Lakefront Illustrated Map 2023

Stay and play with us! The Lakefront at Little Elm is now home to a brand new hotel. Our new staycation spot, The La Quinta del Sol by Wyndham, features four floors, 77 rooms, and a restaurant and bar on the fourth floor providing gorgeous views of the lake.

Opening in May 2023, this hotel is in the heart of The Lakefront™, Little Elm’s destination district of restaurants, retail, and recreation. This makes it the perfect place to relax after a fun day in the sun at Little Elm Beach, a swim at our indoor waterpark, The Cove at The Lakefront™, or an incredible experience at one of our unique special events, such as the Little Elm Craft Brew & Que. Spend the night and wake up for breakfast at Leo’s. Then rent a boat at Cottonwood Creek Marina for a ride on Lewisville Lake or catch a wave at Hydrous Wake Park. We recommend grabbing dinner and enjoying bowling, ax-throwing, and other fun and games at Tinman Social and dessert at Tiff’s Treats to cap off your evening!

There’s so much to do in Little Elm—making The Lakefront ® the perfect staycation destination!
