Rediscovering the Past at the Neptune Spring

This wasn't a surprise discovery. More of an “oh, hey, it's been a while.” As in more than 100 years type of a while. We always knew that the remnants from the old Neptune Spring — one of the four mineral springs on the West Baden Springs Hotel property where guests would "take the waters" in the early 1900s — were lurking beneath, and could possibly be unearthed with a little digging. Well, a few weeks ago we went digging and unearthed some more history. An aerial view of the old Neptune Spring before the water and mud were removed, and (below) part of the network of walking paths that were covered in soil and grass for several decades.

Neptune Spring Rediscovery: Digging a Little Deeper

When we broke the news last month about re-discovering the Neptune Spring on the West Baden Springs Hotel property, the response on Facebook was overwhelming. 7,000+ likes, loves and “wow”s. 3,000+ shares. Nearly 900 comments. We received a lot of questions about it, and today we hopefully have a few more answers as we continue working to revive this historical site. Chuck Franz (Vice President of Cook Group, French Lick Resort’s parent company) and Justin Harris (French Lick Resort’s Director of Facilities and a licensed engineer) have been working closely on the project, and here’s what they can tell us about this 130-year-old spring that has been freshly unearthed. Some of the marble and glazed brick from the bottom of the spring house basin is still remarkably well intact after 100+ years of being exposed to the elements. Q: Is the spring still flowing? Justin Harris: “That’s something we were curious to see

What's Coming in the New Year? 7 Things to Look Forward to in 2023

New year, new resort! (That’s how the saying goes, right?) We’re already getting jazzed up about turning the calendar to 2023 at French Lick Resort, because there’s a lot to look forward to in the new year. Here’s an early peek at 7 of them: Concerts, Concerts and More Concerts We know you love ‘em. So we’re giving you more of ‘em. You can expect to see a significant expansion of live shows in 2023, and we’re wasting no time getting started. You can still grab tickets for Lonestar on January 21, and then it’s time to rock out with Bret Michaels on February 11 (only a few select seats remaining). That’s just the start.
