Things To Do On A Crown Point Vacation

If you are thinking what you could do in Crown Point if you decide to spend some time there with your friends and family, either for a weekend or for a vacation, rest assured that you will not get bored.

Apart from the fact that there are plenty of places to visit, such as the place where Rudolph Valentino, the famous cinema star from the early 30s got married and the jail from which John Dillinger, also known as “Public enemy no. 1” escaped in January 1934, there are other places to see and things to do as well.

If you are here in early August, you are very likely to witness the Lake County fair, which is the second largest event of this sort in Indiana, bringing tourists and visitors from all across the state and from all across America. The fair lasts for 10 days so you have plenty of time to get used to what’s going on. Moreover, the Lake County Fairgrounds include historic brick exhibition buildings that might interest you. There’s a covered bridge, the only one in the area, not too far from the swimming area, there are tree covered hills and a wonderful atmosphere, not to mention the lovely walking alleys. So if you’re the sort of person who likes a quiet afternoon out walking, you can spend a wonderful time here.

Even more, the Deep River Water Park is a great attraction for many tourists. If you haven’t seen it yet , it’s a must and if you have, you’re very likely to return. The water park features many modern facilities but a truly unique one is ice skating. Thanks to the new cooling pipes that have been added during recent renovation and expansion, ice skating is now possible in this water park. Your children will be thrilled with the experience and you might like quite a bit as well.
