PARKE COUNTY COVERED BRIDGE FESTIVAL LOCATION
Discover the Charm of Billie Creek Village
Billie Creek Village, located just off US 36 near downtown Rockville, Indiana, is a historical gem offering a blend of family-friendly activities, rich history, and beautiful landscapes. The picturesque grounds are home to three covered bridges (Beeson, Billie Creek, and Leatherwood Station), along with a historic schoolhouse, two churches, and the Governor Albert Wright home—the only Parke County citizen to serve as Indiana's Governor.
Visitors can explore historic buildings, enjoy handmade crafts, and shop at the Billie Creek General Store, featuring unique, locally made items. Craft demonstrations showcase traditional skills, while festival foods add to the charm of the experience. It’s the perfect spot for history lovers, photographers, and families alike, with no shortage of scenic photo opportunities.
During the festival, visitors can take advantage of complimentary wagon rides between downtown Rockville and Billie Creek Village, offering convenient access to both areas' shopping and dining. Parking at the village is just $10, and there’s no additional admission fee.
For those seeking a thrill, evening haunted hayrides bring a touch of spooky fun to the fall season. Whether you're enjoying historic buildings, delicious festival foods, or a haunted adventure, Billie Creek Village is a must-see destination during your visit to Parke County.
