French Lick Springs Hotel - A Historic Health Resort!

Established by a doctor in 1845, the iconic French Lick Springs Hotel was built as a health resort. It drew people from far and wide who wanted to partake of the mineral waters (called “Pluto Water”) that naturally emanated from the sulfur springs in the area. Later bottled and sold nationally, the mineral spring water was desirable because it “cleansed” the body’s digestive system, and soaking in it helped alleviate stress and pain while nourishing the skin.

Also renowned for its beauty and luxury, the French Lick Springs Hotel became a mecca for celebrities and wealthy socialites. In the early 1900s the hotel was even considered the unofficial headquarters for the Democratic National Party!

The French Lick Springs Hotel, which is on the National Register of Historic Places, has enjoyed a recent renaissance because of major refurbishments and the addition of a casino in 2006. Improvements have been made every since, and now French Lick is an awesome place to getaway for young and old alike.
