Clean, quiet, and great location. It’s only a short trip to catch a ferry to put-in-bay or Kelly’s island. The showers had awesome water pressure and were clean. I will definitely return for another stay!

We took our 10 month old puppy to the designated dog beach here so he could see big water for the first time and do a little hike. The trail to the dog beach wasn’t far, and was easy enough, although it could be signed a bit better. Our dog loved all the new sights and smells! The beach is natural and has sticks/seaweed as one would expect, but it appears everyone has done a good job packing out their dog’s waste and any trash. I was pleasantly surprised to find that. There were two little huts on the beach to check out and the length of beach is decent. We didn’t walk the entire length of it. While our pup didn’t swim and only walked in the water, there is plenty of room if your dog wants to swim. I’m not sure about the currents here, so keep an eye on that if yours does. We were here in the evening around sunset or just before so it was pretty peaceful and we barely saw anyone else. Any other dogs we did see were leashed and respectful. The views and scenery were about as good as you can get in this part of Ohio. We will definitely make the hour long trip back for more adventures with our dog. The water was MUCH cleaner than what you find around Maumee Bay too, there was an algae bloom issue reported there at this same time, which is why we came here instead. The water tests here were reported clean and looked normal during our visit.

I was looking for a place to swim in Lake Erie and I’m happy to say East Harbor State Park was a great place to swim, and relax on the beach. They have restrooms, place to change, and an area to wash the sand off your feet, etc. In August, the water temperature was perfect and so refreshing. My family and I enjoyed it!

Very nice park, I will be back, we tent camped no electricity. Large sites and people did their own thing, quiet time was observed even with lots of littles around. So good to see families enjoying the outdoors and each other Very relaxing!

Wonderful. I stayed only one night but was very impressed. Check in was easy. Many conveniences here and lots to do in the surrounding area. The only negative was the restrooms. I was only in one and there are more in each section. They are a little small and not quite what I would call clean. I don't blame the park for that. There are other options. I can't wait to camp here again.
