and Tom
Great place for tractor enthusiasts, young & old! As a mom of 3 kids I appreciated that the toy tractors were all behind glass making seeing easy but touching hard. On each of the 2 levels there is a dedicated children's play area when a break from looking is needed. We especially enjoyed the small farm displays throughout history. It was fun to find the "eye spy" items.
A little pricey for a large family but we all liked it. There is a lot to see.
A museum for agricultural/farm toys with over 10,000 pieces!

This church is so beautiful. Grab the brochure and read about all the lovely symbols and statues. Stay for Mass; it was a wonderful liturgy!
Extremely beautiful Catholic Church. Definitely will be back to going in it again in a few weeks. Had Mass on Saturday
It cannot be overstated how worthy this church is of a detour. The art, architecture, organ... all sublime
Such a beautiful church! Never been a church person but was amazed at all the stained glass and artwork throughout the church. If your in town this is worth stopping and taking a look. No one will ask for donations to the church, there is a guest book to sign if you want. Visitors are welcome to come see this beautiful church.
Absolutely stunning church, reminded me a lot of my hometown church, lots of similarities to St. Mary's catholic church in St. Benedict, Kansas
While on a motorhome trip, we just happened to see the turnoff for the Basilica on a Sunday. It was only 2 miles from the highway in a super cute small town, Dyersville, in Iowa. We entered the church and made it in time for the last half of the mass. The Basilica is like nothing I have seen before. It is magnificent! The congregation were welcoming, the music was beautiful, and we felt fortunate to have experienced all of it.
As a Catholic, I stopped to make a visit. In other words, just wanted some quiet time. I'm from out of town and I thought the church would be locked but it was open and I am very appreciative of that.
Absolutely beautiful place! Got some much needed peace, and spiritual healing. Got exactly what I was looking for actually. The outside is stunning architecturally. The inside is gorgeous as well. I could be more descriptive, but there are no words to capture the beauty of this place, and the peace you will feel within.

Great experience! Our guide, Sue, was so knowledgeable and kind. The tour had a nice balance of learning and time to look closely at the collections! Highly recommend.
Wife loved it, amazing at how many dolls they were there. We have had a great time on our visit.
Great informative tour. Lovely mansion and doll collection of modern dolls. Right in downtown
Beautiful home that transports you back in time.
Rang doorbell twice, and waited for 10 minutes. No one answered but sign said they were open.
Visiting Saturday October 19, hours posted 1 - 4. Rang doorbell twice, no one answered and it was after 1.
Loved this olace, so many nice dolls
Great tour with a lot of Dyersville history

Nice, nice, nice stuff. Friendly hosts, too! Lots of toys. Please remember, the items in my pictures will be gone eventually, or the prices may change... I posted a picture of a specials board at a restaurant, and someone was outraged when the price for Friday Night Fish had gone up a dollar after SIX years!
Plaza Antique Mall is a treasure trove of eclectic finds! Every booth offers something unique—from vintage furniture to quirky collectibles. It’s well-organized, fun to browse, and perfect for anyone who loves uncovering hidden gems!
This is a fantastic antique mall. I think we spent at least 2 hours looking around. We found lots of cool things, but only bought a couple of them. I bought a cool kerosene lamp and my wife found a glass creamer to add to her collection. We will be back!
Farm toy heaven. Big ,small, new and old. Many other items. There is not 1 person that could not find something that was neat to see and or buy. Worker are so nice. Very clean. The video is of the upstairs. All toys. More toys mixed on the main floor.
This place has some of everything! Farm toys, Iowa memorabilia, Pyrex, beautiful glass, vintage toys, movie and sports collectables, seasonal decor, you name it, it's here. The staff is friendly and wonderfully helpful.
When you find this place the frontage is done like an old movie theatre inside is two floors of things to browse top floor is model vehicles great if you are into die cast cars and farm vehicles. Downstairs is more antique bases with lots of cabinets with smaller item and then a lot of sections with bigger things Prices not outrageous and possibly more keen than at other stores we have visited recently. They have a not for sale centre piece with four classic cars and petrol pumps signs etc. loved the cobra powered ford fairlane fastback. Well worth some time to browse. Was a nice corvette parked outside too...
Lots to take in! Nice selection of antiques and decor. Seen some modern day things for sale that I could find at big box stores but with higher prices. Yikes! Stick to the antiques and vintage treasures and this place will have you coming back more and more.
I could spend hours upon hours just looking around. This is one of my favorite antique stores! I always find something!

Really good small town place to eat. We showed up with a baseball team in the middle of a Saturday afternoon for lunch and they were easily available to accommodate us all. Drinks were cold and it had plenty of room to spread out and not be cramped. Food was good, hot and fresh. Family had a burger, chicken wrap, and chicken tenders. All were excellent. Others in the group had different things and all seemed very pleased. Bonus is there is a huge Field of Dreams mural across the street to take pictures. Definitely would recommend stopping by here if in the area.
Great place Sleepy lil town so we chose this, as nothing bf else was open at 1245hours. We were glad we did Fresh fruit, no nasty old oil. If we are passing, we will be back.
First, let me say that we were in town for a baseball tournament, and had 9 boys and their parents. We were 90% of the people in the bar. We ordered our food at 11:50am and didn't get it until 2:20pm. The man that appeared to be in charge did not communicate with anyone about the delays. The two young girl waitresses did the best they could but what a disaster. Looking into the kitchen there was one guy cooking, about 4 burgers at a time. Food was disgraceful, picture shows how big the burger was. Should have put a closed sign on the door because they couldn't handle any more business. No apologies were made by management, no offer to discount food.
We had a good service from a lovely young lady. We just stopped in for a quick beverage. The menu looked good, if we ever make it back, we will have to try something.
Our server, Addison, was phenomenal! To be honest, I hope she is your highest paid server there. We were there with friends and our kids from out of state for a baseball tournament and we could not say enough good things about her! She should be training every server you hire. Thank you again! Oh, yeah, the food was great as well!
Stopped here on the day of the Field of Dreams concert with my mom. We walked in through the side entrance and were greeted by a middle-aged blonde woman. There was also a younger guy with brown hair working behind the bar, but he never acknowledged us the entire 20 minutes we were there. It took a couple of minutes for the woman to bring over menus, which was fine—we understood she was busy with her other tables. She asked what we wanted to drink, but since we weren’t sure yet, we told her we’d need a second to look at a drink menu or at least find out if they had Pepsi or Coke products. Instead of waiting, she dropped the menus and walked away before we even had a chance to order drinks. She then called over from across the room that she’d be back after checking on another table (which seemed to be people she knew), but she never returned. A man coming from the kitchen noticed us sitting with menus and waiting, and he asked the server to come over. She said she would, but again, she never did. After waiting a few more minutes, my mom and I decided to leave. We ended up going to 7Hills instead—and I can’t recommend that place enough. Fantastic staff and service, absolutely amazing food, and such a great atmosphere. 10000% better experience!
We were in Dyersville 8/13-8/17 we stayed in an air BNB across the street we ate lunch there a couple of times. The food was great Amy was a great waitress .We would also like to thank Dan from the bottom of our hearts who got Amys husband Jesse to take us to the Cedar Rapids Airport to pick up a rent a car because my son hit a deer the night before. We would highly recommend this bar to anyone going to Dyersville.
Monday's pulled pork (inhouse smoked) is absolutely delicious. Serve yourself from the buffet; salad, soup, summer salads, and homemade pineapple upside- down cake with whipped cream. Smart choice to have a bite in this small eatery.
