Decker Hotel And Bar

119 S Main St, Maquoketa, IA 52060, USA

The Decker Hotel, also known locally as 'The Decker House,' dates back to 1875 and is considered haunted. The main legend centers around a former owner or long-term resident named 'Charlie' or similar, who is said to occupy one of the upstairs rooms. Guests report typical poltergeist activity: items moved, doors opening/closing, noises, and occasionally seeing an older male figure. The bar area also reputedly hosts some spiritual energy, possibly from past patrons.
