The Grotto in the winter
The Grotto in the winter
A portion of the Grotto of the Redemption looms ahead, this monument is enormous and incredible. The largest accumulation of rocks and exotic gems in the world. #localgem
The Gaudi like concept reminds me of Barcelona! A neat find in the middle of nowhere in Iowa!
The largest man made grotto on Earth, and considered to be the "Eighth Wonder of the World", this particular scene depicts Paradise Lost, in the book of Genesis. #localgem

Friendly, clean and comfortable. A little outdated but doesn’t distract from the Arya. Make sure to say to Howie the hotel lab. He’s the best part of the stay!
