Lake Everett, IN

Lake Everett is a tiny farming community in northeastern Indiana, home to fewer than 400 people about 15 miles from Fort Wayne. Take State Road 1 north from I-69 to reach this rural spot surrounded by cornfields and scattered woods. Most visitors are locals making short trips within Allen County, though some come from Fort Wayne for the area's quiet pace. The town's namesake lake still draws weekend anglers hoping to catch bluegill and bass from its peaceful waters.
