Square Nail | Colfax Historic Hotel Restoration

Welcome to the journey of bringing the historic Colfax Hotel back to life.

Located in the heart of Colfax, California, this landmark is undergoing an extraordinary restoration and we're documenting the story from the inside.

Follow along for behind-the-scenes access to the restoration, historic discoveries, craftsmanship, challenges, milestones, and the people working to give this remarkable building its next chapter.

The journey is being captured on film by award-winning documentary filmmaker Brandon Vedder of All Cut Up Films, preserving not only the transformation of the Colfax Hotel, but the history, people, and community surrounding it.

This is more than a renovation. It's a story of preservation, place, and what's possible when an old building gets another chance.
