Cannelton, IN

Tucked along the Ohio River in southern Indiana, Cannelton sits right against steep, wooded hills. Much of the town's character comes from its past as a nineteenth-century river port and coal hub. You can still see that history up close in the downtown district and in the massive sandstone Cannelton Cotton Mill, an imposing local landmark right near the water.

Life here moves at an easy pace, with plenty of reasons to spend time outside. Residents take advantage of the river for boating and fishing, stroll along the riverfront trail, or head up to Eagles Bluff for wide views of the river valley. Between its quiet parks, local library branch, and scenic riverbanks, Cannelton offers a relaxed, close-knit place to call home.
