Besides the beachfront, its other features are its [[mesophytic]] forest with four co-dominant species, including both northern [[Tsuga|hemlock]] and southern [[Liriodendron|tulip tree]]s, an ample population of [[trillium]] seen in spring, and Deer Creek which winds its way through a common ravine area out to the lake. *'''Tower Hill Shorelands''' is at {{Coord|41|54|06|N|86|36|39|W|}}. The FIPS place code is 80230. Situated between Shorewood Hills and [[Warren Dunes State Park]], this is a small lakefront duneland community.
