    Cool swim lake
    Doug S.

    Wow! What a great campgrounds! We camp 40-50 days per year all over Ohio and PA with 3 young boys. The amenities are awesome! Great game room and play lake. Owners are salt-of-the-earth and run a clean, organized park. We'll be returning many weekends to come!

    Good childhood memories of this place. Haven't been there since the 1970s, but it still looks nice.

    Great place to swim and have a beach day with the family! Clean water and plenty of lifeguards.

    The staff is friendly and helpful, we are new to owning a Camping trailer and had some power issues at 9pm- two staff members came out to help troubleshoot and gave us a ton of tips and advice.

    This is a fairly nice walking and cross ski park. It has several miles of courses that are marked…read moreas hiking, cross country skiing and some points of interest. The trails are mostly wooded. The only issue I have is that there are markings guying you back to the parking lot and they seem to never have printed maps. So make sure you take your phone and photograph the park map.

    I am constantly on the hunt for local outdoor activities, and even though Ohio doesn't have…read moreColorado-esque terrain, there is still no reason to stay cooped up at the gym. Towner's Woods has some of the finest trails in the region, contained within a variety of environments. Near the park's entry, there is gorgeous Lake Pippin. Although water access isn't permitted because it is owned by the city of Akron (used for their water supply), some of the trails provide a scenic, somewhat hilly walk alongside it. The historic Hopewell burial mound (marked by an arrowhead on the map) is also near this entry portion of the park. The geography also includes flatter wetland terrain, a popular sledding hill, and a few ponds scattered throughout the woods. People use the park for trail running, dog walking (only on leash), and even cross country skiiing or snow shoeing in season. You could easily crank out 5-6 miles or more, if you were willing to retrace a few sections of the trail. All routes are well marked and maintained, and it would be hard to get lost in here for too long. Even on sunny weekends, I've been surprised at how sparsely populated the park is. Because of it's sprawling size, it's easy to have a very solitary experience. There are picnic pavilions and benches scattered around for warmer weather. Parking is plentiful just off the Ravenna Road entrance. There are also bathrooms in this area. If you're traveling on foot or by bike (bikes not permitted on the park's interior trails, though), you can get here via the Portage County Hike and Bike Trail. I hope you'll enjoy Towner's as much as I have. Whatever the season, it's an ideal place for a peaceful and active wander.

    If it's a nice day and you (or your kids) need to burn some energy, this is the place for you! I…read morehad never been here before, but my sister asked me if I wanted to go and take my kids for some fun. The entrance comes up quickly when you're driving, so make sure you don't miss it! We immediately went to the park, and my kids had an absolute blast. They're 3 and 1, but I saw plenty of older kids having fun as well. We checked out the lake, which was super pretty (watch out for goose poop!). I noticed some people fishing, and it looked like there were canoes around too! We then decided to have some lunch. There are plenty of picnic tables, so finding a spot to sit is not a problem. We ended the visit with one more trip to the park and then left. My kids were EXHAUSTED afterward, and I always appreciate a place that can tire them out. I'd like to visit again on a solo trip and walk a few miles around the lake next time!

    Recently came here to walk dogs with out of state colleagues. This place exceeded my expectations…read morewhen it came to a beautiful walk. There's a nearby park that has alot of activities for kids, decent restrooms and even canoe rentals. We hiked the entire trail around the pond and it was absolutely beautiful and peaceful. It can be really muddy depending on when you go. Structures are in solid standing. Trail features small slopes so it's not completely flat. Great place to visit.

    Another tiny section of the long & connecting Portage Trails, just across from the Bob Sumerel…read moreTire Company on Cleveland Street in Ravenna. This is not an ordinary park so if you are looking for a playground, picnic area or baseball diamond you will be disappointed. In fact, depending on how far you go, you might be anyways due to the unsightly factories and disturbing "Animal processing" plant that you are likely to see while gazing about. But aside from those minor things, the trail offers a smooth paved path that is perfect for those of you who struggle with balance, use a wheelchair or enjoy riding a bike. Yet be prepared to sweat!!! Even though there are trees to the right side of the trail, it is outlined with an old railway to your left. The sweltering sun might give you the bronzed skin you desire but it might also give you some super harsh sun burn - so make sure you bring plenty to drink & sun screen! There was only one bench to rest at the entire strip I walked (to the intersection of Lover's Lane). If you own a pet, be smart about taking them out! Dogs can feel the heat of the hot pavement through their paws so if it's hotter then 70/75 I WOULD NOT take them for a walk here!!!! There are no trash cans either so be prepared to carry your poop bags the entire time & take them home with you. Like most trails, this too is open form dawn til dusk & all dogs must be leashed! No ATV's or horseback riding.
