If the dome is open when you visit, you have to check out the beauty of the interior. You can buy a Starbucks drink and sit in the dome, just enjoying the music and historical architecture. The grounds, gardens, and stables are also unbelievable!

The historical hotel and the newer casino combine to create an awesome attraction. I love going to the casino to people-watch and play the penny slots. It’s a good time.

They now have over 40 exotic species. There are some awesome experiences you can purchase with elephants, giraffes, kangaroo, etc, or you can go a driving safari tour without leaving your car. Every safari or animal encounter purchase includes the right to hang out on the ranch for a picnic lunch/dinner, so stay a while if you can!

The most popular kids attraction in the area, and a great way to spend long days while cooking off and burning some energy. I can get deeply discounted day passes and leave them at the cabin for you, with a couple weeks notice.

The lake has everything a typical lake, state park, campground, or marina has, but with the added seclusion and untouched beauty that most recreation areas don’t possess. Start with a drive to the marina to feed the gigantic tame fish, and see where your curiosity takes you from there!

This place is the ultimate entertainment location for kids. Besides the bowling lanes, there is skating, laser tag, bounce houses, affordable food, and much more. I love how big the space is and how friendly the staff are.

Food scene
Delicious made-from-scratch Italian. The Gnocchi is particularly amazing. The wine tasting experience is also very enjoyable. They are known for their wine, but they are launching into the national scene with their bourbon.

Try a sampler platter and have fun sampling every sauce. Great beer selection too. My favorites include the sweet potato fries (with their cinnamon-honey dipping sauce), brisket, and creamy coleslaw.

Amazing ice cream, coffee, and atmosphere. My favorite thing is to get a mixture of caffeine and ice cream with an affogato, and then enjoy hanging out in a back room booth.

My favorite coffee shop and bakery. It’s worth the 25 minute drive, especially if you include some Amish farm stops, a sit-down meal in Salem, antique shopping, trail hiking, or railroad museum tours.

This is the classic local burger joint, where everything is made the right way with locally raised meat and sold at very reasonable prices. I like getting an order to go and eating at Paoli Community Park right down the road.

A great place to get unique grocery items, sit down for a deli-style meal, pick up a craft beer, or shop for locally made home goods, local produce, and unique gifts. There is always a bold pot of coffee brewing in the back, so grab a cup and relax. The whole store is very welcoming.

The best, most unique, ice cream around. It started as a teenage girl’s after-school business and has grown into a must see place. Enjoy charming Orleans, IN while eating your ice cream.
