15 Acre
Pine Lake at Tar Hollow State Park |
Tar
Hollow
Just a 5 minute drive
from Big Maple Log Cabin gets you to a little gem of
a park, Tar Hollow State Park and Tar Hollow State
Forest. It’s a wonderful place to take the younger
children to fish. There are 24 miles of hiking
trails, 25 miles of bridle trails and a 2 ½ mile
mountain bike trail that is quite popular. A section
of Ohio’s Buckeye Trail passes through the park as
well. The small general store at the park sells bait
during the season and also offers a small miniature
golf area. The 500 foot man-made beach area sits at
one end of Pine Lake, where you can also rent paddle
boats. Children of all ages also enjoy climbing to
the top of the fire tower for a panoramic view of
the park. Surrounding the park is Ohio’s third
largest state forest, Tar Hollow State Forest, with
over 16,000 acres. |
