Lafayette/West Lafayette/Purdue University: These areas will have the most dining and activity options of all the towns Horseshoe Hideaway is close to.

Downtown Lafayette has lots of great bar and dining options in the downtown area with a cool walking bridge into West Lafayette over the Wabash River. There is a great farmers market every Saturday from May - October. Lafayette has many festivals during the spring and summer months. The Tippecanoe Amphitheater offers some concerts during the summer and has hiking trails.
