For Nature Immersions, take a short walk West to the Indiana National Lake Shore, one of the most biodiverse National Parks in US. The beachfront community of Ogden Dunes offers many amenities: access to beach, tennis & basketball courts, soccer fields, hiking trails, parks & playgrounds, community garden, clubs & organizations; police, fire & street departments. From town, across Hwy12 are 2 beautiful marinas. Easy access to 90/94 or at entrance take the South Shore Train to Chicago (Est. 40-min. commute on the 2nd rail. ) LOW Indiana TAXES are a big incentive for lakefront communities this close to Chicago.
