==History==
The area was first inhabited by the Potawatomi Indians and they named the area “Me-shay-way-odeh-ni-bis”, or Great Elk Heart Lake, because the lake resembles an elk's heart. Few people traveled to the area until the 1860s when the Mississippi Railroad came to Glenbeulah, making it possible for them to take a stagecoach the rest of the way to Elkhart. In 1872 the Milwaukee and Northern Railroad came into Elkhart and brought more travelers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= History-Legends )〕 The area was incorporated as Elkhart Lake in 1894.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin )〕
