Indian Lake State Park

Located in west-central Ohio, Indian Lake State Park was the first stop on our journey south. This 800 acre park offers a variety of activities from camping to fishing and many more. The campsites have power with some having full service. The 5,100 acre man-made lake offers a variety of water related sporting activities.

The region around Indian Lake was a cluster of natural lakes on the Great Miami River. As the glaciers left Ohio back in the ice age chucks of ice broke free, melted and formed water-filled depressions called kettle lakes resulting in shallow marshy natural lakes.

Because of it's close proximity to the Miami River, Indian Lake became part of the trade route from the Ohio River to Lake Erie.

After a long drive and an hour plus wait on the Bluewater Bridge in Sarnia the two day stopover is welcomed. My intent is to explore the New Bremen area with a tour of the Airstream Factory.
