Punderson State Park

Punderson State Park is one of Ohio's best sites for outdoor recreation in the winter.

Punderson Lake is one of Ohio's deepest natural lakes.

Punderson State Park is among Ohio's most popular destinations for outdoor recreation and is situated near the fourth-largest Amish community in the United States.

The park's centerpiece is luxurious Punderson Manor, a sprawling Tudor-style resort and conference center with an indoor pool.

Visitors hike 14 miles of trails that double as cross-country ski routes.

The park provides access to three lakes, including Lake Punderson, where visitors may canoe, swim, fish or motor. The lake is stocked with trout, bluegill and bass.

A campground offers 194 sites with electricity on ground once occupied by a Native American village. Five sites have hook-ups.

Located in the heart of Ohio's snow belt, the 846-acre park has extensive winter activities, including snowmobiling, snowshoeing and dogsledding. Downhill skiing is available nearby.
