Here’s a Top Ten list that could come in handy when celebrating Sweetest Day this
Saturday, but you really don't have to wait for a special occasion. At French Lick Resort, we can make your stay as sweet
as you want, any time. Here’s how.
1) Flowers in Your Room
Impress your special someone with a fresh bouquet of
flowers. Our talented staff can create a beautiful floral
arrangement and deliver it to your door at
the appropriate time or have it in the room when you arrive.
2)
Take
a Hike
We have five miles of scenic trails to stroll together
hand-in-hand; most are rated “easy.” Bring the binoculars to
scout for birds, owls and deer, which are plentiful in the valley. When you’re
ready to return to civilization go directly to #3.
3)
Couples
Massages
Plan some “together time” at one of our luxurious spas.
Choose from a variety of massage therapies and share the experience. Choices
include aromatherapy, sacred stone and Swedish massages.
4)
Romantic
Dinner for Two
Several resort restaurants offer exceptional meals served in luxurious surroundings. At French Lick Springs Hotel, 1875: The Steakhouse is one of the finest dining
establishments in the state. For a bit more casual vibe, take your honey to the
Power Plant Bar & Grill for tempting food and live music on the weekends. 
At West Baden Springs Hotel, it's the ultimate dining experience at Table One. At this
private chef’s table, you can watch as your meal is prepared. But with the
flip of a switch, your table becomes secluded for an intimate dinner. Sinclair’s Restaurant exudes timeless elegance while Ballard’s in
the Atrium offers a breath-taking dining experience under the dome.
5)
Carriage
Ride
Plan a romantic carriage ride for two after dinner. Select
from one of our scenic routes and settle in for an enjoyable 25-minute trip
around the grounds.
6)
Listen
to Live Music
West Baden Springs Hotel offers live music five nights a
week; Wednesday through Sunday. Enjoy listening to piano, harp,
light pop and sultry late night jazz. Craving some romantic together-time? Take a romantic
stroll through our gardens.
7)
In-Room
Dining
It doesn’t matter if you’d like a late night snack or a
relaxed breakfast in bed, our staff will be more than happy to prepare your meal
any way and any time you want it.
8)
Hit
the Alley
Ever go bowling on a date?
Here’s a chance to relive those memories at Pluto’s Alley. With six lanes
available and fresh, hot pizza just around the corner, (not to mention adult
libations), you can “spare” some time to strike out together.
9)
Get
Your Game On
Deal yourself in for fun at our 51,000-square-foot
Vegas-style casino with 37 live-dealer tables, a high-limit gaming area, slots, video poker and a VIP lounge.
Enjoy live casino entertainment each weekend.
10) Ride the Trolley
Bring your romantic stay to close by riding the "World's Shortest Trolley Line." The restored trolley provides a romantic one-mile journey between the two resort hotels. And remember, now's the perfect time to make your
reservations for that next romantic get-away.
