  • 260+ acres of wetlands shelter several endangered species
  • A dual-lane channel links both lakes for boaters & anglers
 

A Strong Community

The Chapman Lakes Conservation Association hosts fish fries, pancake breakfasts, and a Fourth of July flotilla—an identity that supports long-term property value. That community spirit extends to lake and watershed stewardship, with local lake associations partnering with The Watershed Foundation (TWF), the Lilly Center, the City of Warsaw, the Kosciusko County Soil and Water District, and other local partners to help keep water clean throughout the Upper Tippecanoe Watershed.
 

Water Quality

A compact 4,500-acre watershed makes targeted protection easier, and a dam-and-levee system at the south end of Little Chapman holds a court-decreed, legally fixed lake level.
 

Real Estate

Consistently strong, driven by spring-fed clarity, all-sport access, and an organized, conservation-minded community. Big Chapman commands premiums; Little Chapman draws nature-first buyers.
