Heritage Lake Indiana Why Would You Want to be Anywhere Else?

heritage lake bass

Heritage Lake…as I gazed out the window this morning there were two bald eagles sitting in the tree across the way and I watched one swoop down over the water to catch a fish.  Then I looked out the other direction just a little later to see two swans swimming peacefully in the chilly water with the newly fallen snow in the background.  The ducks were out as usual, diving down and bobbing up again.  Then I got an email from my brother about the big catch he had out here on Thanksgiving.  He said, Here are some pictures from when my friend Bill and I fished Heritage Lake the day after Thanksgiving. Water temperature was 37 degrees. I caught 2 19″ bass (One 3 1/2 lbs, one 3 3/4 lbs). 3 of the pictures are of these 2 fish. Also caught 8 other bass. most were 14-16″ Earlier we were catching white bass in the deepest water in the lake (about 35 ft deep). One about 13″ is shown in a picture. I probably caught 25 or so of those, many 12″ or better before we started fishing for the largemouth bass.”  You see, Heritage Lake has something for everyone, whether you sit and take in the views or actively fish for the big catch.  Of course, when the lake freezes there will be ice fishing and ice skating.  But before you know it, Spring will be here and you’ll want to jump in your boat for a cruise, take the kids tubing and skiing and bask in the sun!  You can be ready for that!  There are some great waterfront home purchases available, or maybe a lakefront lot would be good.  As a lot owner you can build whenever you want to and still enjoy the lake in the meantime!   The campgrounds would are available to property owners as well as a boat slip at the marina for $550 season!  Heritage Lake is only 30 miles from Indianapolis and has 320 acres of water and year round fun! Lake homes range from $189,900 to $524,900.  Waterfront properties that are undeveloped range from $119,900 to $189,900.  Offshore properties are quite affordable and offer lakefront access at several lakeside common areas.  There are boat slips at the marina.  The clubhouse complex on the water has a beach, beach volleyball, tennis courts and sports complex.  The marina has waterfront gas pumps, snack shop and bait shop along with a beach and park/picnic areas.  At Lincoln Park there is a third beach with park and picnic areas.  Brouhard Realtors has been selling Heritage Lake Properties since 1987!  Come out soon so you’ll be ready for spring!   Now is the time to buy lake property in Indiana!
