Shell Rock is located two miles west off the Avenue Of The Saints in Northeast Iowa. This 4-lane highway (Highway 218), connects the Shell Rock area with Waterloo/Cedar Falls. The community is only 5 minutes west of Waverly on Highway 3, and 20 minutes Northwest of Waterloo/Cedar Falls.
Residents have the best of both worlds: the convenience of the big city nearby, but the ability to return to the comfort of the small town at the end of the day.
