Visiting Elkhart, Indiana

A member of Elkart County, Elkhart is found in northern Indiana, only a half hour east of South Bend. Pack up the kids and head over to the Potawatomi Zoo - open for the year some April and providing a day of fun for the little ones. Check out the exhibits and displays at the Midwest Museum of American Art, or take in a tranquil motorcycle ride through the Indiana countryside.

Guests of the Best Western hotel in Elkhart enjoy zipping around town along the I-80, and frequent trips into South Bend, home of the iconic institution, the University of Norte Dame. When traveling in the fall, be sure to visit Norte Dame Stadium and take in some hard-hitting, college football action. Fans of the college game love a trip through the College Football Hall of Fame. Once on campus, take a stroll around the Snite Musuem of Art for a look at artifacts from 19th century Plains Indians. Visit Elkhart and enjoy.
