Heritage Lake…it is hard to describe what it means to me after 23 years of summers on this private Indiana lake located in the west central part only 30 miles from Indianapolis. 23 years of watching scenes like the one pictured above surrounded by family and friends while my dad plays his patriotic anthems on his accordian! Watching three times the usual fireworks show because there are the fireworks in the air, the refections on the water and the red, green and white boat lights filling the lake as far as you can see. The kids sit around the fire waiting to do our own display over the water after the boats have headed for home…and you don’t have to fight any traffic to get home! You’re there, lakeside Indiana, knowing tomorrow will include boating, water skiing, fishing and more. So, I’m wondering, what did you do this summer? There is still time for you to finish this one off right! Gorgeous sunsets still put on a spectacular close to each day over the lakefront. The water is warm enough for swimming. This fish are biting. The leaves will change and reflect on the Heritage Lake waterfront for natures most spectacular show! Winter is gorgeous as well and I love being on the ice and ice fishing myself, although that’s not for everyone. Heritage Lake is 320 acres and 2 1/2 miles long for skiing, there is a brand new pool being built at the clubhouse, we have 3 sandy beaches, marina with gas pump lakeside, nature preserves, parks and picnic areas and the lake is stocked with several varieties of fish for some of the best fishing in Indiana.  Since Heritage Lake is private, everyone using the lake has a vested interest in the lake and we do not experience the crowds of the public resevoirs. Brouhard Realtors have been the Heritage Lake experts since 1987. It is our privilage to help you find your perfect lakehouse escape or year ’round lake home! 

Brouhard Realtors has been around for awhile…even my youthful self, as much as I hate to admit it, has been out here living the Heritage Lake dream for over 22 years! This past Sunday was one of our best open house showings to date with over 23 groups visiting one of our listings! It seems our gorgeous lake is not the secret it was years ago! Now is one of the best time to buy at this Indiana lake that we’ve ever seen.  There are some fantastic lakehomes available in all price ranges. We pended 60 Jefferson Valley yesterday and are working on some additional offers. Our lake is just spectacular right now. I’ve been watching our resident Kingfisher on a daily basis. The Kingfisher is a curious bird. It sits in our tree looking out over the water and then darts straight down into the water coming back up into the tree with a small fish in its’ mouth. I watch it swallow the fish whole and then he does it all over again. I read in my bird book that they regurgitate small balls of the non-digestible parts of the fish/crawdad etc. I also watch several Great Blue Herrons, Bald Eagles, Peregrine Falcons, Hummingbirds and more almost daily out of my windows. But my favorite is the Kingfisher. I can hear his unique call from inside my home and I look out and there he is ready to show off his perfect skills. That is the beauty of Heritage Lake!  Having lived here since I was 24 year of age, I’ve been able to experience so many different phases of lake living from being the one on the water skis and tubes to only being the spotter, from enjoying the party times on the water to enjoying watching other people party through my window, from the quiet weekdays when there are only a few boats on the water watching the varied and beautiful birds and wildlife quietly go about their daily lives to the hustle and bustle of numerous teenage boys tromping in and out of the house, on and off the boat.  I’ve pulled in many a fish, but nothing compares to the looks on my son’s faces when they come running into the house with a nice fish on their line………………… My back is really bad and I can’t actively do a lot of the things I love to do but I am so happy to be somewhere so beautiful where I can enjoy so many special and wonderful things in spite of my limitations. Regardless of your age, abilities, or disabilities…there is something special for everyone at Heritage Lake Indiana!
