About Holiday Lake

Holiday Lake is a quiet lakeside neighborhood tucked into the rolling farmland of Poweshiek County, about eight miles north of Brooklyn. Waterfront homes, cozy cabins, and wooded lots wind along the shoreline, creating a relaxed residential pocket surrounded by open country. The tree-lined coves and calm water offer a scenic, tucked-away setting among the surrounding fields.

Life here naturally centers on the water. Warm months bring pontoon rides, fishing from private docks, and weekend cookouts with neighbors, while the colder seasons offer a quiet, slow-paced retreat. Residents make the quick drive into Brooklyn for schools, groceries, and local dining, keeping daily necessities close at hand. For anyone looking for waterfront living in central Iowa, Holiday Lake provides an easygoing, close-knit place to settle down.
