Steuben County, Indiana
Steuben County is where the beach bums of Indiana come to play. This northeastern corner of the Hoosier State feels more like a Great Lakes getaway than typical cornfield country.
Pokagon State Park features Indiana’s only refrigerated toboggan run. Nothing says “Midwest winter” quite like racing down a track at 35 mph in sub-zero temperatures.
Steuben County Park, Crooked Lake, and Lake James are other major landmarks in the county. They’re all great places for fishing and other outdoor activities. Just check out the lakes on our map.
