Council Bluffs and related destinations

Across the Missouri River from Omaha sits a city where railroad history comes alive at the Union Pacific Railroad Museum, with interactive exhibits that delight train buffs. The Historic General Dodge House showcases the life of a transcontinental railroad pioneer. Casino lights brighten the riverfront, where entertainment venues offer shows without gambling pressure. Summer brings outdoor concerts at Stir Cove and Westfair Amphitheatre. The quirky Squirrel Cage Jail captivates visitors with its rotating cell design—a 19th-century innovation both ingenious and slightly mad. Families can explore RailsWest Railroad Museum's vintage locomotives and visit the nearby zoo for a perfect day trip.

My Place Hotel - Council Bluffs/Omaha East, IA

10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean and comfortable. Great bedding. The hotel does not provide dish soap, frying pans, cutlery, or glassware, but a toaster is provided. Great mini kitchen. Just be prepared to bring your own kitchen supplies. Hotel was quiet, laundry is reasonably priced at $1.50 per cyle, machines worked well. Kind staff at all hours of the day. I’d stay here again. "
