My family and I checked out a new place today... We went to Vermillion River Reservation- part of LCMP. Beautiful property and plenty of space to spread out. We hiked the creek since it was dry, had a lot of fun! Found this hollow log... You can see straight through it, very cool!

Cliffs were awesome. Water flowed out of the cliffs as if they crying. Kids were playing in river having a fantastic time.

Mill Hollow is a great place to share nature with the kids and get out and exercise. And hunting for turtle rocks is great

Nice playground, good clean bathrooms and a beautiful view on the river! Plenty of picnic tables in shade and sun as well as pavilions. There is a lot of park to explore here, I have only scratched the surface while passing through on a road trip.

This park is great for picnics, hiking, crayfish and its shale creek-like river which isnt much like a river at all and usually only inches deep throughout, and crossable in many places. The tall shale cliffs along the river are the most unique feature among the parks in Ohio. Ever since I was a small child I could stand and hear the shale falling bit by bit and echo throughout the cavernous ridge, and it still is to this day. The only caveat I have is this is advertised as a water trail. I strongly suggest rescinding that recent claim of water trail because it is NOT possible to kayak the river here! I wonder what compelled the park system to make that claim? The only time the river would be a water trail is during severe flooding. The Vermilion river is only passable by kayak further north of the park.

My childs school was involved in the Pioneer Days event. It was excellent. The guides at each booth were wonderful, and most of them were very gifted in making it interesting for children. It was very well done and engaging for both students and parents alike.

The trails are usually clear and not very muddy. Although mostly in shade, the trails drain pretty easily and have never been a real issue.

Nice park. Has plenty of trails and the river is pretty nice. They must have been doing some tree clearing or something because the tractor tracks tore up ground and there was trees and branches in some of the trails. 1of the wooden walkways have been tore up for awile. Plenty of parking.
