Everyone likes to enjoy the outdoors when the weather is nice! Elkhart Lake has outdoor seating everywhere, if you bother to look.

By the village beach and near the Osthoff is this lovely bench. What a view!

If music and drinks are more your speed, hang out at the Tiki Bar at The Shore Club.

Or how about The Lake Deck? It’s right on the water behind The Osthoff.

Or how about outdoor dining? Off The Rail makes delicious sandwiches, soups and salads not to mention tasty coffee, tea and smoothies!

If you’re looking for dinner in Elkhart Lake and want to sit outside try Lake Street Cafe. People watching and good food? Yes, please!

Siebkens Resort offers outdoor seating, too. Enjoy drinks, lunch, or ice cream on their deck.

More outdoor seating can be found at Route 67, a local bar and restaurant. Catch a game on TV inside or enjoy the weather on the patio when it’s nice out.

If you’re in need of a bottle of wine or a 6 pack of microbrew beer to bring to your host check out Vintage Wine Shop. They have outdoor seating, too!

Maybe relaxing in a park is more your speed. Elkhart Lake has quite a few to choose from even though it’s a small village.

If you’d like to swim while you’re at the park, check out Fireman’s park.

If you want to catch a baseball or softball game, June Vollrath Park hosts the elementary, middle and high school games. They have a great concession stand and playground equipment. There is also a walking trail that goes around the baseball field and into the woods.

Another small neighborhood park is Lions Memorial Park.

Maybe you want to take a picture with a giant chair? Try Plymouth, WI. Just a quick 12 minute drive from Elkhart Lake you’ll find this fun chair in front of Plymouth Furniture.

Come out and enjoy small town living!
