Disclaimer

NWO Society shares general information about places, nature and history in Northwest Ohio. Please use it as a starting point and confirm details before you travel.

Details change

Opening hours, fees, ferry schedules, trail conditions and access rules change, sometimes at short notice. Check with the operator or managing agency before you go.

Outdoor safety

Lake conditions, ice, weather, floods and wildlife can be dangerous. You are responsible for your own safety. Follow posted signs, beach advisories and ice reports, and do not go onto lake or river ice without current local information.

Fishing and hunting rules

References to fishing are general. Licences, seasons, size limits and bag limits are set by the state and can change. Always check current official regulations.

Private land

Much of the region is private farmland. Mentioning an area does not mean it is open to the public.

No endorsement

We do not take payment to mention places or businesses, and naming a place is not an endorsement of any operator.

Accuracy

We try to keep the guides correct. If something looks wrong, please tell us through the contact page.

Money

We will never ask you for payment or card details. Anyone claiming to do so in our name is not us.

The wider archive

Mile Markers holds older articles on many subjects published before the current guides. They are kept for reference and do not share the site’s focus on Northwest Ohio.
