Davenport sits along the Mississippi with a compact, walkable downtown, riverfront parks and a lively arts and music scene anchored by attractions like the Figge Art Museum — a great mix of coffee shops, breweries, live music and museums to keep multi-week stays interesting.
You’ll also have easy access to the rest of the Quad Cities (Moline/Bettendorf/Rock Island) for extra dining, pro sports and nightlife, and nearby Iowa City — about 55 miles away — if you want a bigger college-town scene for weekend trips.
