The trails here are great! The nature views are amazing. This is a great park all year around for hiking.
You reach the beach by entering the East Harbor State Park (campground).
It's a nice park, but the camp sites are REALLY close together. On holiday weekends, it can be very loud and busy. If you are looking for quiet and relaxing, this is not necessarily the place.
The campground is beautiful as well, but that review is for another time!
Beautiful park. Lots of wildlife. Busy in summer but very calm and pleasant during off season.
East Harbor State Park is a gem within the state of Ohio! The beach is beautiful, especially at the time of sunrise and sunset. There are small shells to be found if you look and if you enjoy walking in the water, you'll love it here because you can walk out several hundred feet to the breakers and the water (most times of the year) only comes up to your chest (if you're at least 4 feet tall). There are small waves, so you can enjoy the lovely sound of the water, but the waves aren't so big that they take out sand castles on the beach, so you see many being worked on by both adults and children.
We love it here and have made several day trips to relax and enjoy some family time.
You'll find picnic tables along the beach area (above the sandy area), so families bring lunch and stay the day.
Seagulls are on the beach when it's not so busy (try September!).
I was very happy with my camping experience here. We camped on 4th of July weekend and were glad we came here instead of Put-In-Bay/Kelley's Island. It was not nearly as crowded, sites are a good size, very clean bathrooms and showers, a great bike trail along the lake, beach and a great camp store and delicious ice cream! Seems like a great place to bring kids, too!
Bathrooms are well done for an outdoor location. Doors on the bathroom stalls, flush toilets and running water (sinks). Outside the bathrooms are spigots to wash off your feet or rinse off completely (high spigots and low spigots).
