It is truly amazing to realize that not far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life that there exists the perfect getaway. More than just a diversion, the Decorah area, located in the Northeast corner of Iowa in Winneshiek County, is truly an idyllic escape. Or some even say a hidden treasure. 

Scenic and historic Winneshiek County has a population of 21,310 and boasts Luther College, a four-year liberal arts school, and Northeast Iowa Community College, which offers an array of training programs for local businesses.

Nestled in the midst of towering bluffs and beautiful scenery, is a community that charms and amazes those who visit. Thriving and quaint shops fill the downtown areas, wonderful restaurants tempt the palate, cultural and historic venues teach and entertain, and of course recreational opportunities abound. A way of life that many fear was lost and some never knew existed is right next door.
