The Iowa River dominates this landscape as it winds through Louisa County, shaping the development and geography around the city of Wapello. The river's influence is evident in the numerous oxbows and wetlands that dot the floodplain, including Muskrat Lake, Meyerholz Lake, and Keevers Lake. This area reflects a long history of rural settlement, characterized by a high density of family and community burial grounds such as the Wilson Farm Cem, Hardman Cem, and the Louisa County Farm Cem.
