Unlike some of its neighbors whose economy is tied to manufacturing, the Merrillville/Hobart region is a center for retail in Northwest Indiana. Westfield Southlake Mall, The Crossings at Hobart and Merrillville Plaza, all major components of the local retail scene, are just minutes away from the Extended Stay America hotel. Also located in Merrillville is Ameriplex at the Crossroads, a venture of the Purdue Research Foundation and Holladay Properties, which is a 386-acre Certified Technology Park. Ameriplex houses the Purdue Technology Center, a high-tech business incubator, and Purdue Calumet's Academic Learning Center, as well as other business tenants. Merrillville is home to the world headquarters of Fortune 500 Company NiSource, Inc. Founded in 1912, NiSource is a premier energy provider to the Midwest and Northeast United States. With subsidiaries in several states, NiSource is deeply involved in natural gas distribution and electricity generation. If you are traveling with youngsters, or are - yourself - young at heart, plan to visit Deep River Water Park in nearby Crown Pointe. Whether you want to experience the thrill of a water slide or just bob in the wave pool, this is a great place for the family to spend a summer day. For a day enjoying natures best, visit Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore National Park in Porter, Indiana. This beautiful national lakeshore runs for nearly 25 miles along southern Lake Michigan and is a perfect place to hike, bird watch, or just bask in natural beauty. Golfers will enjoy the hilly, tree-lined fairways at Turkey Creek Golf Course. This great golf course has been serving the local community since 1928 and is just four miles from the Extended Stay America Merrillville hotel.FROM I-65, TAKE EXIT 253 (LINCOLN HIGHWAY/US ROUTE 30) EAST TRAVEL APPROXIMATELY 1/2 MILE TURN RIGHT ONTO MISSISSIPPI STREET TRAVEL APPROXIMATELY 1/4 MILE TURN RIGHT ONTO EAST 83RD AVENUETRAVEL APPROXIMATELY 1/4 MILE HOTEL WILL BE ON THE LEFT
