Ida Grove, Iowa - Castles, Pizza Hut Island The town of Ida Grove has a lot of buildings built that look like castles. They were supposedly all built by, or for, a fellow named Byron Godbersen, who founded GOMACO, a company there that makes road building equipment. Also, I believe it was Ida Grove that used to have a Pizza Hut which was located on an island in the middle of a small lake or pond. [Don Fraysier, 10/18/1998]
