Blue Grass is a small city in Scott County in the Quad Cities metro area of eastern Iowa, where the Mississippi River bluffs and the surrounding agricultural plain meet the urban edge of Davenport. Scott County's position along the Mississippi gives it a distinct character from central Iowa's flat prairie — the river bluffs, timber-edged creek valleys, and rolling terrain create more varied riding country than the flat fields further west.
Lesson programs are available at facilities in the Blue Grass area, serving the equestrian community of Scott County and the broader Quad Cities region. The Mississippi River corridor and the surrounding eastern Iowa countryside provide a scenic setting for horse keeping, and the Quad Cities' regional size ensures a reasonable network of equine veterinary and farrier services. For riders in Scott County and the Illinois side of the Quad Cities, the Blue Grass area offers accessible instruction in a rural eastern Iowa setting.
