Decorah and related destinations

Bald eagles soar above limestone bluffs while the Upper Iowa River winds through this small college town with outsized Norwegian pride. The Vesterheim Museum displays immigrant treasures that would make Thor himself nod approvingly. Dunnings Spring Park offers a waterfall that appears transplanted from a fjord, complete with cliff-side trails for the sure-footed. Pedal the 11-mile Trout Run Trail loop, where fly fishermen cast into streams with monastic concentration. Ice Cave Hill Park features exactly what it promises – a cave where ice forms in summer and melts in winter, defying logical explanation. Downtown cafes serve krumkake alongside craft beer from local microbreweries, fueling conversations about Luther College's latest musical performance.

Hotel Winneshiek

Hotel Winneshiek

10/10 Excellent
"Everything about our stay was top notch! The hotel is absolutely gorgeous, spotless and well maintained. Our room was clean, bed was comfortable and the room temp was perfect. The breakfast was simple yet very tasty. The breakfast sandwiches were so good - very different from most hotels! The absolute best part of our stay was the staff. The check in was smooth and they were so kind and thorough. The morning we checked out, our car wouldn't start! It was -10 out and our battery died. We had to be at the college in 30 minutes. The staff called in help and within 10 min a kind gentleman helped jumpstart us! They truly went above and beyond and we will tell everyone about our experience! Thank you so much to the staff there. When we are back we will only be staying at Hotel Winneshiek!!"
