The Whole Family Could Spend An Entire Day Having A Blast At Tappan Lakeside Resort In Ohio

When you have kids, finding a vacation spot the entire family can enjoy is no easy task. Between the needs of tiny humans, 'tudes of tweens and teens, and wish lists of parents and adults, the effort of identifying, researching, and booking such a place can feel like more trouble than it's worth. Happily, the Buckeye State is full of family-friendly destinations that fit the bill, like Tappan Lakeside Resort in Scio, Ohio.

I don't know about you, but this is what my ideal vacation looks like. Sun, water, peace, and quiet... where do I sign up?

At Tappan Lakeside Resort, that's where.

Tappan Lakeside Resort offers 17 well-appointed cabins nestled around Ohio's beautiful Tappan Lake. Accommodations range from luxury mini-lodges and A-frames to cabins and cottages -- all boasting sublime views of this beauteous Buckeye State lake.

And the best part is, the *entire* family can enjoy a vacation at this lakeside resort in Ohio!

Because not only are the rentals at Tappan Lakeside Resort family friendly, many boast the kinds of kid-friendly amenities you'd expect at a place that caters *just* to kids, like Disney World or Jellystone Park: a glorious on-site playground, kayak rentals, and a massive community rec room with all sorts of games!

Tappan Lakeside Resort even has its own Lakeside Store where you can grab gear, bait, drinks, groceries, ice cream, and even freshly prepared family favorites like pizzas, tacos, and burgers.

Even better? S'mores kits are available onsite and come with all the essentials for creating deliciously ooey, gooey s'mores over the fire!

As for the accommodations themselves, expect the best of the best. This is a resort, not a campground, and while the vibe is certainly relaxed, the accommodations are anything but rustic. Amenities vary by rental, but include perks like kitchenettes, Keurig coffeemakers, handcrafted Adirondack chairs, heating/AC, expansive decks, and outdoor grills.

Whether you come with your partner, friends, or family, you'll find sleeping arrangements that feel catered especially to your group! Little kiddos will love the bunkbeds in the Cottage, while families with older kids will be right at home in the Luxury Mini Lodge. Both of these rentals are pet friendly, too, so you really can bring the *whole* family!

Please note that there is a pet fee of $25/per night, per pet with a maximum of two pets, for the aforementioned rentals.

There's nothing worse than saying you "need a vacation after vacation" to recover from what was supposed to be a relaxing getaway. I have four kids; I get it. Places like Tappan Lakeside Resort are the best prevention for this malaise, providing a vacation in Ohio that's truly family friendly and all but guaranteed to be relaxing.

When you're looking for a family resort in Ohio, Tappan Lakeside Resort fits the bill! After booking your stay, be sure to stock up for your trip with some of our favorite outdoor gear, as it's just a stone's throw from some of Ohio's best trails and attractions, including the Dennison Railroad Depot Museum!
