Custom homes on the lake with housing developments
Brooks-Luxhaven is home to some of the most prestigious mansions in Indiana, located along the banks of the Geist Reservoir. “A lot of professional athletes move there,” says Evan Wilbrandt, real estate agent with Wilmoth Group, who grew up in the neighborhood. “There are some absolutely wild custom houses in the millions on the lake." Most lakeside mansions were built after 2014, offering 5,000 to 10,000 square feet of living space with luxury pool decks and private docks to keep boats and jet skis. They can range anywhere from $1.5 to $3.5 million. Further inland are mostly housing developments that back up to farmland. Each development features its own variation of 2,000 to 7,000-square-foot Craftsman-style houses, ranging from $375,000 to more than $1 million.

Manmade sledding hill and reservoir fun
Those who don’t live on the reservoir can still enjoy all the fun the lake has to offer. Locals launch their boats, kayaks and canoes from Geist Park to explore the water. “The reservoir is a lot of fun,” says Wilbrandt. “I go out there all summer, and there are always people out on their boats fishing and riding along.” Geist Park also has nature trails that go through the woods by the water and a playground for kids. Locals also like to get fresh air at Flat Fort Creek Park, which, despite it’s name, is known for its steep manmade sledding hill. The 60-acre park features trails and boardwalks through the woods that lead to kid-friendly treehouses and mountain bike trails.

Kroger to the north and famous local sauces
Locals can get their groceries and other household needs at Kroger in the shopping center on the north side of the reservoir. The area features a mix of national chain and local restaurants to dine at. Ale Emporium is one of the most popular Indianapolis chains where locals come to watch sports and eat wings with the pub’s famous “Herman” sauces. The neighborhood also has some restaurants away from the shopping centers and in the more rural farm areas, such as School House 7 Café. Situated in an old school house built in 1900, the café offers a rustic-chic atmosphere where locals can grab a cup of coffee and drink by the fireplace or on the outdoor deck and patio.
