The original guard house at the end of SR 727, at the entrance to Pokagon State Park. This guard house, like many stone structures at Pokagon, was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps.

Indiana State Road 727 (SR 727) is a very short east-west state highway in Indiana, lying entirely within Steuben County. The route is a spur off of SR 127 that serves Pokagon State Park. The western terminus of SR 727 is at the main entrance into Pokagon State Park southwest of Jamestown, and its eastern terminus is at SR 127 south of Jamestown, immediately west of the SR 127 interchange off of I-69.

Until 1967, when the northernmost stretch of I-69 in Indiana was completed, it was designated as SR 127, and SR 727 referred to another short, now-deleted highway in northeastern Indiana. Both incarnations of SR 727 are or were "child" routes of the old US 27, which has been deleted in favor of I-69.

Route description

Starting from the main entrance into Pokagon State Park, SR 727 travels due east through a heavily forested area. Curving to the southeast, SR 727's journey comes to an abrupt end upon arriving at its junction with SR 127 south of Jamestown. Less than 0.25 mile southeast of this intersection, SR 127 meets I-69 at Exit 154.
