What to Do: Spanning 2,356 acres, Hocking Hills State Park is a premier destination for outdoor adventurers. Here, you'll find an abundance of hiking and biking trails, a large lake for water sports, breathtaking cliffs and waterfalls, and forestland as far as the eye can see. The natural beauty of the park is accented by the unique wildlife and historical remnants of Ohio's ice age, and visitors from all over Ohio come to experience it all. Admission to the park is free, but we highly recommend extending your stay! There is far too much to see in just one day. Where to Stay: The Inn and Spa at Cedar Falls allows its guests to fully immerse themselves in their natural surroundings, providing yurts, cabins, and cottages for rent — all with stunning views. After a long day of hiking, retreat to the full-service spa, or cozy up next to the fire with your sweetheart. This spot landed on our list of the best romantic winter getaways in Ohio — but it's perfect for summer, too!Lakeside Chautauqua

What to Do: Lakeside Chautauqua welcomes visitors from all over the region to take part in the summertime, waterside experience. During the summer, the town hosts a 10-week programming session complete with concerts, art displays, recreational activities and more — which makes it a popular time frame for tourists. The gorgeous 19th-century summer cottages, colorful gardens and friendly atmosphere of the town landed it on Coastal Living's list of the 10 best beach towns on the Great Lakes. Where to Stay: Built in 1875, the Historic Hotel Lakeside is not just a lovely place to rest your head at night — it's also a notable National Historic Landmark. The hotel is filled with gorgeous Victorian-era decor and includes 79 unique rooms. The hotel is open seasonally from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day, so summer is the perfect time to visit! Make a reservation here.Marietta
What to Do: The town of Marietta is built around Ohio's riverboat heritage, so it's a dream getaway for history buffs. The best time to visit is during the Ohio River Sternwheel Festival, an annual event held the weekend after Labor Day, that features plenty of riverboats and fun, family-friendly activities. But regardless of when you visit, you can always take a sightseeing cruise on board the Valley Gem Sternwheeler, peruse the Ohio River Museum, explore the local shops and restaurants, or walk the trail on the riverfront. Where to Stay: The Lafayette Hotel sits in the heart of Marietta and definitely captures the soul of the town. Each room is decorated in a charming, antique fashion (complete with artifacts and historic photos), and guests will enjoy exquisite food and service.Mohican

What to Do: This area is known as the Camp and Canoe Capital of Ohio, and definitely lives up to its name. We listed it as one of the best places to go camping in the state, but there are plenty of other reasons to visit — including two state parks, scenic lakes, historic landmarks and the charming shops in downtown Loudonville. You can experience the area through one of the summer festivals or concerts, or a fun-filled vacation with the whole family. While you're here, don't miss a three-hour zip line adventure with Tree Frog Canopy Tours. Where to Stay: If you're lucky enough to snag a reservation at the the Treehouses at the Mohicans, you will remember the experience for the rest of your life. The property houses six incredible, custom-built accommodations that will put the treehouses of your childhood to shame. Take the Little Red Treehouse for instance — which features stained glass windows and a rustic chic vibe. Or maybe consider the luxurious Nest Treehouse, which is straight out of a fairytale.The venue is typically booked for weddings on most weekends throughout the summer, but it does open the schedule for visitors on select dates! Call for availability.Gervasi Vineyard
What to Do: Gervasi Vineyard is (first and foremost) a highly acclaimed winery near Akron, so you can count on wine tasting to be a main item on the itinerary. In fact, we named it as one of the absolute best wineries in the region! When you're not sipping vino or touring the vineyard, Gervasi Vineyard offers a bounty of other activities to fill the weekend. Enjoy romantic horse-drawn carriage rides, cooking classes, in-room yoga, golf and so much more! Where to Stay: While Gervasi Vineyard is an excellent spot for a drop-in or a romantic dinner, we would also recommend staying onsite at the vineyard. The owners have designed it to be a full weekend getaway experience, and that includes its luxury accommodations!Amish Country

What to Do: There's a little slice of heaven in the heart of Ohio called Amish Country. Tucked between Cleveland and Columbus, this region boasts gently rolling hills, colorful sunsets, charming farms, friendly people, farm-to-table restaurants and so much more. With so much to do, see and eat, it's the perfect place for a weekend getaway. Where to Stay: The Inn at Honey Run offers a romantic escape in the heart of Amish Country complete with fireplaces, jacuzzis, and spectacular views of the lush scenery. If you choose one of the two private cottages onsite (which we highly recommend), you can snuggle up next to your sweetheart by your in-room fireplace, or look up at the stars in the private outdoor hot tub.Columbus

What to Do: Columbus is Ohio's largest city, and the perfect summer getaway for those who prefer a quicker pace and a high level of excitement. Spend your days watching sporting events in the arena district, indulging in an Instagram-worthy meal, escaping to German Village, shopping at the best boutiques, meandering down the Scioto Mile, or exploring the immensely popular Short North Arts District. Here are the six best neighborhoods to explore while you're there. Where to Stay: Hotel LeVeque is an iconic piece of the Columbus skyline, but also one of the best places to stay in the city. Feel like you're gazing up at the stars from the comfort of your own room, which features light projections and art deco-styled furnishings.Kelleys Island
What to Do: This relaxing oasis offers a little something for everyone — beautiful, crystal-clear waters, excellent restaurants, and opportunities for endless outdoor adventuring. No wonder it's at the top of our list for summer getaways! To get there, you'll have to take the Kelleys Island ferry from Marblehead (which departs every hour) or the Jet Express from Sandusky. Once you arrive, popular activities include boating and water sports, fishing, hiking, biking and kayaking, and there are 127 gorgeous camping sites available on the island for those who enjoy sleeping under the stars. In fact, it's one of 15 best camping destinations in Ohio! Where to Stay: A Water's Edge Retreat boasts stunning views of Lake Erie and a private beach, and has been featured on NBC TODAY for its charming ambience and luxury accommodations. Lounge lazily on the veranda, walk on the beach, enjoy breakfast in the parlor, or borrow a bike to explore the island.The Wilds

What to Do: The Wilds, owned and operated by the Columbus Zoo & Aquarium, is a fantastic safari-like getaway that allows you to see animals in a much more natural environment. Embark on a specialty tour, which could include wine and rhinos, a comprehensive fishing experience, or a horseback sunset safari. And don't miss out on the zipline tour, which allows you to see it all from the canopy! Where to Stay: Book one of the private Yurts at Nomad Ridge in order to get the full Wilds experience. This is one of the most unique and luxe getaways an adventurous couple could ask for, located directly on the grounds of the safari park. And though it feels like you've escaped to the middle of nowhere, the yurts are actually quite lavish, complete with bamboo floors and a spa-like bathroom. After exploring the park, retreat to your yurt and relax on the private porch, catching views of the wildlife off in the distance.Put-in-Bay
What to Do: Located on South Bass Island just off the coast of northern Ohio, Put-in-Bay is a beloved summer getaway for people from all over the state! The town draws nearly two million visitors every year, all of whom enjoy shopping in the charming stores, fishing for perch and walleye, dining at the excellent restaurants, and dancing the night away in local dive bars. To get there, grab the Jet Express from Sandusky or Port Clinton. Bonus: Amusement park enthusiasts should make sure to check out Cedar Point before or after their trip. This park is consistently ranked among the best in America. Where to Stay: The Island Club provides rental properties for couples, families and friend groups alike. Choose between a charming cottage or a waterfront condo depending on your preference.Salt Fork State Park
What to Do: Salt Fork State Park Lodge is tucked away in the rolling hills of southeastern Ohio, just a short drive from Cambridge. And once kids (or kids at heart) experience it, they will ask to come back every summer. This is Ohio's ultimate summer destination, offering a crystal-clear lake for water skiing, swimming and inner tubing, an abundance of horseback riding trails, a gigantic swimming pool, and lit campfires by night. After all, what kind of summer getaway would it be without s'mores for dessert? Where to Stay: Salt Fork Lodge offers a wide variety of guest rooms and two-bedroom cabins to house you during your stay, each equipped with exceptional views, upscale amenities, and easy access to the lake and pool. Plus, there are several pet-friendly options available so your four-legged friend doesn't get left behind!Cuyahoga Valley National Park

What do Do: Cuyahoga Valley National Park has long been lauded as a bucket-list destination not just for Ohioans, but for people from all over the country. The park boasts lush foliage, cascading waterfalls, interesting rock formations, bountiful wildlife, and plenty of hiking and biking trails to experience it all. In fact, a segment of the trail within the park is part of the National B&B Bike Trail, which connects small B&Bs across the country. The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad allows you to enjoy views of the breathtaking scenery from a train car, and there are even a few themed excursions throughout the year if you're looking for something non-traditional. Where to Stay: The charming town of Peninsula, located within the park, is a worthy destination on its own. There are a variety of unique accommodations in the area (including camping), but we recommend the Inn at Brandywine Falls. Overlooking the Brandywine Waterfall, the inn was built in 1848 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Though it has been fully renovated, it hasn't lost an ounce of its historic charm.Enjoy your summer vacation!
