A look at where we started and where we are today.

What was once the former Tindell Shoes building has been transformed into Professionals on Main and Stay Oelwein. It's been an incredible journey bringing new life to this historic downtown property, and we're proud of how far it has come.

While we still have plans for future improvements to the rear exterior, we're taking a moment to appreciate the progress.

And if you've ever wanted a downtown office with character, we currently have one office suite available for lease.

Hi ! We’ve officially created a dedicated page for the Airbnb side of our building Stay Oelwein.

Going forward, all updates, photos, announcements, and behind-the-scenes content for the upper-level stays will be shared there, so we’d love for you to give the page a follow!

Thank you all for following along and supporting this adventure from the very beginning. We’re getting close, and we can’t wait to welcome guests to downtown Oelwein soon!

Construction is officially complete!

A huge shoutout to AR General Construction, LLC for all of the hard work, craftsmanship, and dedication that helped bring this project to life.

We’re down to furniture, appliances, and a few finishing touches, then we’ll be ready to welcome you all to stayoelwein!

We cannot wait to show everyone the finished product. Stay tuned!

We’re getting VERY close!

After months of planning, construction, and bringing our vision to life, Professionals On Main is officially nearing the finish line and ready to showcase Stay Oelwein. We fully anticipate being ready to begin hosting guests by mid-July!

We decided to go ahead and make our listings live early so travelers, families, wedding guests, and professionals visiting Oelwein can begin viewing availability and planning ahead for summer stays.

You’ll notice there are currently limited photos posted; that’s intentional. We wanted to test interest and begin opening dates before revealing the finished spaces in full. The final touches are happening now, and we can’t wait to share the completed look very soon.

These downtown loft-style stays are located right in the heart of Main Street Oelwein and are being designed to feel modern, comfortable, and truly welcoming.

Check out our listings below and follow along as we get closer to opening day:

The front exterior at Professionals On Main is officially finished. We just have a little final cleaning on the doors and windows, but otherwise the outside is complete and we're thrilled with how it turned out.

Upstairs construction is on track to be completed by mid-June, and we're targeting a July 1 launch for our Airbnb rentals. Our website, stayoelwein.com, is coming along nicely and is expected to go live around the same time.

It's been exciting to watch this historic downtown space come back to life, and we can't wait to welcome guests from near and far to Oelwein.

More updates coming soon, we're getting close!

We’re getting close.

StayOelwein is officially in the final stages of construction, and it’s one of those phases where every time we walk through, something new is finished and the whole space feels more real.

If everything continues on track, we’re planning to begin taking bookings via Airbnb as early as July. We’ll keep you posted as we lock in dates.

One last peek with a photo update until we have professional photos ready to properly showcase the finished space.

Thanks for following along through the process! We’re excited to bring Main Street Overlook and The Downtown Retreat to Oelwein.

If you’ve been keeping an eye on the progress, drop a comment and let us know what you’re most looking forward to seeing when it’s complete.
