Centered in the middle of a triangle between Indianapolis, Indiana, Cincinnati, Ohio, and Louisville, Kentucky, we have much to offer visitors in the peaceful countryside. Relax in one of our beautiful bed and breakfasts, historic inn or hotel and spend your days at one of our spring, summer, or fall events like the Bluegrass Festival. We are home to the Versailles State Park where you can fish, go boating, slide into the swimming pool, camp, go horseback riding, or take a hike. Enjoy the annual Bluegrass Festival the first weekend of October. The small Indiana basketball team that inspired the movie "Hoosiers" is from Milan, and the history lives on at the Milan '54 Basketball Museum. Visit the state-of-the-art Ertel Cellars Winery, where wine is handcrafted from the vines to the wines. See wine being made as you enjoy lunch or dinner. Spend a week or weekend in Friendship at one of the National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association's annual events, reliving a time in the 17-1800s or learn to shoot a muzzle loading rifle. Plan to re-live memories and find great deals at our antique shops, or find something special at a specialty, gift, or floral shop. Pack up the car and head to Ripley County and journey down roads less traveled where adventures await you.
