About Balltown

Perched on the scenic bluffs of Dubuque County, Balltown is a quiet, tight-knit community known for its sweeping views of the Mississippi River Valley. Local life largely centers around Breitbach's Country Dining, Iowa's oldest restaurant, which has been serving homestyle meals since 1852. A short stroll down the road leads to blufftop overlooks with panoramic vistas reaching all the way into Wisconsin. Families here are part of the Western Dubuque Community School District, offering a classic rural lifestyle with rich history and peaceful country surroundings.
