Nestled in the rolling hills of Eastern Iowa, Mt. Vernon is a community that blends small-town charm with modern convenience. Known for its historic downtown, vibrant arts scene, and family-friendly atmosphere, the town has become a fast-growing destination
for families in the Corridor. Now, with Spring Meadow Heights, Skogman Realty is proud to introduce a new development that offers homeowners the chance to build their dream home in this thriving community.

Why Choose Mt. Vernon? 

A Vibrant Downtown

Unlike many small towns, Mt. Vernon boasts a thriving, walkable Main Street filled with boutique shops, cozy coffeehouses, farm-to-table restaurants, and year-round community events. From the famous Chalk the Walk festival to the local farmers’ market and holiday celebrations, there’s always something happening in town.

Education and Culture at Your Doorstep

Mt. Vernon’s top-rated school district is a draw for families, while Cornell College, a private four-year liberal arts institution, enriches the community with cultural opportunities, live performances, and a vibrant student population. It’s a unique blend that gives Mt. Vernon a lively, intellectual feel you won’t find in other small towns.

Easy Access to Nature

Love the outdoors? You’ll be minutes away from Palisades-Kepler State Park, the Cedar River, and a growing network of local trails. Whether you enjoy kayaking, biking, hiking, or simply taking in the scenery, Mt. Vernon provides an active lifestyle surrounded by natural beauty.

Location, Location, Location

Perhaps the most compelling reason to choose Mt. Vernon is its position between Cedar Rapids and Iowa City. Mt. Vernon, located at the crossroads of Highway 30 and Highway 1, offers true balance between both metro areas. You’ll enjoy convenient access to major employers, healthcare, and shopping—without the congestion, traffic, or rapid sprawl of larger communities like North Liberty or Marion. Mt. Vernon strikes the perfect balance: the character of a small town, the vibrancy of a college community, and the convenience of the Corridor.
