Plan an UNforgettable getaway in Council Bluffs with our trip planner! As you browse the site, look for the pin icon to save things to do, places to eat, events to attend, and more. Once you'er done pinning, you can view, email, and share your trip plans.
To celebrate National Travel & Tourism Week, we take a trip down memory lane to explore how things started and how they're going now. This is a fun opportunity to see how Council Bluffs has grown and developed over the years!
Thank you to Richard Warner with the Historical Society of Pottawattamie County for providing the historical photos included in this blog! Check out their website for stories about CB's past. Make sure you check out their podcast "Accidentally Historic."
