Rebound Hospitality and Decorah Hotel Partners have scheduled a groundbreaking ceremony for Wednesday, September 21st, for the new hotel being built on the site of the former Bluffs Inn.
The project includes a 78-room Fairfield Inn and Suites on the property as well as two additional commercial sites that could house restaurants or commercial offices.
