Story City Iowa is a very quaint and picturesque town located just north of Ames Iowa off of I-35. Once you arrive there you are greeted with beautiful parks, a nostalgic old downtown and fields of the color of Kelly green. But Story City has one really unique tourist attraction on the west side of town, and that attraction is the vintage Story City Carousel. The carousel dates back to 1913, and it is a beautifully preserved living mechanical artifact, that puts smiles on peoples faces. The old time ride is adorned with symbols of the American west and loaded with breathtaking hand carved horses. The carousel is a step back into a time within the confines of an Americana icon.
