Anytime my family and I want a quick weekend away from everything, we head to French Lick, Indiana. The French Lick Springs Hotel has so many fun things to do, we are never bored during our stay.

What's so Special About French Lick, Indiana?

French Lick has a population of less than 2,000, so you probably wouldn't expect very much from it. There is no Walmart or big box store, so it doesn't seem like an ideal place for visitors at first glance. But once you've stayed at the French Lick Resort, you quickly see what makes this small town in Indiana very special.

 Bowling & Arcade Fun at Pluto’s Alley

Downstairs at the French Lick Springs Hotel, challenge each other on six bowling lanes, go wild in the arcade with video games, foosball, air hockey, and more, then treat yourselves at Pluto’s Pizzeria. I love the calzones.
