The Aquatic Center’s water slide
Do you find yourself looking for the perfect antidote to the winter blues beginning to creep in now that the holidays are over? Nothing screams summer fun like a trip down a waterslide and a splash in the pool. But you don�t need to wait until the weather warms up. Just head inside to the indoor aquatic center at the Abe Martin Lodge in Brown County State Park.
I got to join in the fun recently with my toddler and husband. My son had a blast running around the�shallow splash area, where he could duck in and out of fountains. He relaxed in our arms as we floated down the small lazy river area on noodle floats. And he loved watching his mom and dad take turns flying down the water slide.
Passes to the aquatic center are complementary if you book a night at the Lodge. If an overnight stay isn�t in your 2011 budget (since we�re all still sticking to those New Year�s resolutions, right?), you can typically buy a day pass to visit the aquatic center for $15 per person. If you plan to visit for the day only, call 812-988-4418 in advance because day passes aren�t available when the Inn is fully booked.
The Lodge is part of the network of inns at seven of Indiana�s state parks. I�ve stayed in several over the years, and they have all made for a comfortable and relaxing family getaway. From now through February 24, 2011, you can get two nights at any of the inns for the price of one if you book Sunday through Thursday (some blackout dates may apply). Call 1-877-LODGES1 to make a reservation.
