Millions of dollars spent on renovations, mineral springs known for their healing powers, and "nostalgic accommodations with world-class amenities" make this resort "the spot of many memory-making visits." The two-hour drive from Indianapolis shows off the natural beauty of each season, and once guests arrive they can "stroll shaded walkways amid lush gardens of colorful flowers." Originally opened in 1845, a visit here is a little like "going back in time," yet with all the modern-day amenities, plus a European spa where you can svisit the famous gazebo housing the Pluto mineral springs.
