Welcome to the City of Avoca

Park

Avoca Park

Our Park is located at the south east corner of Avoca going east out of town on Highway 83. We have a wonderful walking trail, picnic shelters, soccer field and ball diamonds.

Avoca was established in 1869 when the Rock Island Railroad came through from Des Moines going to Council Bluffs. Our name came from a poem by Thomas Moore called "The Meeting of the Waters." This derived from an old Irish tale, "Vale of Avoca," meaning where the bright waters meet.

Avoca, IA is conveniently located at the junction of Interstate 80 and US Highway 59. Please click on all of our links at the left to see all the amenities that we offer.
