Located in the beautiful, glacially formed hills of Wisconsin's Kettle Moraine area, Elkhart Lake is a 286-acre, 120-foot-deep lake. Dear Guest, Welcome to our charming village, a relaxed destination on the shores of crystal-clear Elkhart Lake. We're located in the heart of Wisconsin's Kettle Moraine State Forest and our legendary lakeside community has been a mecca of leisure and hospitality since the 1800s. Each year, visitors seek out the unique charm of the area, its three B&Bs and its three distinctive resorts – each one offering special features, amenities and accommodations for the entire family. Elkhart Lake has grown from a summer resort town into a year-round destination for couples, families, businesses, groups, and wedding parties. Experience our beloved Elkhart Lake Style. You'll soon know why visitors return here again and again. We are happy to help you plan your stay.
