Heritage Harbor Ottawa
Heritage Harbor is more than elegant homes, walkable neighborhoods, a world-class marina, shopping and amenities. It's more than year-round recreation, natural beauty and access to Ottawa, one of Illinois' best-kept secrets.
Whether you're a full-time resident or you spend the weekends at your vacation home, Heritage Harbor will be a place to call home. A place to re-connect with your family, make new friends and forge lasting memories.
The Heritage Harbor Story
As the former CEO and chairman of Resource Information Management Systems, Inc. in Naperville, Illinois, Tom Heimsoth was at the helm of a national leader in health-care software and outsourcing services for many years. In 2000, he sold the company to The TriZetto Group (Nasdaq TZIX). He stayed with TriZetto until 2002, when he retired to pursue his interest in real estate development and investment. He has been involved in these activities for years, but only on a part-time basis.
Continuing his record of building solid businesses, Tom now owns several entities successfully invested in real estate, but Tom is involved full-time in Heritage Harbor. He was always interested in developing a marina-based resort community in partnership with his son Jeff, who owns and operates marine dealerships in Illinois. Heritage Harbor not only represents the achievement of that goal, it's their pride and joy.
It's a chance to protect, and even enhance, a place of stunning natural beauty. It's a chance to make charming Ottawa a synonym for great vacations. A chance to give Chicagoland at least one getaway that isn't far away. A chance to give families a lifetime of warm and wonderful memories. It's a legacy. Not surprisingly, perhaps, it's not Tom Heimsoth's only legacy. He serves on the Board and Operations Committee of United Cerebral Palsy of Greater Chicago, on the Board of the Illinois State University Foundation, and is a major contributor to both. He and Sandra, the wife he calls affectionately calls "Pete," have four grown children and eight grandchildren. Each of them is, like Heritage Harbor, a legacy...of the very best kind.
Ottawa, where history comes to life.
Lincoln and Douglas still cast their great shadows in Washington Park, where they first debated the fate of the Union. Historic homes and churches hark back to a time of ball gowns and highstepping horses, and the I&M Canal invokes the booming energy of a young nation. From its magnificent murals to its charming Old Town, the rich tapestry of Ottawaís past awaits you.
Heritage Harbor Ottawa will provide exclusive Riverfront services to its residents and guests offering the allure of a 140+ acre pristine riverfront setting, a destination marina, a vibrant Harbor Town, a luxury hotel and a private club lifestyle. At its edge will be a riverfront boardwalk filled with energy of boating enthusiasts that also leads to the Old Town of Downtown Ottawa.
