Our Heritage
Buggies clattering along country roads here are idyllic reminders of this region’s rich Amish heritage of hard work, devotion to family and a simple life lived well. Yet there's more to the Elkhart County story. This also is a realm of innovation and technology, expressed through the world's largest concentration of RV manufacturing plants and support industries.
In other words, your visit is sure to be a fascinating exploration of very different worlds.
Elkhart County's vibrant larger communities feature sophisticated restaurants, specialty shops and expansive and modern hotels and motels. In villages and on rural outings, the Amish welcome you to glimpse their way of life. Quiet and welcoming Amish-style inns feature restaurants serving hearty fare. Back roads lead you to farmstead shops showcasing the artistry of Amish crafts, furniture and food.
