connection between a building and water as exists between the Holiday Shores Motel and the mighty Mississippi River.
The Holiday Shores sits directly on the west bank of the Upper Mississippi in McGregor, Iowa, not just overlooking but practically overhanging the main river channel. There isn't another site like it from Minneapolis
to New Orleans. The historic city of McGregor,

metropolitan area." The area offers antique and speciality shops, great restaurants, boating, hiking, camping and
all sorts of family entertainment. Northeast
