Welcome to Lakeside Vista, where every season brings a new adventure. Nestled on the peaceful shores of Heaton Lake in Elkhart, Indiana, this private waterfront retreat is designed for guests who want more than just a place to stay—they want an unforgettable experience.

Whether you're planning a family vacation, a weekend getaway, a Notre Dame trip, or an extended business stay, Lakeside Vista combines the comfort of home with the amenities of a private lakeside resort.

Your Private Waterfront Resort

Step outside and discover your own lakefront playground.

Spend the day paddling across the water in the two included paddle boats, fishing from the private dock, or making a splash from the dock slide. Looking for even more excitement? Rent the pontoon boat for a relaxing cruise or add WaveRunners for an unforgettable day on the lake.

As evening settles in, gather around the shoreline fire pit, enjoy dinner on the waterfront deck, and watch breathtaking sunsets over the lake before ending the night under a sky full of stars.

When winter arrives, Lakeside Vista transforms into a peaceful retreat where guests can enjoy ice fishing just steps from the house, crisp winter walks, cozy evenings around the fire, and the quiet beauty of a frozen lake.

No matter the season, the lake is always the centerpiece of your stay.

Perfect for Families, Friends & Business Travelers

Located just minutes from Elkhart's renowned RV manufacturing corridor and major employers, Lakeside Vista is also an ideal choice for traveling professionals, project teams, healthcare workers, and executives looking for something far more relaxing than a hotel.

After work, trade busy parking lots for peaceful lake views, unwind around the fire pit, prepare meals in the fully equipped kitchen, or simply enjoy the serenity of the waterfront.

Whether you're visiting for a weekend or an extended stay, you'll have everything needed to feel at home.
