Lake time could mean a lot of things, but we think it means taking time to do things you enjoy. Here’s are a couple ways that you can experience lake time in White County:

During our time in White County, Rick and Debbie Read gave us a tour of some of their favorite spots: Rotary Centennial Park, where you can go on an owl hike, or from the shore of Lake Freeman where you can watch bird migrations over the lake.

Rick and Debbie also showed us around downtown Monticello, where there are some incredible homes (one of them recently renovated and for sale!).

Grab a drink on Indiana’s largest boat, the Madam Carroll! 

While you’re there you should chat with Chris Peters. He moved back to White County after living on the east coast so that he could invest in and help grow his community. He’s doing great things with the Madam Carroll: it’s now open year-round and he hosts a ton of events (you might find the Easter bunny skiing behind the boat in the spring).

If you move to White County, you’ll find a community that combines lakeside living with forward thinking investments. You’ll find folks who have relocated to live on the lake and folks who have returned to be a part of White County’s future. White County is ready for you to be on lake time, full time.

White County is a great place for those looking to live life on the lake. The many lakes and waterways in the area offer endless opportunities for water activities, while the local businesses provide a variety of options for food, shopping and entertainment.

“We’re inviting you to come and enjoy all that Monticello has. If you stay with us, we'll take you out on the water and show you the facilities that are available on the lake.” Check out

Evansville is for the person who works from anywhere and wants somewhere worth being.

What you do with the hours you're not losing to traffic is up to you — the Ohio River Greenway, a show at the Victory Theatre, or just the backyard you can actually afford.

Evansville is one of those rare places where the door is genuinely open.
