If you’re like my family, Spring Break signals the start all things outdoors; cleaning up the bikes for afternoons on the Hendricks County trails, putting the fishing gear together and trying something new.
Visitors can enjoy a full weekend or even a week at one of the many affordable hotel options, bed and breakfasts or vacation rentals, and residents might consider a stay-cation right here in Hendricks County, Indiana.
So, I've put together a list of affordable, fun-filled Spring Break vacation options right here on the west side of Indy.
Outdoor Fun
Hendricks County is packed with unique trail systems and public parks. But be sure to look at the amenities of each park.
You might want to pack the fishing pole, your pickleball gear or disc golf equipment to take advantage of all the parks have to offer. Like visiting animals? Spend the day horseback riding at Natural Valley Ranch or visiting the animals at Oinking Acres Farm Rescue & Sanctuary.
DIY Activities
Learn a new skill or enjoy the day crafting at our local DIY studios. Gallery on the Square in Danville has a variety of classes and the Board and Brush Creative Studio in Brownsburg is popular.
Fused Fanatic is a new glass-fusing studio in Coatesville and Laura’s Little Art Shop has recently opened in Clayton. Get those creative juices flowing and bring home something unique.
Girls' Day Out
Whether you’re into antique shops or The Shops at Perry Crossing mall, chances are you can find what you’re looking for in Hendricks County.
Grab a group of friends or your significant other to enjoy the day, and don’t forget to support local shops like Sugarbabes in Pittsboro or On a Whimsey in Plainfield.
Indoor Options
Hopefully, we have a Spring Break full of sunshine and beautiful weather, but even on a rainy or cold day, Hendricks County has you covered.
If you haven’t yet visited, be sure to try out new locations like LumberjAXE in Plainfield or Divot Golf Factory in Brownsburg or take the entire family out to a county favorite, Press Play Gaming Lounge with fun activities for all ages.
Experience Outdoor Dining
Several restaurants offer outdoor patio seating once the weather warms and many are pet friendly. Whether you’re looking for breakfast, lunch or dinner, be sure to enjoy the variety of casual dining to upscale experiences.
