Date Night Ideas for College Students

Dating in college is a different experience for everyone. Some people date casually for all four years, others don’t date at all, and then there are those lucky folks who meet their soul-mate in college and live happily ever after. But the process of dating is still hard for everyone. No matter what situation you’re in or what kind of couple you’re a part of, there is a date night idea that suits you. For the outdoorsy couple, you’re in the right place. They don’t call it “Wild and Wonderful” West Virginia for nothing! There are so many exciting places for you to take your date to get their heart racing. Take your date straight to the top at Cooper’s Rock. The view will take your breath away and also lends to some pretty spectacular selfies. While you’re there, make sure to hit the hiking trails for a little stroll through the gorgeous forest. You won’t know if it’s love or all the hills making your heart pound! If you really want to see what your date is made of, take them on a real adventure: white water rafting. Keep it casual with a picnic in the park. Raymond J. Lane Park and the Core Arboretum are great places to lay out a blanket and a delicious lunch spread. Take in the scenery with your date and get to know one another while you munch on tasty snacks. To make it more personal, have each of you make and bring your favorite dish for the other to try. Both of these parks are only 10 minutes away from us at Pierpont Place Apartments. We suggest taking a stroll to get there to spend a little extra time with your date. For a 21 and over date night that you won’t forget, head out to the bar for a night of dancing. Bent Willey’s might just seem like your average bar but their light show is what takes it from average to completely unique. Their illuminated, color-changing roof will wow you as you shake it on the dance floor. Bent Willey’s is only 5 minutes away from Pierpont Place but if you plan on drinking, make sure you have a safe ride home or a good pair of shoes on! Dating in college can be good or it can be bad. It all depends on your outlook and some great date nights! Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered on the second part. Do you have any favorite date night spots in Motown?
