Sycamore Bottoms - Johnson County
GPS Coordinates:
41.618009, -91.4974022
Management:
None listed
Directions:
At the south edge of Iowa City is the major intersection of Gilbert and U.S. 6, just east of the Iowa River. Turn south on Gilbert, away from downtown, and go about 1.5 miles to Sycamore St. on your left (east), at the south edge of the large body of water on your right. Go a little more than one half mile east on Sycamore until it bends sharply left. At this point, continue straight ahead on the paved drive, heading for the isolated apartment complex ahead. Park in the farthest east spaces of the apartments' lot. Sycamore Bottoms is to the southeast over the hill. Look for the grass path just off the parking lot.
