French Lick and neighboring West Baden Springs grew into a fashionable resort destination in the early 20th century, when wealthy visitors traveled by train to drink and bathe in the area’s mineral springs. Today, the restored French Lick Springs Hotel and the West Baden Springs Hotel, whose famous domed atrium was once called the eighth wonder of the world, are the heart of a resort that includes a casino, spas and championship golf. The town is also known as the hometown of basketball legend Larry Bird.

French Lick is about two hours from Indianapolis and Louisville and farther from Chicago or Cincinnati, mostly on two-lane roads through the hills. French Lick Municipal Airport is just a few miles from the resort, making it easy to fly private for a golf weekend, a spa getaway or a corporate retreat. Visitors play the Pete Dye Course, which has hosted professional championships, explore the forests and lakes of southern Indiana and ride the scenic railway.
