Here Are 7 Swimming Holes In Ohio That Will Make Your Summer Epic
When the local pools and water parks aren’t refreshing enough, a secluded swimming hole will give you just the summer cool-down you need. The following lakes, creeks and rivers create what we consider to be Ohio’s best swimming holes.
This river is the water source of the popular swimming hole known as Gatton Rock in Mohican State Park.
You can find this serene swimming spot just off of Wynn Road in Pike County.

The reservoir at Alum Creek State Park flows into several small coves perfect for a more secluded dip.
In the town of Chagrin Falls, southeast of Cleveland, are beautiful falls from the Chagrin River and multiple swimming locations.

Along a section of Caesar's Creek, near the Little Miami River, are dozens of swimming holes, accessible only by hiking trails.
This 150-acre natural lake features a small swimming beach within Punderson State Park that's perfect for taking a serene dip.
So you can't actually swim in this one, but it's a popular spot for kids (and adventurous adults) to cool off during a hike to Old Man's Cave at Hocking Hills State Park. (It felt wrong to not include it.)
