If you’re on the hunt for the perfect winter wonderland around the state, it’s hard to pick just one! However, for this article, we’re going to focus on just one — and it happens to be in the oldest state park in Indiana!
A day trip to McCormick’s Creek State Park is always a treat, but during the winter months, it takes on a very special magic.

Some parts of the creek still run as liquid water, and the snow peppered around the banks adds a special whimsy.

But the most special part of all, we think, are the numerous frozen waterfalls scattered around the entire park.

Although it’s most popular for visitors in the summertime, winter affords McCormick’s Creek State Park something very special.

There’s much more to do at the park than just ogle the falls, of course (although if you wanted to do that all day, we definitely get it).

We’re pretty sure that you and your family will find something to adore about this park no matter what the season is.

Of course, it gets super cold during this time of year, so make sure to bundle up!
