I'm hoping that a wise Midwestern Flyertalker can help with this request:

My friend is getting married in Indianpolis in August and has asked me to help find a place to spend his wedding night. The ideal place would meet the following criteria:

1) Someplace small and unique. More like a bed and breakfast than a hotel.
2) Someplace pretty and quiet.
3) Somewhere between Indianapolis and Gnaw Bone, IN (the honeymoon site which I gather is close to Bloomington).

Unfortunately, I've only been to Indianapolis once in my life, and the Adams Mark I stayed at didn't exactly get my romantic juices flowing. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

It's a hotel, not a B&B, but one of the penthouse suites at the Canterbury Hotel might fit the bill:

Hi,
A friend of mine recently told me that her sister and brother-in-law have a B& B in Nashville, IN (Brown County), which is a hop skip and a jump from Gnaw Bone. I haven't stayed there yet but it looks very inviting.
www.twinoakslodge.com The accommodations look lovely, but I note the word "rustic" on the web page, which would cause me to ask if the rooms are air conditioned. Nashville in August is not a pretty thing without A/C. If your friend and his bride do stay at Twin Oaks, please let me know. I'll be curious to hear their feedback. Best wishes to the spouses-to-be!

That's exactly the recommendation I would have made. The Canterbury is a hotel rather than B&B, but lovely, very boutique and the staff definitely pays attention to detail.
