What to do and see in Ohio, United States: The Best Beaches
If you are looking for an active place to stay with world-class attractions, Ohio’s major cities can satisfy any vacation desire. Each offers its own distinct flavor of fun, from professional sports – Bengals (Cincinnati), Cavaliers (Cleveland) and Indians (Cleveland again) – to museums, outdoor activities and more. One of the most famous is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. If football is your thing, don’t miss the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. For the science-minded, visit the meat eaters at the Carnivore Conservation Center in the Wilds near Cambridge, dedicated to the breeding and scientific study of endangered mid-sized carnivores. Kids will also love Planet Snoopy in Sandusky or the Columbus Zoo’s Zoombezi Bay Waterpark and Jack’s Landing rides.

Years ago on our first visit to Maumee Bay State Park Camp ground we found a camp ground of largely open meadows and small scrubby bushes around the sites rather short on privacy. Now with those bushes and trees grown the obvious efforts of the camp’s designers to create a venue with more private sites for the rapidly growing RV camping crowd have proven successful. The sites are adequately spaced, the terrain is flat and the paved roads and RV parking pads are wide enough to easily accommodate big rig RVers but also allow for the tent camper to have the sought after privacy and relative seclusion. Though the park was designed predominately for the RVer, tent campers can feel comfortable, especially when making use of the modern and well maintained restrooms. However, those restrooms are quite a hike from some of the more remote sites so choose your site carefully if not equipped with your own RV toilet. A cold or rainy hike in the in the wee hours may be in the offing, and being on the lake nights are often quite chilly. Among Ohio’s parks Maumee Bay is one of the system’s gems. A beautiful camping area close to the numerous activities of Toledo and nearby the famous Tony Packo’s restaurant (reference Klinger’s M.A.S.H. recollections) and the new Museum of The Great Lakes.

Rocky River park is small, well maintained and beautiful. It is a gem of the City. Folks bring their lunch or use the pavilion. I walk my dogs every day. This winter they added Christmas lights on Beachcliff Drive. Very nice touch.

It's a living lake so don't go by reviews of the conditions at the time people review it. The Lake looks clear under certain conditions, and it looks uninviting when the winds kick up the sand and the bottom of the lake. Yes, from time to time you will see a dead fish but that is nature. What this hidden gem brings is a great expanse of sandy beach at a bargain price of $5 parking fee. There is family owned restaurant that is not mentioned but should be: The Sand Bar. It is a native favorite with daily blue plate specials. You have to drive or walk a few blocks to hometown restaurants like Berardi's or Marconis (just dinner).But dress accordingly in shorts and shirts.
