French Lick is once again becoming a destination resort since the new casino was built. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.pokernews.com/files_en/cnt/467014c94508c.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.pokernews.com/news/2007/6/room-review-french-lick-resort-casino-poker-room.htm&h=214&w=265&sz=28&hl=en&start=5&um=1&tbnid=lwUWPIKgrFmuwM:&tbnh=90&tbnw=112&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dfrench%2Blick%2Bcasino%26um%3D1%26hl% 3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26channel%3Ds%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-USfficial%26sa%3DN
There are plenty of back roads in the area to drive.

Also, the Comfort Inn in Ferdinand is right at the exit and not really in the town itself, which isn't much of a town. About 8 miles away is Jasper and they have a good German Restaurant called the Schnitzelbank. http://www.schnitzelbank.com/
