  There is plenty of space to do whatever floats your boat. We have used our kayaks down the river and also played disc golf. There are some trails for walking, running or bike riding. Dogs are permitted but on a leash only. There are plenty of places and facilities to have a BBQ.

  Mill Hollow is very pretty and there's a lot of areas for you to enjoy. There's a beach area and the river is shallow for you to walk through. There's cliffs that are very pretty. There's walking paths through wooded areas. There's picnic areas. It's a very pretty and relaxing way to spend an afternoon.

  You can learn the basics about Mill Hollow from the Lorain County Parks website, but here are some of the particular things I've discovered over the last few years in this park: 1. The Christmas re-enactments in the Bacon House with volunteer actors taking you back to the days of the Civil War. 2. Shale cliffs towering above a river that you can wade in or simply sit beside. 3. The hidden paths that lead off the meadow to spots along the river where no one else goes and you can find a place to spend an afternoon reading or dreaming. 4. The myriad of photo opportunities, especially in the fall when the trees create a symphony in yellow, orange and crimson. 5. Woods so full of bluebells in April that it looks like a lake of blue spreading beneath the trees. 6. Frogs croaking beside the boardwalk in the wetlands and owls calling at night. There's more - come out and discover for yourself.

  Fun events, hiking, walking in the river, and sledding in winter. You can reserve picnic shelters for events and rent the Carriage Barn.

  This was a very nice park in a neat place in Ohio. Lots of things to do at the park - swings, trails, outdoor activities. It does shut down at at dusk, so leave extra early if you want to spend all day there.

  A trip to Vermilion would be incomplete without a visit to Mill Hollow! Though I do have to say that the last visit I noticed the river rock have become covered with slimey brown/green growth that wasn't there when I was a kid growing up, playing in the river. I have many wonderful memories and made more on my return visit, like falling into the river and giving those with me the best laugh they said they'd had in years. I stood and bowed after my graceful exhibition.

  A great one-day destination for the family, exposing them to nature and fresh air and sunshine! Picnic areas and a playground for the youngest.

  Don't miss this N Ohio "gem." It's great all four seasons of the year. Hiking, and wildlife observation is always a pleasure. It's a local best keep secret. The river and slate stone out crops are beautiful.

  This has always been one of our favorite parks for all seasons. There are lots of trails, a beautiful river, seasonal activities, gorgeous fall colors, pavilions to rent, play grounds, sledding hill, ice columns on the slate cliffs in the winter, etc. There's plenty of parking and picnic tables. Also, there's a nice community room and a historical house/museum with a Dec. tour that include actors and music.
