2. French Lick: home to one of the most charming & fun romantic getaways in Indiana

French Lick may be a surprise entry among the most romantic getaways in Indiana, but this small town has a cool resort that’s great for couples seeking a self-contained experience in a comparatively secluded location. 

French Lick Springs Hotel, part of the greater French Lick Resort, offers elegant accommodations and a variety of activities couples can enjoy, such as gambling at the onsite casino or unwinding at the resort’s indulgent spa. 

There’s also a charming town to explore, complete with a family-friendly train ride that rolls through the nearby Hoosier National Forest, which also features scenic trails for hiking.

Fun fact: French Lick was originally the site of natural sulfur springs, which have since disappeared. Obviously, however, the resort survived and now thrives.
