Welcome to the South Shore

Indiana's Governor, Eric J. Holcomb, has created a roadmap to safely reopen Indiana while remaining vigilant about protecting everyone's health and well-being. Indiana's five stage plan to get Indiana back on track includes guidelines and suggested reopening dates for Hoosier businesses.

We are continuously updating the information on our site to the best of our abilities but we also recommend calling ahead or viewing social media posts for the latest information.

We can't wait to welcome you to the picture-perfect shores of Lake Michigan and surrounding natural areas, hundreds of miles of bike and water trails as well as our restaurants, breweries and wineries.
