Wolcottville, Indiana Small Town Country Living at the Lakes

When George Wolcott arrived in town in 1837 and built his sawmill, he could never have envisioned what was to come in the town that bears his name. With a population of under 1000 year round residents, Wolcottville is located in LaGrange and Noble Counties and is the hub of lake activity. Our "one stoplight" town offers what you need. We have an office supply store, florist, grocery store, liquor store, car wash, gas station, bank, several hair salons and a barbershop. There are several restaurants and taverns. With a dozen lake choices, you willl find a place to fish, ski, boat, swim, kayak, or just float on a raft. In the winter there is ice fishing, skating, sledding and snowmobiling. There is year round opportunity for hunting.

Our government is a three member town council. Town services include water and sewer and a town Marshall. We have the Johnson Township Volunteer Fire Department. The post office is on Main Street. Wolcott Mills is our local elementary school and the students attend Lakeland School Corporation.

When it comes to housing, you have a wide range of choices. There are farmhouses with acreage, cabins in the woods, and subdivisions. On the lakes, you can live in a seasonal cottage or a year round home. In town, there are many historical homes that offer a glimpse into the past with ornate woodwork, formal areas, and multiple fireplaces. There are also apartments and rental homes.
