Ohio State Parks Park Spotlight - Pike Lake State Park: Pike Lake State Park is located in the midst of the scenic wooded hills of southern Ohio. The small lake and surrounding state forest contribute to the park's rustic charm. This park also boasts several cottages, a disc golf course, and great hiking trails. Definitely a hidden gem!

There is a lot of beautiful country near Bainbrdige. I'd also recommend checking out the local Amish run shops in the surrounding area.

Paul Williams Just got back from Mohican State Park and the Resort, taking advantage of the sweet $59 room deal we heard about right on this very page. It was a good time.

I was a bit under the weather, so no major hiking. Just putzing about taking pictures - folks missing the brown and orange after the leaves fell would have loved the thousands and thousands and thousands of ladybugs around the covered bridge over the Clear Fork. We'll post photos and such later this week. Also went to Malabar Farm. There were two people with greyhounds outside the visitor center that had name tags on with the last name of "Bromfield". Distant cousins?

Thanks for the link to the list. I thought that might be out of date because of the date at the top of the page. Kim, thanks. I was mistaken. The vent is actually in Columbus, not Cleveland. I will see what I can find for a place to stay.
