French Lick is less than a half-day's journey from most Midwestern
cities. Please note: the speed limits in French Lick and West Baden are strictly enforced.
Please note, it is strongly suggested to not follow a GPS for directions to Our Haven, at least on your first visit. Directions given by a GPS can, and often times will, take you along back roads that wander endlessly.
From Chicago: Route 90 Southeast to I 65 South, to I-465 South & West at Indianapolis.
From Indianapolis: Take Route 37 South to Paoli, Hwy. 56 West - 10 miles to French Lick.
From Detroit: I-94 West to I-69 near Battle Creek. South on I-69 to I-465, South and East around Indianapolis to 37 South to Paoli - Hwy. 56 West to French Lick.
After you are in French Lick...
Take IN-56 S through French Lick, IN. Please watch your speed through West Baden and French Lick. Speed limits are strictly enforced in town.
Approx. 6 miles west of downtown French Lick is North Hillham Road (may be listed as N Nillham Rd NW). Turn RIGHT onto North Hillham Road. North Hillham Road is the first right-hand turn after the used car lot on your right. If you pass Nicholson's Market, you have gone too far.
Take the 2nd right on North West Hillham Road (about 2 miles out) on to Spencer Hollow Road. (Google/GPS labels this road Emmons Ridge/Newland Road). There will be a road sign near a tree on the right before you make the turn. If you reach a turkey farm, you have gone too far. The hill with this sign is also the best place to get cellular phone signal while at Our Haven. Spencer Hollow Road becomes a gravel road. Please note: the road name will change from Hillham Road to Rusk Road.
About a mile down Spencer Hollow Road on the left is our turn in.
Look for a sign on the left like the one below off the road about 100 feet.
