We went there for my birthday and looked forward to using the whirlpool tub. We turned it on and…read morethe water was dirty and smelled. We turned on the jets and there was a brown film on the water and tub. We called and they came the next day and said that they fixed it. We ran the water it started out okay but then turned brown again and when we turned the jets on it turned brown again. We left a day early. They showed up while we were packing and we let them know we were leaving a day early. They simply said they were sorry and would give us a 20% discount and that was it. We were very disappointed that we didn't even get an email from any of the owners talking about our experience. Very disappointed and won't be going back

This is a 'mom and pop' business, only two cabins on the property, so you know you are getting good quality. Communication from the start is seamless. There were no hidden fees. We got a full list of EVERYTHING in the cabin, which honestly, we didn't need to bring more than a new pack of clothes and a toothbrush! The cabin was immaculate. The owners apologized for not having as much decorations up during the pandemic to keep it safe, which is cute, but I thought it looked great regardless. We opted in to have a steak dinner for two for $25. It came with two bacon wrapped steaks for us to cook ourselves, corn, potatoes, rolls, fruit, cheesecake & drinks. What a steal!!! The cabins are not super close together so privacy is good. There are some hiking trails nearby. The owners are really intentional with bringing nature to you - they have a salt lick for deer & a bird feeder. Everything is very well-thought out!

Concrete blocks with names written in marker and smells of a musty basement, but the wine flows and the entertainment is like no other. The wine likely is whatever is on sale at Walmart, but I promise it doesn't matter. The bartender, Trina, will make sure you have one hell of a time. She may sit at the piano and play a little song, tell some jokes, or pose you for photo shoots. I've been a couple times now and it's always a great time! If you're in the area, it's a must stop at place!

I don't even know if we got her real name. You get a wine glass and 5 tastes for $12. I think I ended up trying 7 because there were I few I didn't like so she switched them out which was really nice. They do not make any wines themselves. You are just trying various wines which at first was a bummer but it was nice to try some new ones I hadn't had before. We had 2 dry wine people and 2 sweet wine people and they had a lot for us to try. This place is downstairs from an Inn. It's a little dark as it's the basement but once you get used to it it's not bad. You feel like you are in a wine cellar. The only bad thing is there's no restroom. I don't know how or why but there really isn't one you can use. Not fun when you are drinking but luckily the courthouse had theirs open.

Billie Creek Village was a surprising hidden gem and a step back in history for us. I wanted to…read morevisit a couple covered bridges in Parke County and stumbled across this charming recreated 19th century village. There are three covered bridges in Billie Creek. One of the three bridges only accommodates foot traffic, while the other two are passable by car. Two of the bridges were relocated to the village from other parts of Parke County. The village itself is made up of about 20 historic buildings that have been relocated to the site. We were amazed that we could walk through the buildings and find period furnishings. I particularly like the information describing the history and inhabitants of the buildings. We saw two churches, a schoolhouse, log cabin and doctor's office. The school house contains its original furnishings and many books. The original modest home of Indiana's 10th governor, Joseph A. Wright, is on the site, complete with law books and a spinning wheel. We bought cookies at the Gaebler's Cafe, which also serves coffee and sandwiches. You can buy sodas and candy at the General Store. Behind the barn are Billy goats. There is a Civil War era house on the grounds, also. Restrooms are available and clean. Parking is free. Not all the buildings are wheelchair accessible, but several are. Billie Creek is a great place to bring kids to learn about early settlements in Indiana. Admission is free, but they do ask for donations to help with maintenance. Wear good walking shoes. I think they have vendors and other activities at the village during the Covered Bridge Festival.

One of the first things I noticed when I began traveling to Putnam County regularly during my…read morefather's illness and after his death was that Rockville, Indiana is not actually far from Putnam County. While Rockville is mostly known for the Covered Bridge Festival, it's also home to Billie Creek Village. Billie Creek is smack dab in Parke County. It takes its name from the nearby Williams Creek. It's a 70-acre history museum and park with around 38 historical buildings/structures and an abundance of antiques and such. Buildings are mostly mid-19th century to early 20th century. The 1913 Schoolhouse is considered a highlight. You'll likely think of a place like Conner Prairie when you visit, though truthfully I thought more of a place like Chesterfield (minus the alternative spirituality focus). There are three covered bridges (all on the National Register of Historic Places) Billie Creek has an interesting history. It has closed at least a couple times due to financial issues. It was purchased in 2022 and is currently free to visit the buildings (though there are events that do have a price and there's a general store and a cafe in the Gaebler building now). I will note that you can visit from 8am-4pm daily, however, the cafe is 6am-2pm. Buildings include an 1830s cabin, the general store, a village bank (was a 19th century post-office), a blacksmith shop, Burr Mill, Chataqua Pavilion, a doctor's office, Governor Wright Home, a maple syrup camp, refreshment stand (built in 1911), St. Joseph's Catholic Church (built in 1886), Union Baptist Church, and quite a bit more. There are events throughout the year - the website has been redeveloped (I submitted the new link) and is quite nicely done with the schedule. Is accessibility perfect? Definitely not. These are historic buildings and accessibility simply isn't always workable. However, it's better than expected. This is also a more casual experience. Don't go expecting all the scenes and scenarios and cosplay that you'll find at Conner Prairie - this is a historic village that for me is more relaxing, more immersive, and pretty amazing to experience in Rockville (which is, in itself, a beautiful area). If you're visiting the area, Billie Creek is a great stop along with the area's covered bridges and Raccoon Lake not too far away. For kids on summer vacation, this is definitely worth a stop!

Turkey Run Inn is, as you can probably guess, one of the state park inns. Located inside the Turkey…read moreRun State Park grounds not far from the main entrance, Turkey Run Inn is one of the smaller inns with a relatively modest 61 rooms in the main lodge. Turkey Run Inn definitely pulls off the rustic lodge vibe with a heavy woods decor. There's a full service dining room, Narrows Restaurant, and five buildings with cabin rooms along with five separate cabins. The inn also has more than 5,500 square-feet of meeting space. This was my primary reason for being here, though as I am a government-appointee to one of Indiana's boards (Trails Advisory) we lingered for most of the day and really explored the place. The inn has an indoor heated pool, though it was closed today. It does have some adaptive equipment for those with disabilities. There's also a gift shop here that I found actually quite nice. I ended up buying a Turkey Run State Park refrigerator magnet. There's a cool lounge area, again very rustic, with couches, rocking chairs, games, television, a fireplace (not used if the temp is over 60), and public restrooms. There's a covered veranda with rocking chairs available on the second floor. They have a unique game room, Gobbler's Arcade, open 24-hours (there are exceptions). It has video games, vending machines, a ping pong table. Satellite TV is available, and despite being quite rural there's complimentary wi-fi that worked throughout my visit. I ate at the restaurant upon my arrival. The menu's fairly basic, however, it should satisfy most. I ordered a simple burger with chips and an unsweetened iced tea. The bill came in at about $14. Because I was there with a group, people sort of knew my presence. People were friendly, and the server in the restaurant was quite nice. I did get my always desired refill. I appreciated the front-desk person as she helped me figure out directions - I'd gotten quite lost going to Turkey Run, but had no issues getting back home. The food was good, but nothing stand-out. I'd probably go a bit more experimental next time. I believe they usually go buffet, but I got there sort of close to the end of lunch hour. Still, they were quite hospitable. The Inn has a very nice concrete ramp at the main entrance. There are elevators and lifts as available. This is a very historic building, so accessibility isn't perfect. The lounge area notes per signage that the floor may have dips, etc. (Trust me, it does. Walk/roll carefully). The Inn does have accessible room options. This includes toilet guardrails and wheelchair accessibility. It is pretty basic, but it works. I did find some of the doors a bit heavy. While I found the drive obnoxious, the reward is quite nice with a truly lovely state park. I could easily see myself spending a weekend getaway here. It's also in Parke County (think covered bridges), so lots to do and see here.
