Make the Most of Your Elkhorn Stay

Historic charm meets Midwestern hospitality

Elkhorn anchors Walworth County as a preserved Victorian town where 19th-century architecture frames a central square that earned the nickname "Christmas Card Town." The Edward Elderkin House, an 1856 octagon structure, stands among Queen Anne homes radiating from Veterans Park. This isn't manufactured nostalgia—the city has served as county seat since Colonel Samuel Phoenix founded it in 1836. Downtown maintains its civic role while preserving the character that led Ford Motor Company to commission watercolor paintings of the town for Christmas cards in 1958.

Agricultural heritage and culinary surprises

The Walworth County Fair draws over 100,000 visitors each August to grounds hosting the event since 1851, making it one of the Midwest's oldest agricultural celebrations. The Elkhorn Antique Flea Market attracts serious collectors quarterly. Camp Wandawega, a National Register property that began as a 1920s speakeasy, now offers a curated retro resort experience drawing chefs and design enthusiasts nationwide. Holi Cannoli provides upscale Italian dining, while Evergreen Golf Club's 27 holes and Friday fish fry serve leisure visitors and corporate groups.

Strategic location for regional access

Positioned at I-43 and Highway 12, Elkhorn sits 45 miles southwest of Milwaukee's airport and 15 minutes from Lake Geneva's resorts. The White River State Trail offers 19 paved miles between Elkhorn and Burlington. A rental car provides practical access to Old World Wisconsin's living history museum and Kettle Moraine State Forest's 22,000 glacial acres.
