South Shore Cities and Towns

Just a 30-minute drive from downtown Chicago, Lake County provides an array of  "places to see and things to do." Enjoy the excitement of the casino boats or outdoor adventures along the shoreline. From city life to small town fun there is something for everyone within our neighboring communities.

The county's 19 communities offer a rich blend of culture and diversity and each has something unique to offer its visitors. Travel to Gary for a Railcats baseball game or head to Hobart for a day of shopping heaven. Make sure to stop by one of the county's excellent restaurants or enjoy top name entertainment at the Star Plaza Theatre in Merrillville. Seeking thrills, try your lucky hand in a game of blackjack at our four-lakefront casino boats.

Recreation or relaxation, it is all here in Lake County, Indiana. For more information or assistance in travel planning, family packages and historic gateways call 1-800-ALL-LAKE.
