Indiana Beach Map and Brochure (1954 – 2024)
Built along the narrow peninsula of Lake Shafer, Indiana Beach twists its midway over water—roller coasters skimming the lake, arcades stacked tight against boardwalk rails. It’s a park where every turn offers a view of waves or wooden track, and an Indiana Beach map keeps you oriented when paths overlap or dead-end near the Skyride pylons. You’ll want it to find the lakeside rides, funnel-cake stands, and show pavilions that hide behind the coasters.

Watch the bridge bottleneck near the suspension walkway—it’s a crowd magnet at sunset when the lights flicker on. Old-timers still hum the “There’s more than corn in Indiana” jingle as they cross.

Indiana Beach began as Ideal Beach in 1926, created by Earl Spackman as a lakeside retreat with a bathhouse, boat rentals, and a sandy beach on Lake Shafer. The park expanded through the decades, adding amusement rides, a casino, and famous ballrooms that hosted major musical acts, and was renamed Indiana Beach in 1952 by Spackman’s son. Ownership changed hands multiple times after 2008, with the park surviving closure threats and reopening in 2020 under new management.
