A local neighborhood favorite, Pizzology brings Neapolitan-inspired fare to East Carmel with exceptional fresh ingredients. Neapolitan-style is quite simple; dough, tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and basil. Not coincidentally, this is one of the most frequently ordered pizzas. However, the signature pizzas here at Pizzology are nothing short of complex or creative. Since opening their doors in 2009, the pizza peel has been met with only the freshest and finest quality ingredients. The small, from-scratch, kitchen creates pizza that holds true character.  

A true spot for locals, the bar is bustling, the patio is a favorite and friends and families alike are celebrating big occasions to simply enjoying a dinner out.

Located just off of 116th St. on the east side of Carmel, this 15-acre park offers a national park-feel. In 1994, Flowing Well opened as CCPR’s very first public park, and park-goers from far and wide have frequented ever since. Must-See Amenities: The Artesian Well: Most visitors bring their empty water jugs to fill up at the “Old Faithful” artesian well, which was discovered back in the 1800s. Nature Trail: A mile-long trail wraps itself through the woods and along the creek. Interpretive signage provides educational stops along the way to learn about the natural world around you. Cool Creek: Cool Creek winds through the park and is a great spot for fishing or taking the kids creek stomping. Spring Ephemerals: Flowing Well Park is the perfect spot for a spring wildflower walk in April and May. Virginia bluebells, yellow trout lily, bloodroot, and others welcome the warm weather with their vibrant hues. Try to spot as many spring wildflowers as you can with our Wildflower Bingo. Please visit the Parks & Rec website for more information.

Located on 206 acres in Hamilton County, Prairie View Golf Club is the only Robert Trent Jones, Jr. golf course in Indiana. The course is settled into rolling prairie, towering oaks and sycamores that characterize the site on the banks of the White River. A clear running stream that meanders through four holes, natural wetlands, and five serene lakes placed strategically throughout the course serve to complete a truly unique playing experience.

Your experience begins at the winding road which leads through Prairie View neighborhood to Prairie View Golf Club, past one of the five lakes featured on the course; and then towards the clubhouse, with the 1830’s era architecture complemented with a white picket fence, prairie grass, wildflowers outside and plush amenities inside.
