It's hard to find a decent boyfriend or girlfriend at a college that is notorious for partying and one-night stands, but if you're one of the lucky few, Chico has many great dating spots sure to make sparks fly.

Chico State University student Michelle Olson likes to go hiking at Upper Bidwell Park for a date.

"It is so beautiful and romantic out there," Olson said. "It sets the tone for the date."

Graduate student John Wright said his favorite date in Chico was tubing down the Sacramento River.

"We spent three hours just drifting down the river and talking," Wright said. "By the end of the day I had fallen in love."

Heather Stone, who said she isn't the outdoors type, likes to take her dates to Sultan's Bistro for great Greek food and belly dancing for entertainment.

"This place is so cool," Stone said. "When I come here it reminds me of my trip to Greece and the hot guy I ate with there."

No matter how short or long your relationship is, you can be sure to find something to do with your time in Chico.
